Van Horn made the cut because the Nets only made the playoffs 11 times after the NBA & ABA merged. And Van Horn was a big part of 2 of those playoff teams from basically to different eras. He help lead us to the playoffs when he was just a rookie averaging 19+ in 97'-98'. And he was a key starter from the 2001'-02 team. He averaged 17 or better 4 out of 5 seasons with the Nets.

Regggie Theus is a great player but he only played one season with us at the end of his career. It was a great season but his best years was clearly with the Bulls & kings in the 80's. So he missed the cut another fromer Net that comes to mind like that is Orlando Woolridge his best years was with the Bulls in the early 80's before he came to the Nets as well.

Rick Barry made the team despite only playing for the Nets for 2 seasons because well his 2 seasons were just that good. And he is just that good. He wa agmost the ABA leading scrers both years averaging about 30 pts. But he doesnt come close to giving DR. J a run for his starting spot on my team.

The Hammer is hands down on of my favorite, not only Nets, but players of Al-time. He was a serious work horse for our playoff team during the chuck Daly era. So I had to throw him on IR just incase one of the work horses like Buck or J.Will go down he can fill in and do similiar dirty work.

Kendall Gill imo stinks, when we 1st got Kendall Gill him at the start of the 96 season. I was thinking he was a great addition because of the type of player he was wit the Hornets & Sonics. And he put up great # that 1st year. But after we put together a legitimate team in 97' & his shots decreased. All he did ws complain despite the fact we were winning. And he also had a large part to do with the horrible chemistry probems during the Steph era as well.
All he will be remember for was that he came back from the lock stretch with blonde hair like a girl. And their was rumors that he spent his offseason & lockout stretch as a male stripper or some crap. This cat over time became straight joke as a Net.
