Figured it would be fun to discuss who should make an all-time Nets team, would make for less depressing conversation.

PG-Kidd
SG-Carter
SF-Dr. J
PF-B. Williams
C-Coleman

Bench: Jefferson, K-Mart, Petrovic, who else???

As much as people hate him here, for some reason, Deron is on the team.

In what way? Pure talent? Because he's sure as heck not making it on effort, results, general likeability, or any other measurable.

His level of play this season, even when he's not trying, has probably only been reached by a handful of players in Nets history. Haven't really looked into it though.

Sure, he's a talented player. And if someone wants to put them on their team for that reason, I don't think anyone would be able to argue with them.

That's exactly what I meant.

Jayson williams on the injury list?

I think as a backup PG, you can justify Deron on the team:

My backups:

PG-Deron
SG-Petrovic
SF-Jefferson
PF-Martin
C-Lopez

How would our all-time team stack up against an all-time Knicks team?

Knicks

PG-Walt Frazier
SG-Earl Monroe
SF-Bernard King
PF-Charles Oakley
C-Patrick Ewing

Bench: Stephon Marbury, Earl Monroe, Latrell Sprewell, Dave Debusschere, Willis Reed

Nets

PG-Jason Kidd
SG-Vince Carter
SF-Julius Erving
PF-Buck Williams
C-Derrick Coleman

Bench: Deron Williams, Drazen Petrovic, Richard Jefferson, Kenyon Martin, Brook Lopez

From a showtime point of view I'd add Chris Morris at SF:

I'm going 15. Too hard otherwise.

PG-Kidd/Deron/Kenny Anderson
SG-Draz/Carter/Otis Birdsong
SF-Dr. J/RJ/Michael Ray Richardson/Kendall Gill (we're deep at the 3)
PF-B. Williams/Kenyon Martin/Jayson Williams
C-Coleman (this is cheating, but whatever)/Todd MacCulloch

I'm sure I'm leaving some very important people off of here, but that's what I got right now. Would have liked to have a spot for Armon Gilliam as well.

That would most likley be my starting 5...

I know the poster they gave out at the arena had to have Deron, Kris is on it...Lopez has been with the Nets for 4 yrs, thats about where the cut off needs to be...If you know who inks a contract, maybe I can find a spot on my bench...then its a matter of how much ABA...

As much as I love Gill and Todd, both get cut...

with 3 openings, Kerry Kittles...Super John Williamson and Bill Melchionni...need to be thrown in here...and I agree with you on Armon...tough...Rick Barry, but we're getting very ABA here...

Oh and KVH?

Sam Bowie may have been a bust in Portland, but played pretty well in NJ.
