Just saw this on my timeline too. Thats amazing. Nets were lying the whole time saying they didnt have interest.

We may not have that much shooting but Nets just got VERY athletic.

Plumlee
CJ
Trob
Brown
AA

I wonder who's minutes he takes?

Sure is. He should be in uniform tonite.

Please let this kid give us something, maybe he just needs to right team and coach.

beat me to it, didn't notice this. just deleted the thread i started. I don't have the highest expectations, but he is young, athletic, will help on the boards, and we need help here.

I think Hollins starting Joe at the 4 last game and his post game comments were a message to King to get him help.

I really like this, we're now a lot more athletic and have the bodies to play big, small, and everything in between.

I hope this is just a wrong fit situation, that he wasn't given the right cut in his previous situation.

I think the past two deals for Thad and TRob allow us to play a style more suited to Hollins and the other personnel we have

10-day contract, and apparently he hasn't officially signed... He clears waivers tomorrow. So I don't think he dresses tonight.

Our average age has dropped drastically from what we had at the beginning of the season with Kirilenko and KG. All we have to do is get some consistent lineups going and we can make a playoff push while retooling/developing players.

He wont clear waivers till tommorow and only is signing a 10day.

He really hasn't gotten a fair chance thus far. Sacramento traded him for no reason, Houston traded him to clear cap space for Dwight, Portland traded him to get an elite SG. He just needs a fair opportunity. Excited to have him.

Tim Bontemps and Netincome both have terrible sources it seems.

Its a shame reporters of the team always get scooped by Woj.

Bontemps is so smug, it hurts.

I suggested Brook should come off the bench to give our 2nd unit a scoring punch earlier in the year. He called me insane and said it would never happen. The organization is too invested in Brook. Less than a month later he wrote an article about why Brook should come off the bench and why it's not a bad idea. :lol:

Post #16 » by **CalamityX12** » Mon Feb 23, 2015 7:11 pm

10 day? hope he gets a fair shot.... got to be optimistic... I bet he'll sign for the whole season.... bet he goes guarantee after one practice lol...

Plumlee, TY, Trob...that's an athletic front court, Dwill must be doing backflips...

As a reply to that article, you should've posted your twitter conversation with him saying it would never happen lol.

Was/am still hoping for Blatche but I'll take this in the meanwhile.

We still don't have any bigs that can really shoot.

Agreed. Blatche is at least a threat to shoot from 10-15ft. T-Rob is really just an undersized PF who scores on garbage plays.
