Read the first post?
I recently joined these forums, so no..I don't think so. Why do you ask?Were you one of the people calling for Jason Collins' head?

I don't know what to say can you blame Sean or can you blame this team?
Look at the rookies the Nets pick up
Marcus Williams he is on his way out of the league. He is so bad that he can't find minutes on a Donnie Nelson team????
Zoran where is he playing again?
Wright won't even go there
Krstic was a good player but he thought he was better than what he really is. A big man who mainly shoots from the outside and can't rebound and gets bullied by players half his size. I knew he wasn't long for this league.
now Sean Williams.
Josh Boone seems to be the only player who is experiencing some type of success.
Usually on a team that is going through rebuilding you would give the young players game playing time but I guess that's not the case here
To a "tee?" No, it's a totally different scenario. He was nowhere worth the money he was getting. It also takes a lot more than boxing out and being a good "positional" defender, to be a starter on a team that wants to win a title. Collin's improvement since his rookie year, is near nonexistent. His least season, it wasn't just the fans, the organization got fed up because he actually got worse.Because solid defense and blocking out with no rebounds and no points from Collins drew massive amounts of criticism.
Not that Williams is anywhere near the positional defender that Collins was, but your description of what you want out of Williams fit Collins to a tee.

You said this:To a "tee?" No, it's a totally different scenario. He was nowhere worth the money he was getting.

I really don't think you understood my reasons for wanting Sean at the 4, if you're trying to compare him with Collins.
And then I just wanted to know if you were one of the poeple unhappy with Collins because if you don't care if he averages 0/0 as long as he plays solid defense and boxes out then what is the difference between that kind of production and what Collins did? Other than that Collins was a smarter, stronger and better defender and better at boxing out.ViNNNsanity said:He's not the brightest on man to man D, but he's still athletic enough to still challenge a jumper/dunk attempt when he recovers. On team/help D he could be one of the best in the league. I don't care if he avg 0 rebounds/or 0 pts a gamer. If he can alter shots, and have guys team rebound or a guy like Lopez/Boone with him to grab a board...anything else would be a bonus.
(1) How many of these players were lottery picks?
(2) What is the success rate of non-lottery big men? (hint: take a guess, and divide by at least two)
(3) It's unclear whether you are complaining that the youngsters weren't given a chance, or that they just sucked. Clearly, Wright and Zoran were given opportunities.
(4) To call Krstic a bust ignores his success. He was averaging around 16 and 8 when he got hurt! For a still-young 7-footer, those numbers were pretty stunning.
