Big Three Likely To Be Back For New Shot

[Legacy]

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The initial reaction to the Nets' latest exit from the postseason could be to hurl Vince Carter off a cliff and break up the team so thoroughly even dental records would be useless for identification - then start from scratch.

But the Nets brass is not into knee-jerk reactions. Barring Carter's acceptance of a stunning offer elsewhere or an equally unexpected trade bid for a component part, look for the core of the Nets - The Big Three of Carter, Jason Kidd and Richard Jefferson - to come back next season for another run, with presumably a healthy Nenad Krstic.

"You never want to do things precipitously, you never want to do anything when you're real emotional," team president Rod Thorn said yesterday a day after the Nets lost, 88-72, to the Cavaliers and were bounced from the Eastern Conference semifinals in six games. "We'll sit back, access and go back from there." </div>

That's great, another second round loss next season. How long is it going to take for Thorn to realize it's not going to work? Injuries were a big thing for us this season, but it's not like if we had Nenad, things would be better off. Carter would have still played the way he has, and we would have still been taken out.
