Now that DA's going to be out 2-4 weeks with that thigh contusion, who's gonna take over the backup point position?</p>

Talk about being bit by the injury bug....</p>
 
Antoine Wright played a little in preseason.</p>

Are we gonna sign someone?</p>
 
Well Kidd is obviously going to play a lot more minutes which sucks.</p>

I'm guessing a 15 day contract is going to get dished out soon, probably Hite.</p>
 
What's Hite up to? I know he's not exactly a PG but he knows they team from training camp.</p>
 
There are several issues in play here:</p>

1) As I understand it,signing anyone other than rookie (and that aint gonna happen) means going over the luxury tax unless the Nets dump Malik Allen before January 10 or trade him.</p>

2) Eddie Gill is in D-League training camp, I believe. Robert Hite has signed a deal with a Turkish team.</p>

3) They have to do something by tomorrow night, which would seem to militate for Gill.</p>

We play the Celtics twice, and lose two players. Screw them.</p>

Eddie Gill is on the way.</p>
 
I'm pretty stoked about this. Obviously I don't want players to get hurt, but I also want the supplemental guys to be forced to step up and contribute, and I like the thought of Coach Frank being forced to think outside the box a little bit. If you're going to have a rash of injuries, it should be at the beginning of the season, and hopefully none of them will be too serious--exactly what we have here. If the Nets are going to go far this year, they have to grow up in a hurry, and everyone has to show their true quality, and that includes the coach. At this point, the wins and losses aren't as important as professional development. It's times like these when a team either comes together, or falls apart. Which story will they tell about the 2007-08 Nets when all is said and done? Hopefully they don't just go out and sign someone like Gary Payton. What a waste that would be.</p>

Nuggets lost Nene after playing the Celtics too. Obviously the Celtics have Q working for them.</p>

Shaq will go down tomorrow. haha</p>

(j/k I don't wish any players bad luck)</p>
 
When is Marcus Williams coming back?! And I say we sign Jared Jordan n see what he's got. He was cut by the Knicks but I had a few chances to see he play at Marist. This kid is an absolute beast i don't care what anybody says. I also read about him awhile ago and as a kid he grew up in a real ghetto neighborhood and when he was like 10 he was playin againsthigh school kids nyear olds and people would laugh at him but the ppl who knew him respected him. Whoever laughed at him would try to guard him n Jordan would have him on the ground after breaking his ankles. I'll se if I can find the actual article on him but he is extremely talented.</p>
 
this isn't the exact story I heard but READ THIS IT'S REALLY GOOD http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writ...4/jared.jordan/</p>

He's thought of to be the next John Stockton or Avery Johnson. He led the nation in assists twice on Marist! I mean comeon Marist isn't a UNC or Duke type of team, they don't knock down all of their shots but thats just how good this kid is.</p>
 
Nice to see Gill get a shot. We should have had an Jared Jordan or a Mustafa Shakur waiting in the D-League though.</p>
 
Let Collins play point guard, I'm sure he can run it. Just let Kidd play 48 minutes. He is the iron man of the NBA, so just let him play. Or, you can trade him for 2 point guards.</p>
 
glad to see we picked up Gill quickly. this marks the 3rd time he's been signed by the Nets! is that a new record? (granted, both past times weren't for a long period, and who knows if this will be, but still, just one of those stats I'm sure NI or Dumpy will know) . the good news is he kinda knows our system already, so the adjustment level won't be as tough.

Or the Raptors could suck?</p>

</div></p>

</p>

The Raptors and Nets have the same record, first off and second off, do I need to recall the blow out from a few weeks ago? </p>
 
You set yourself up for that one Jizzy :'-(</p>

I'm really not that excited about Eddie Gill, there's a reason this guy has failed to make our roster two-three previous times (hint: its not because he's good).</p>
 
We should have picked up Jared Jordan!!! If you havent already you should read the link I let on the first page its really good! And idk y Raptors n Celtics fans r always posting here.. and Master Shake, just face the facts. Sean Williams would kill that Moon bitch anyday.. even while high</p>
 
Kill him in what? Playing time? Points?</p>

And why can't I post here, am I restricted to certian forums. Don't take things so seriously man, I don't even know what I said to get you to think that Sean Williams would own Moon. I never said anything about either of them.</p>
 
Yeah, I like Eddie Gill. This player is very solid.</p>

If Armstrong's injury to lead him to join the Nets, I'd be very happy.</p>
 
I'm just glad the Nets were able to find a decent (not great, not good) PG really quick and especially since he's played with these guys recently. If we weren't able to get Gill for tommorow night, we'd be screwed for a bit.
 
lol chill Master Shake everytime i post u get all scaredd.. Im just sayin why r u postin here? who the hell has the time to go into another teams thread</p>

I think he's afraid you're going to make off with all his lower-case vowels, leaving him with none. Damn Bolsheviks.</p>
