Farmar Out of Nets' Rotation

Avery Johnson confirmed what has become evident by reading box scores: Jordan Farmar is out of the rotation, the coach preferring Sundiata Gaines as Deron Williams' substitute and sidekick. Nothing personal, said the coach.

"It’s just an unfortunate that everybody can’t play. But since this is a season of a lot of games in a short period of time everybody has to stay ready," said Johnson. "It’s the way it is. It’s the ebbs and flows of the .season."

Farmar played well enough last season, backing up Devin Harris and then Deron Williams. In one game he had 17 assists, in another 28 points. During the lockout, he starred for Maccabi Tel Aviv, being named the Euroleague Player of the Week. In other Jordan news, Jordan Williams is likely to suit up Monday vs. the Pacers.

I feel like he didnt even get his chance this season to prove he can have value to our current roster

meanwhile people like Ammo and Djames got plenty of time and have proved that at this time they are not ready for the minutes they are getting. Why not try him out?

i assume King wants to keep Farmar around incase of injury?

otherwise i dont see why Philly wouldnt trade Nocioni for Farmar

Noc makes $2.6 mil more than Farmar and has a team option for next season, not sure how they could make trade work because of the extra $ Noc makes

Based on his profile coming to the League. It`s interesting to see he`s not playing for the Armour at this point, maybe Avery feels he can contribute somehow?

Well I know he has soft hands which is key becasue our bigs can't finish around the rim

I know he can rebound which usually translates well to the NBA all about him being ready and in shape pretty much. But that fact that he was not sent down might be a good sign.

Dude is to much of an offensive liability right now to be starting. Every time he has the ball in his hands he either gets blocked or turn it over. More frustrating than watching Petro post-up.

Deshawn should be given that starting spot.

I think it's a combination of want and need him to contribute.

There is a big drop off after Hump and Memo. It would be nice to see what the kid can contribute while the void is there. With a possible trade for Dwight and Lopez coming back, we need to see what we have to try to trade and keep while trying to win some games.

Shawne Williams hitting 3pointers?
Farmar is a better shooter than Gaines, but with Anthony Morrow, Shawne Williams, Deron Williams and Mehmet Okur and even DeShawn Stevenson capable of hitting 3-pointers, the Nets have plenty of shooters right now.

Shawne Williams is 2-15 FG, 0-9 3pt. He is garbage!!! I’ve said it for years that most role players in D’antoni’s SSOL system only LOOK good in his system, but will have a HUGE drop-off in production outside of it. And looking at Shawne Williams average 1ppg @ 13.3%FG is doing nothing but confirming that belief.

Last season, no one wanted anything to do with him, and the Knicks took a chance on him, and at the all-star break, he was leading the league in 3pt%. Then when the Knicks acquired Anthony, all their chemistry got shot, and Williams became totally ineffective again. He’s a total waste and I doubt he become more than a streaky shooter or has a career behind his Nets contract

by Murse Mike on Jan 1, 2012 1:39 PM EST reply actions  

He needs to get in game shape. He was sick hardly practices, was a late signing.

I think it’s up to the coaching staff to get him in position to do what he was brought here to do.

When our offense gets better, as they figure out lineup combos, they won't need Gaines to shoot.

He’ll PG for the second unit or when Deron needs a rest. We have assmbled guys who can shoot the ball that are just starting to find their touch.

It would be easier if we had some kind of post presence, what we really lack. Just not sure who is left out there that can give us that, assuming we can trade Farmar for a 2nd round pick.

Music to my ears

My ears would bleed everytime I heard people say siging Outlaw and Petro was “Avery’s doing”. Just insanity.

It was obviosulyThorn who was on the way out – and it was a bizarre situation. Just because Avery said he liked Outlaw before/after he was signed meant NOTHING to me. Since when does Avery negotiate contracts – ever.

Then you had the “fans” who said the “Nets HAD to overpay” following the LeBron fiasco..(same jokesters who thought Yi was a “star”). I never doubted that the Nets had to overpay to get scruns to sign on – but 3 to 5 year deals on top of overpaying on a yearly fbasis or Outlaw, Petro, and even Farmar?

Just B/S. There was no reason for any of that just to go out and win 24 games or whatever.

by Hey Now! on Jan 1, 2012 4:37 PM EST up reply actions  

coaches do not negotiate contracts

GM’s do, period.

However, Avery did give Thorn a list of names. All four who were signed were on it.

can't bring Arenas yet, we'll have alogjam at the guard position. Gotta move Farmar.

We need big bodies. He may be the best FA option left, still young, and would want to play for a contract.

I agree – Nets need a big (or 2) so that Petro nevers gets up – and even though I like Shelden (the Landlord) he shouldn’t play very much.

I doubt any worthwhile bigs are availabe via trade. Looking at FA – What about Powe for some back -up PF? Guy is not big but plays big from what I recall.

Melvin Ely is out there – he sucks but he is better then Petro and Shelden (no doubt). How about Earl Barron?

If the Nets could get Barnes or Nocioni for Farmar – I’d do it (not sure abouty Barnes contract).

by Hey Now! on Jan 1, 2012 4:43 PM EST up reply actions  

I see Mevin and Shelden as the same player - except Melvin looks Eric B.

Wouldn’t mind Nocci or Barnes, they both make less than Farmar. Barnes is getting playing time, Nocci is not. Looks like the Sixers can use another guard. Anyone know if Nocci is injured?

My guess is that it is all about Brooklyn..

Don’t play Farmer so he declines his option and we get 4M of cap space.

With Farmer gone, we’ve got Petro, Morrow and rooks. About 12M of commitments leaving space for Dwight, DWil and Lopez 7M hold.

Farmar is a high quality back up PG

Can’t understand how here’s no role for him. Then again, I don’t understand a lot of the Nets’ personnel decisions. But if we aren’t going to use him, we should try to move him – there’s gotta be someone out there who can use him and is willing to give up a shooter with an expiring contract.

Just four games...

His time will come, just have to handle it professionally and stay in shape. No reason for having Gaines getting more minutes than Farmar, unless he`s getting traded.

Played really good and was a pretty good sign along Morrow, who`s yet to show up this season also.

personally i think farmar > gaines and heres why

yes, farmar will want to take lead on some possessions and we’ll all smh. but gaines does that as well, so it doesnt matter. but gaines is too slow on D, look what teague did to him, just blew by him. farmar may not be great at D, but he’s quick enough to just move his feet. so i give him the nod on D, plus its quite obvious he’s better on O than gaines.

by moem on Jan 1, 2012 2:40 PM EST reply actions  

lol, gaines is better on D than Farmar.

Yes, Gaines got burned by Teague but Gaines did an excellent job stopping John wall in the first game.

Gaines is simply playing at a higher level than Jordan has for us. Gaines has completely earned his place over Farmar, and I prefer him over Farmar too.

If Howard wanted to come to Chicago, I’m quite sure another company would be only too glad to take him on and pay him as much. I think it’s more a LeBron thing. For all his talk, in the end the word I heard more was LeBron didn’t want to be in the shadow of Michael Jordan and always compared. I’ve heard the same about Howard from a good source regarding L.A., that he doesn’t want to follow Shaq and be just another center there. He’s said to want sort of his own tradition, which you obviously can get in Brooklyn, or even in Dallas, which is said to be his second choice.

Sam: Is this like when McGrady was in Orlando and they were 3-1 up on Detroit in the playoffs and he announced he was in the second round? It’s been pretty clear watching Howard that he’s been somewhat disengaged and in his head, where ever that is, he may be out of Orlando. Which, knowing him, should change 15 more times in the next month. I’m guessing New Jersey at this point with the move to Brooklyn, Deron Williams to stay and hidden Russian bullion in a numbered Swiss account.

whatever happened to Casspi?

He looked great in his rookie year in Sacramento.

just didnt get enough burn

he plays best as the game goes on and he is consistently getting minutes. Garcia spent most of Casspi’s rookie season injured. then he came back along with tyreke and plus greene was there too

James should not play

So what is Farmar worth in a trade now?

Dwight or Bust
Nets lose 33+ games this season.

One of the BEST game a duo ever had
