Nets May Pursue J.R. Smith

Well that would be a completely pointless exercise as Denver would love to match a MLE offer

 

[tim]

How much is Smith going to have to be offered to have the Nuggets decline to match?

 

[Ondatbap]

I would love to have him but we all know this is just bull........more realistic options are as follows, Mickael Pietrus, Devin Brown, Matt Barnes, Quinton Ross, Roger Mason, Kareem Rush, Keyon Dooling, Chris Duhon, Jannero Pargo, Maurice Evans, Juan Dixon and Jarvis Hayes.

I say we get Pietrus and Dixon, or duhon

 

[Kid Chocolate]

matt barnes, ftw.

i think we need someone who is more of a 3pt threat though.

wouldn't mind jarvis hayes one bit.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

keyon will most likely re-sign with the magic.

 

[go nets]

i really hope we at least try and make a solid offer that will make it difficult on denver to match. I like JR alot, and i think he could become a Star if he got the oppurtunity to start

 

[ace]

VC could go to Denver if we got JR

 

[J.S]

What's a shoe deal in China worth?

 

[ace]

From what I hear it worth more in China than here.

 

[soul driver]

would be nice to have smith on our squad. we'd be pretty damn solid with his help and intensity.

 

[SUPERB]

i really liked how roger mason played in the playoffs. duhon would be a nice fit also. pietrus i think would fit well here if he was a starter.

juan dixon would be a waste.

That is an interesting tid bit on CDR. Realizing how bad they will be for a while, they must have figured it wasn't worth it to move a future 1st for a late first (in this draft).

JR Smith. Lawrence Frank. Together. Fun times.

 

[Netsfan318]

Come home JR !

 

[J Piz]

They need a point guard we could try and work out a sign and trade with them by throwing in Marcus Williams

 

[Answer_AI03]

Marcus Williams sucks. No one wants him

It's his attitude that's the problem.

He never had an attitude problem other than w/ Byron Scott who gave up on him. George Karl was an A**hole benched him even when he took smarter shots than A.I. and Melo, you take JR off the Nuggets there is no playoff race for them.

 

[ly_yng]

Well, J.R. ain't happening.

I'm with KC on Barnes. I'm also diggin' on Roger Mason, who'd be a real nice backup point to Devon, as long as we don't have to pay anything outrageous for him.

Pietrus is a knucklehead, and will cost too much.
