<div class="quote_poster">Quoting nextlevelgame:</div><div class="quote_post">The Nets need a lot of improvements to get back to championship form. THe team is streaky and doesn't play consistently. We need to integrate back that fastbreak game that got us so far in the past. It's non-existent now, and we rely on three or four plays to get us buckets. Hopefully and athletic big whether via draft or free-agency will help. People mention Stromile, but I bet he gets even more somewhere else? What about Kwame Brown? I think it's about time for a scenery change cause he can play. I rather have the Nets miss the playoffs and have a high draft pick this year than to stumble into the playoffs and have to face the Heat 1st round.</div>
Man it would be crazy, if we could get Stro we drfinately need that athletism in our front court. If you think about whats missing in our fastbreak game it has to be pointed out that our bigs are extremely slow getting up in down the court, you go from having K-Mart who gets up & down the court like a small forward or off guard to Krstic, Collins, & Smith who arent that athletic & cant move that well vertically, so the fastbreak game takes a major hit. I think having Stro as a trailer on the break with Jeff & VC playing the wings would be incredible.
As far as Kwame Brown goes, I would probably pass. He has been a bust pretty much so far. And being stuck with him & Collins under pretty long deals is to risky imo. If Brown didnt improve then the Nets frontcourt would be stuck for several years. If we would have ben able to work out a deal to Brown back in January with the trade exemptions etc. And he had a chance to prove him self here in Jersey for the 2nd half of the year or at least show some potential of the success he could have in the future then I would be all for extending him in the offseason. But it never happen so I wouldnt take the risk during free agency for him. Butr that is just my opinion.
