You Knick fans dont understand notin', have some patience and there are going to be players better than Martin ending up on the Nets. The Nets got Martin, Jefferson, Kittles, and many more <font color="Red">through the draft</font>!

it's a typo, i mean he is 7-1 tall...

The KMart fan is me is happy that he's going to the Nuggets. It's because I'm sick and tired of some guys saying that his game will suffer without Kidd. tsk tsk.

But of course, it's a sad day for a Nets fan. I wish him all the luck and I hope that a few years from now, we'll get something close to equal of KMart via the draft.

 

[Moo2K4]

Yea, this is definitely a chance for Kenyon to prove all his doubters wrong. He now has the opportunity to show everyone that he CAN have success without Jason Kidd. I think he'll do it. And, I wish him the best of luck as a Nugget.

Interesting...

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">In exchange for Martin, who was signed for $90 million over seven years and immediately traded to Denver, the Nets received three first-round draft picks spread over at least two seasons -- a trio of yet-unnamed players whose greatest value to the franchise will likely come when it has moved to Brooklyn in four or five years.

It's a long-term strategy that has the Nets' 31-year-old franchise player, Jason Kidd, thinking about demanding a trade rather than playing for a franchise that let its best defender and emotional leader leave over a matter of money.</div>

Rat's thinking of how to make money for his new complex already.

::shakes head::

i agree with J Kidds agent the Nets aren't serious about winning anymore cuz if they were they would not of gotten rid of KMART....this has got to be hands down the worst deal EVER for the nets....i don't get it....i mean i thought for sure that the nets would do anything and everything they could to keep KMART...but....

on the flip side...the Nuggets are gonna be pretty damn hot next season...big guys like Camby...Kenyon....Carmelo....and they still got Nene....wow....i think Denver is gonna be straight ballin next year....hopefully for their sake anyway....and im tranferring to a Denver school....so now i can see them all play....what a great world we live in

In fact, it's one of the worst trades in NBA history.

 

[bbwtrench]

All I know is that Jersey lost out big time on the Kenyon trade. 3 first round picks???? Denver now has the best front court. Martin, Camby, and Anthony. Plus,nene as a backup.

 

[InNETSweTrust]

There's speculation that they'll start KMart, Nene and Camby all together. Melo will start at SG.

 

[bbwtrench]

^^^ woot, that is even a more deadly lineup. The nets have offically made the worst trade in HISTORY

ORRRRR if ur a nuggets fan like me the best ever andu guys r idiots its one of the best options for nj he was gonna leave neway now they got somin out of the deal

The trade wasn't lopsided for one reason and one reason only. Nets didn't have a choice. Because Kmart was going to sign the fornt loaded contract, the Nets either had to make a trade or lose him for nothing. Because Kmart was under the rookie scale, the only thing they could get to match salary was the three picks. Three picks is better than nothing.


Kmart is a great two way player, he's tough, played "D" and can score in spurts. He's onrey, but I think that the Nuggets downfall may be decided by team chemistry. We all shaw some questionable judgements and actions by Melo last year. I can see that if he and Kmart don't blend the Nuggets will have tons of problems. He (Kmart) didn't get along with Van horn and other Nets players have been known to call players out and be disruptive. If Melo and Mart gel, they are a top 4 West team for the next 5 years, if not, more troubles will continue for an up and coming Nugget team.

 

[InNETSweTrust]

^^You need someone like KMart on your team. Someone who's not afraid to voice out if he feels that something's wrong. You can't play soft when KMart's on your team.

 

[jbbNJNetz]

yes if you are going to lose might as well get something unlike that orlando situation with Shaq when they got nothing in return for him. Three picks may be we will get a steal in the draft and get a sleeper like jefferson even though we didnt draft him and we traded for him but Griffen would have been great but he was fluke (hopefully he can get his act together and play good enough)

 

[Netsfan501]

i say thsi is one of the dumbest trades in history. WHy some gay fucking draft picks?!?!?!!?!? i udnerstand of it was one of two with a player, but just three draft picks!!!! this bruce ratner guy is an idiot and is leading the nets to hell once again. oh yeah and martin will hate this trade as well. He will not do so well in the west playing against duncan, garnett, and co. He needs kidd or a great point guard to develope his game more, but it probably wont happen in denver. i think he wil lwant a trade pretty soon

 

[jbbNJNetz]

well andre miller is a great pg he led the nba in assist 2 seasons ago with the clippers b4 they broke up that team that had a great chemistry with richardson, odom(but he was injured), brand, miles and maggette. now he has a team with offensive power all they need now is a decent 3 pt shooter and they are set.

 

[JasonKidd]

I understand about K-Mart getting traded and it's the ebst the Nets could get because he was out anyway...it really hurts though because I'm a huge nets fan...but this one puzzled me...Kerry Kittles for 1, yes 1 second round draft pick. What were they thinking??? Was it because his contract was too much money? The New Jersey Nets are deffinately going downhill, Jason Kidd better get out of there soon...
