PrintHave no fear, Nets fans. Johan Petro is here to tell you that no matter what the short term problems are, long term, "It's an exciting time for this franchise".
In a lengthy article on his official website, Petro talks about his coaches, teammates, owner and Brooklyn, offering positive comments about each. Of Avery Johnson, Petro is particularly effusive in his praise: "Avery is a player's coach. He's like an older teammate. He played in the league so long and recently that he know what we're going through."
Deron Williams, he writes, "is just incredible. I think he is underrated for what he does." He has similar praise for Brook Lopez: "I'm trying to get to know how Brook draws so many fouls, but it's hard.' He also says that Mikhail Prokhorov "is really involved in the team and anything that affects the team. He proved this year that he will try to make things happen and if the number one option isn't working, he has a Plan B."

speaking before you think can have severe consequences, however doing it in reverse can have beautiful results!
You appear to be quite angry here. Is it that serious?

With Deron gone and Travis amnestied, Petro is ready to step up and lead his team!
Avery Johnson can go Outlaw himself.
Hey Avery: 我觉得你做得不是很好

Laugh all you want...
The guy isn’t really at a noticeable level of performance, but it’s clear that he enjoys what he’s doing, and sharing with the fans is always appreciated. He’s a good guy, it wouldn’t hurt if more Nets were more sociable with fans, like him, Morrow and Hump.

As long as the commitment’s there, he can’t hurt anyone. Hopefully.

You can't get down on a guy who gets to do what he loves everyday
While getting rich at the same time
NYDNInterNets Stefan Bondy
Under league proposal, D-Will could re-sign with Nets and get five-year deal or go somewhere else and only get three years. Big incentive.
I think money is actually somewhere near the bottom of his list
call me naive, but the man’s been one of the best, if not the best PG in the league with a legit clean bill of health (iow his knees are intact), yet he has little to show for it this far. Sure the bank account is nice, but I think he’s over that.
Every year he hasn’t been an all-star is a snub for some media darling ESPN annointed as the superior PG. He wants to win. He wants to be famous. Give him two seasons in Brooklyn and he’ll be infamous. Imagine having 10 million people know your name when you step out of your park slope brownstone?
That's a player staying unified with his fellow union members
hes been his own man from day one, and he’s paid his dues. It’s time for deron Williams to receive the attention and respect he’s earned out in SLC
i have never wavered in thinking he will stay
and doing a deal with a major NYC media outlet even when he is in Turkey should tell you something.

Lets go Devils??? SMH

Petro is what is wrong with the current NBA system...
Bottom talent getting paid big money for just being there…
Even Petro admitted when the Nets gave him 10+ millions, “I never dreamed I would get so much money” (Not a direct quote but very close)
Petro is a great guy, but he ain’t worth the money and he even knows it….
Petro may know it, but evidently Avery doesn't...
Avery Johnson can go Outlaw himself.

Correction
He is not getting big money. He is getting about 60% of the league average.
The average is 5 million.
Could this be what’s wrong with the current NBA system?
JJ for 3!
The guy is not a good player...
But does that matter anyhow ?
Thw laws of gravity don’t seem to apply for the folks who live over there…
SMH
i like petro, like i like graham. these guys are humble civilians outside of their profession. someone you can willingly want to hang out with in their natural element
but when on the court these dudes are ridiculous. He wonders why he doesnt get to the free throw line? 1. you settle for too many jumpers 2. you arent that good at hitting said jumpers 3. even if you wanted to back your man down and draw a BS foul you’d lose the ball or throw up a wild shot instead
