Hollinger: I’ve Changed My Tune on the Nets

[pegs]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>In October 2006, John Hollinger predicted the Nets would win 41 games. The masses howled. A year later, he said no more than 36 wins. The masses shreiked in derision. Well, what can you say. He knows his Nets. Now, he admits after years of pessimism, ”my tune has changed”. He thinks the addition of Devin Harris, the return of Nenad Krstic and an improved offense gives rise to optimism about the playoffs.</div>

For all you who would likethe Nets make the lottery: this doesn't bode well.

I think Hollinger writing positively about the Nets is one of the signs of the apocalypse. No wonder I saw those 4 horsemen riding on the freeway today...

I mean lets stop speaking generally; enough vague talk comparing the Nets against "The East." Are the Nets going to beat the Celtics? No.

God, I hate Hollinger.

I feel like he's trying to spite us. I don't have my bias visors on this year, so even if we make the playoffs, it's not like we're going to make any noise. So, how can his tune change like that?
