PrintThe Springfield Armor will open their third season --and their first as a Nets hybrid-- in Springfield at 7 p.m. Friday vs. the Maine Red Claws, the Celtics affiliate. The Nets assumed control of basketball operations in May, promoting Milton Lee to GM and hiring Bob MacKinnon and Chris Carawell as coaches.
The game will be played at the MassMutual Center in Springfield and be available on NBA Futurecast and ESPN 1450. Among the players who the Armor brass have high hopes for are returning veterans L.D. Williams and JamesOn Curry, and rookie Jonathan Thomas, all swingmen. The Armor will be undersized until the return of 6'10" Chris Taft, who was waived but can return to Springfield once he recovers from a knee injury.

JWill is better off staying in Poland for a while, even if lockout ends soon.
Except he also would need to sign his 1st NBA contract, ASAP.
Maybe they send someone to Poland for his signature.

DWill wrote recently that if there was an agreement reached, it would take several weeks (at least) during which time he would still be playing in Turkey.
Is DWill incorrect? There would certainly have to be a formal CBA in writing before European players would be returning, including JWill. It could all fall apart, until it is final.
after ratification.
