Collins Gets His Moment as Nets Defeat Cavaliers

[Legacy]

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Nets? Jason Collins is a starter who often comes off like a bench warmer. He is the whipping boy of the fans, who tend to notice the layups he misses and the fouls he commits more than the charges he draws and the screens he sets.

So when he put in a layup, flexed his muscles and grunted early in the fourth quarter during Wednesday night?s game-breaking run against the Cleveland Cavaliers, it was a moment for him to savor. And the fact that he actually heard cheers could only have meant good things for the Nets.</div>

How surprising was yesterday's play by Collins. It's only 9 pts, but if Collins manages to get any stat above 5, then it's amazing. Usually it's 5-6 fouls, and in that case it isn't amazing.

I guess he's trying to show that he is worth keeping. I know for a fact he knows, if he gets traded he can say goodbye to his starting job.

Which team is going to give me mins? Yea, he might get 3-7 mins per game.
