Around the Offseason, Take 2

What about his legs?

Literally any mark on earth can make their biceps look good. Literally takes like two weeks, tops.

Nets will never be relevant.

My boys and I led a 'Knicks run Brooklyn" chant after one game we went to where we spanked em, all Nets "fans" could do was keep it moving with their head down.

Can't compare histories, only want to cherry pick last X amount of years, and even then - what do they have to show? Not a damn thing.

VC - never going to claim the nets, will always be remembered as a Raptor
J. Kidd - PHX/Dal/NJ - will never be looked at as only a Net

Who ya got? Richard Jefferson? He went ring chasing and doesn't associate with the Nets

You got Kerry Kittles.

Going back, I could respect Petro, Kenny, and Coleman. that's it. And back then, way behind NYK.

just went on a posting spree for me on a few threads...feeling spicy today lol

I kind of do see Kidd as a Net. Those were good teams he led.

Plus, Dr. J was the face of the ABA as a Net, but at the end of the day most will think of him as a Sixer. I still think of him as a Net first.

But that is kind of the root of the Nets issue. They're a club with ABA, not NBA, origins, that bounced from Lawn Guy Land to the Swamps of New Jersey before landing in Brooklyn.

The Nets have terrible pedigree and that's what it boils down to.

The Knicks have been at MSG the whole time so suck it New Jersey!

I hope you are aware the Knicks forced an encroachment fee of territorial rights upon the Nets for being a “tri state competition” during the ABA merger which is what forced them into dealing Julius Erving and moving into NJ after losing their best player for cash considerations. They went from a title contender with Dr J to a lottery team.

Still, the Nets still carved out a legacy of names such as now Julius Erving, Kenny Anderson, Nate Archibald, Buck Williams, Bernard King, Albert King, Drazen Petrovic, Stephon Marbury, Jason Kidd, Vince Carter, Kyrie Irving and now most decorated, Kevin Durant is hardly a “terrible” pedigree or history when we look back on it.

Nice try, but being an original NBA team that has always been in town during the history of the NBA simply makes the Knicks the home team in NYC and no amount of petitions and list of accomplishments can do anything to change that.

Sorry New Jersey

Always last x years with you bums.

NBA champions all time:

Knicks: 2
Nets: 0

Smdftb and enjoy your failures.


Talking about appearances and chit like that equates to a title. Still havent won chit in the league, still not as relevant as the knicks, and still not winning a damn thing.

When your X year comparison can read more titles than the knicks, then come back. Until then keep your ass over there in your side.

Most relevant player who is known for playing for the nets only in the last 20 years: Kerry kittles.

Like I said, smdftb and gtfo

KP hasn't played in almost 2 years and he's getting paid millions for it. The least he could do is lift weights. Dude has been jumping off yachts since last summer so yeah the least he could do is work on that body

Never realized how early, until you mentioned it and took a look. Only three of the original teams never changed their names or relocated: Denver Nuggets, Boston Celtics and The New York Knicks.

Nugs originated as an ABA team (was actually one of the best ones; check out Dan Issel)

Nets have 2 ABA rings(since we talking about back in the day) and 80% of this board wasn’t alive to see them or the knicks rings either so that’s a wash. this is like those cowboy fans talking about “ but but we won back In the day though!”. Lakers got 16 rings but still putting pressure on Lebron to win now. what have you done for me lately

But you right about one thing I’ll be out here(not on your time though you don’t tell me what to do) ain’t trying to get hit with the “easy” button again the stench of LOSING is strong in here anyway. My goodness. You can smell the 20 wins up in here

Maybe he doesn’t keep himself in the shape he needs to be in?

He probably doesn't, but bumping knees and tearing an ACL has nothing to do with that though.

You don't tear an ACL from "bumping knees." You tear it because of the physical mechanics of competing forces. That's why it's very important to have strong quads. But I didn't see the injury and really don't know what kind of shape he's in right now. I did see him in the playoffs and he looked way out of shape to me at that time.

That isn't totally accurate. You already tear those from minor shifts in your leg, which occur when landing awkwardly or especially when slightly slipping, but also bumping knees of course.

Quads obviously help, but in those moments only take you so far and if there is a slight letdown or bump, your ACL may quickly become history. Personally I wouldn't suggest that a bull like Cousins has issues with lower body strength at all.
