Nets Forum FAIL Quotes

[kobimel]

OK, I was bored the other day and decided to go all the way back to the last page in the Nets forum. I skimmed through some threads, and found some quotes from some posters that may have seemed smart back then, but are now embarrassing. So I thought, why not bring some of those quotes back here and laugh at the unlucky folks who typed them, years ago. Here are a few examples:

It's official: Marcus Willliams is a Net! The classic, young replacement for J-Kidd. He's probably the best pure point guard in the draft. This is the perfect point guard for us. Next up, pick #23. Looks like a big man.

Our bench looks good.

Marcus Williams
Josh Boone
Mile Illic ( Pretty sure he is getting signed)
Hassan Adams
Cliff Robinson (If nets decide to keep him)
Antoine Wright (Will probably get traded)
Jacque Vaughn

If we add more depth, we will be dangerous.

LMAO at that Joker quote. I've probably said things that were just as bad. I'd start with a "GMJ Magloire" search.

That whole thread is one big fail, unfortunately.

Nets fans in general are some of the worst in the league.

I'm fat, but I can shoot.

while i havent completely giving up on nenad... i think if he needs more time... than he shouldnt be starting... start stromile instead... the guy can play if u give him a shot...

Allan Houston will be the Nets answer to the Celtics Ray Allen....

This reminds me of my favorite poll on another site. Will Jeff McInnis be on the Nets playoff roster?

 

[danxcr]

Hahaha, great thread.
Perfect reference thread.

 

[GMJ]

There was a thread made where we each wrote down our predictions for last year. I wish I had subscribed to that.

 

[Petey]

Oh yeah. I once took part in a thread were I said I thought Krstic would be a better player than Howard... Dwight Howard.

You mean this thread (predictions)?

I wasn't posting here when Marcus Williams was drafted, but probably had the same reaction. Since then, I've come to terms that I know absolutely nothing about college basketball, will not buy into any hype (including summer league performance), and will make opinions based on what I see in the NBA only.

[User01]

haha, no one was even within ten games of our actual record. And everyone but 3 people thought we'd make at least the ECF, those 3 thought the second round.

 

[lukewarmplay]

Hey, I had Kidd's stats right. And ly_ing was dead on with the all-star game.
