<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Richard Jefferson's scoring output dropped off this season, but with Vince Carter joining the team, it's no surprise. However, Jefferson is far more efficient with another scorer at his side. His turnovers-per-game went from 4.0 in 2004-05 to 2.2 this past season and his field goal percentage went from 42% to 49%, back to around the rate that it was when Kenyon Martin was at his side.
Since entering the league, Jefferson has been a reliable source of scoring, rebounding, passing and perimeter defense for the Nets and continues to make them a threat for Eastern Conference supremecy.
As Jason Kidd gets older, the chances of the Nets making some noise in the postseason gets slimmer and now is the time for Jefferson, Kidd, Carter and the Nets to show the league what they're made of. Thankfully for them, Jefferson was able to fully recover from an injury plagued 2004-2005 and return to form this past year.</div>
