When will people stop saying "This is NJ's last push" and crap like that. I'm so sick of it. Thorn has already said that he wants to resign Carter , so doesn't that mean we are not rebuilding? I really don't see us blowing it up anyway, but still. Do they HAVE to always say that when they talk about us on ESPN? Like they know we are going to blow things up. Just shut up already, am I the only one who thinks this?

Who really knows at this point, but IMO he will comeback. ESPN is always saying stupid bull sh*t, I just make fun of them.

Kidd only has a couple years left, your big man situation is pretty horrid, nobody knows what's going to happen with Vince, the bench isn't that strong, and they need to make some deals.

Obviously. He's not going to publicly say anything otherwise.

Our big man situation isn't that bad next year once Kristic comes back. All we need is a solid big man who cant post up and we are fine down there. We don't need no superstar, we just need a K-Mart type player, Rahim, someone like that. The bench is the best bench we have had in a long time. Marcus Williams,Mikki Moore, Josh Boone,Eddie House, Nachbar, Wright, Cliff Robinson Jason Collins. Thats a very deep bench, but we have a couple out and a couple that has to start due to injury. All we need is a solid PF, we don't need a superstar, and we are title contenders. We don't need to make some deals.

Krstic was really on his way to becoming a real good threat offensively with 17PPG before getting injured. Mikki Moore has been great all season (sort of like a poor man's Kenyon Martin, but skinnier and a better jumpshot), and Jason Collins is a solid defender and rebounder.Bench is pretty strong, much moreso than in the Finals years and last year. Marcus Williams, Bostjan Nachbar, Josh Boone, Antoine Wright, Eddie House, Cliff Robinson (possibly) and next year Mikki Moore will be back on the bench if he is still on the team. That is a very nice bench with a nice mix of young up and coming players, energy, and vets.Nets still have a lot of potential. You can juice the big 3 for another 2-3 years. With a few minor tweaks and getting fully healthy, this team can be back in the Finals.

All NJ needs to do is hope their players don't get injured.

You don't need to make some deals? Then how the hell do you anticipate getting yourself a decent 4-man?

Nenad Krstic (I really like him) is the only above average big man you have on your team, don't overrate them. Collins is a solid defender, no doubt, but there is no way in hell he should be a starter in this league. I like the improvements Mikki Moore has made as well, but he's looking better than he actually is this year due to the extra minutes/touches he's getting with Krstic out... and let's not forget that Mikki is in a contract year. Josh Boone, I also like him. He's a hustler, he'll end up being a nice rotation big in the long run who will bring energy, rebound, and play defense... but he'll need a couple years to get it going.

You can't sit here and tell me that Nenad Krstic, Jason Collins, Mikki Moore, and Josh Boone isn't a bad looking big man situation.

Very, very few. Most teams also don't have the 3 fantastic perimeter players that the Nets have, so it's not like the Nets need amazing interior players to get to the Finals. Krstic was playing at a near all star level, and will only continue to improve. Collins is a very good defender, and is a big enough body to give players like Shaq and Dwight problems. Mikki shot the best FG % in the league at over 60%, gives the team a lot of energy, has a nice jumpshot, athletic and hustles his a$$ off. Boone started off very slowly, but has become a nice pick and roll option and is solid all around.I never said they were on of the best big men rotations in the league, but they are far from horrid.
