oooh also, what do they do to solve there problem of not having an outside threat..they've been lacking that forever and to have a threat like a kyle korver would be a huge deal for them

that's a great call, i didnt even think of an outside shooter, but picking up Bracey Wright from Indiana late or undrafted could be a boon to the Nets. He was the Big Ten's leading scorer. BJ Elder and Travis Diener would be nice fits as well. Plus VC shoots jumpers like its going out of style so there are a limited number of shots to go around.
Also, they could go way over the cap and try to sign Michael Redd then trade RJ (who I think sucks) for some bigs. But that's just off the cuff thinking

well the way the Knicks suck Avery, the Net fans are growing by the day.

Back in the days of Knick glory, there wasn't a Net fan to be found in the good city

well being a jersey guy, i've watched the nets for awhile...even with reggie theus on the team when they had tie dye jerseys and whiners like derrick coleman....so i'm hoping the draft goes well for us...they need a shooter so i'll take phin's advice on that
