After Deron's Big Night, a Bigger One

You could argue that Friday night's game vs. the Suns was the best single game effort in Deron Williams' career, at least from a statistical perspective.
As Mike Mazzeo writes, he'd never had a game in which he scored as many as 35 points and dished out as many as 14 assists in his career. He also tied a personal high with six three-pointers.
From a statistical high to an emotional one as he returns to Salt Lake City, where it's the biggest news in town. Tyrone Corbin, an assistant under Jerry Sloan and now head coach of the Jazz, says the game is no different and that his team is preparing for the Nets, not just D-Will. No one believes that.
Meanwhile, Derrick Favors and Devin Harris are getting ready as well, with Favors saying the big difference between Utah and New Jersey is that he's now in a place that wants him. Harris says no big deal. It's just like the first time he faced the Mavericks as a Net.

i feel bad for Favors
He didn’t get good coaching in college and was traded before he was even drafted. He will be real good in a few years
I hope that's a joke
people were complaining because Favors PG at georgia tech was notorious for never passing the ball. turns out that guy was shumpert.
yes he was kidding...

I agree, do feel bad for favors, kid couldn’t even go home without hearing from his family members that he might be traded, everyday was a new rumor
I know wishing injuries shouldn’t happen but lopez going down was probably a good thing because brooks and lopez names would be coming up in trade rumors every day just like harris and favors last season.
I do believe in everything happens for a reason and this Lopez injury happened for a reason, not listening to trade rumors, Lopez comes back better then ever, Lopez comes back a lot BIGGER, so this could be a blessing in the sky.

To continue with this, my point is favors just didn’t get his head straight and didn’t concentrate on improving his basketball game, it was always about trades rumor, and you never know brooks probably wouldn’t be the same if he had to go thru the same as favors
by GameTime on Jan 14, 2012 2:19 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Timeout. Favors was traded before he was drafted?! Did I miss something? Last time I checked, he was drafted by the Nets and played for the Nets.
Melo rumors started during summer league
before his first pre-season game he had already been thrown into the gauntlet of trade rumors

I met Chuck Wepner there and actually ask him to step outside...
all in fun of course…
Chuck Wepner “The real Rocky”
LOL...I'm glad he didn't get mad at me for joking around with him...
In a club in jersey called “The Headliner” bordering Neptune and Belmar I saw Chuck Wepner demolish 5 very large bouncers one summer night.
If you don’t know who Chuck is , he is a boxer from Bayonne NJ who went the distance with Ali, 15 rounds in Ali’s prime.
Not an easy task.
He was also known as the Bayonne bleeder because he cut and bleed very easy.
My point is that the bouncers thought “theres 5 of us and one of him”
He was asked to leave after decking a guy and told them he was finishing his drink.
One of the bouncers rounded up the other 4 and approached Chuck.
He stood up and said “who’s first”
They never knew what hit them.
He sent 3 to the hospital and one ran after he got tagged and the last guy stood there dazed after he got hit with a jab.
Speaking of “Chuck”…how’s the roast coming along?
"The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven"
It's coming...
I added the potato’s at 2:00 P.M.
Guests will be arriving at 6:00 P.M.
Thanks again…
P.S. Put that Knowles picture up on the game thread for good luck tonight with explantion. I think the guys will enjoy it and who know-les it might work !

by MetsNetsGiants on Jan 14, 2012 6:16 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
That's awesome
There are some very nice bouncers, but there are A LOT of d-bag bouncers that deserve that sort of treatment.
Anybody that takes pleasure from ganging up on somebody else in an actual fight is scum in my eyes. I’ve been around the Jersey Shore bars too much the past few years and have come across lots of these types.
They had a great go-go bar at the Headliner in the 1980's
Had many long lunches there, 1 dollar at a time.

Rotoworld says...
Brook Lopez (foot) is “putting up shots” according to his brother Robin.
If he returns in the middle of his original 6-8 week timetable, and we have every reason to believe he will, Lopez will return around February 10. In leagues that don’t penalize you for holding players he should be stashed without a doubt, and the rest of you have a situation-specific decision to make. All we can say is that he is on pace to return and in the near future it will be time to add him.
Will be extremely interesting to see this team with a legit 7 foot post presence
We are in another atmosphere. You're just in the Troposhere we in the Exospere. In other words the JETS are higher than you!
by Fly-as-a-JET on Jan 14, 2012 3:52 PM EST up reply actions
agreed...
I don’t want him rushed back, but at the same time I’m anxious for his return. The Dever game made it clear how much Brook’s presence is missed, and since spacing seems to be the new theme on offense, having a 7 footer who commands so much attention on offense is really going to help D-Will work with the spacing.
by SovietBrooklyn on Jan 14, 2012 4:07 PM EST up reply actions
If he returns around that time
It will be about 30 games in to the season. This team is too unpredictable to say who we are likely to beat, but lets just say we’re around 12 wins by then. I think we can play .500 ball with Lopez, so by years end we’d have around 30-32 wins which might be enough to squeak in to the playoffs.
barring any trades of course =)
Great news...
Just don’t rush him back. I would rather lose Howard then to see Lopez hurt again on account of rushing him back to soon.

MarShon Brooks already the playmaker the Nets missed last season | New York Daily.. nydn.us/yysUxZ
1 minute ago
Brooks has definitely...
been a be a bit of a ball stopper. However, I have seen him make some incredible passes during these games. I think it is just indecision on his part which is keeping him from racking up a couple more assists per game, but he has shown he is capable of doing it on a really high level. He has the court vision, and it is only a matter of getting more comfortable in that area.
he has a tendency
to overdribble a bit. I still think that he’s adjusting to the speed of the game, which is scary.

Howard's ppg and FTs
Howard takes a league-leading 12 FTs a game. He currently shoots 46% on FTs and is averaging 18ppg. If he shot his career-averag 60%, his scoring would be 20ppg. If he shot at a Lopez-level 80% (which won’t happen), his scoring will be 22ppg.
I’m surprised to find he still won’t score that much more, not nywhere near 30ppg, even if he was a very good FT shooter. The key number is his FG attempts, which is at around 12 a game. That’s very low for him. The top wing scorers average around 18-20 shots a game. Shaq in his prime when he was doing close to 30ppg also took 20+ shots to go with 10+ FTs.
To realize his 30ppg potential, it’s not just the FTs, Howard needs to get the ball more to score, while being tightly defended. So happens a great PG could help him do that.
Even though his FGA is fairly low
his usage% might be high since he gets to the line so much. Howard is the dominant scorer everyone on this board thinks he is BUT he is more than what many teams can handle. I give much credit to Lopez for being a “soft” player for not letting Howard go for 40-20 on him lol. He’s still evolving his game.

But I think its going to be a different story this time. Clippers have a far better team than us.

Dont know if this was posted yet...
It has not reached the point that teams think Dallas actually has this fantasy double down all lined up already Miami Heat-style. Anyone who has studied the Mavericks’ cap situation knows they’d have to clear out pretty much everyone on the roster not named Dirk Nowitzki to have enough cap space to make bids high enough for two max-level players to consider them.
Specifically? Dallas would likely have to release Brendan Haywood through the amnesty clause next summer, trade away Shawn Marion without taking back any salary and also give away young guards Roddy Beaubois and Dominique Jones, while also letting free agents-to-be Jason Terry, Lamar Odom, Vince Carter and Delonte West walk.

What other teams have a good cap situation after this season?
There’s gotta be a dark horse suitor just lurking in the shadows
Only threats for Dwill and DH12 are Dallas and Lakers
neither one can clear enough cap space to have both Dwill+Dwight.
We can.

its possible but unlikely
like i said if they manage to trade Haywood or Marion without taking back salary then we should be scared.
and actually if Beabouis and Jones show enough promise they may be able to package them with Haywood or Marion to any team that wants the depth(like Portland, Golden State, Toronto, Boston, or Atlanta)
and I know Cuban isnt doing this for naught. If he has any inclination he can get both he will head into free agency with just Dirk on the roster and 11 vet min cap holds

Ibaka gets a lot of blocks but he doesn’t play enough to do anything else. Ryan Anderson is a big 3 pt threat, he scores a lot and can get double digit rebounds

are you for real? He doesn’t pass that much. Last week we completed like 10 passes. That’s why it isn’t far-fetched at all.
ya kinda misspoke
I agree with you guys I don’t think Tebow is a good passer but it is funny that ESPN thinks that little of him
Wow I'm really sad Favors feels that way
but I don’t blame him for saying it, the whole situation last year was totally unfair to him. I just hope he knows that we would have been more than happy to have him on this team. Great guy one of my favorite players hope he does well.

I have a feeling Alec Burks will light us up tonight..
That millisecond you're sure you're going to die when you lean back in your chair a little too far.
Rookie Rants!
I have a problem with this coaching system. Time and time again we miss out on great players like Ryan Anderson. I’m not a firm believer in athleticism is the be all in gauging a talented player. I feel that players with high basketball IQ and is a hard worker is more important that a player with JUST athleticism and no BB IQ. Offcourse finding a player with both BB IQ and athleticism is always preferred. But I’d rather have a player with High BB IQ over JUST athleticism. What I’m trying to get at are the 2 rookies we have Jwill and Horner. JWill was a double double in college and Horner “knew where he suppose to be in preseason all the time both in practice and ingame”. We’re giving ptime to these Williams (Shel and Sha) as backups to our starters (Hump and Mehmet) when they just dont make enough impact in game. I haven’t seen Avery use our rookies when nothing else is working. Granted JWill had a bad start; Avery should’t be using PTime as either punishment or reward. He should find something else as possitive or negative reinforcement . I feel these rookies have enough wits on court; or atleast are coachable enough to appeal on determination to play hard for the team (GET me that ball Block shots! Block bodies) even if thats the only thing they need to do. I don’t think theyre that dumb to be black hole on offense like our current Williams (She and Sean) either. Remember if your not a top five overall rookie, everyone else is really a toss up… Ryan Anderson, Manu, MRedd etc. This coaching team is not exploring all its options. Considering this season is somewhat unofficial wash, why not build value for said rookies since they are still assets.

ITS A VVVVVVCCCCCCCCCCC THREEEEEEEEEEEEE
I believe this is Al Jefferson saying this.. this afternoon...It's one of the Jazz players.
Williams now having to deal with losing: Deron’s not used to losing. But that team got a plan. They know something big going to happen for them. And I think he know that. If not, he a free agent next year, so I’m pretty sure he going to pick and choose where he want to go. But I’m pretty sure New Jersey’s going to do everything they can to keep him. But that’s just me talking off the top of my head. … I can’t see New Jersey letting him go.</blockquote>
http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/blogsjazznotes/53300845-62/williams-harris-jersey-traded.html.csp
That is one of the most positive things I have heard so far from someone who might know something...
and Jefferson says he still keeps in touch with Deron.
Al Jefferson on his friendship with Williams: We keep in touch. We’re still cool and everything.
from espn
One leftover question from the whole Dwight Howard discussion to the left: Is there any scenario where the Nets, fearing that they won’t be able to trade for Howard and thus putting themselves at great risk for losing Deron Williams in free agency this summer, decide to trade D-Will before the March 15 deadline to avoid that nightmare scenario?
Sources briefed on New Jersey’s thinking say that there’s only one such scenario.
If Howard is traded to the Lakers before the deadline, sources say New Jersey would then be forced to explore its D-Will trade options, knowing that Williams would be a virtual lock to leave come July. If Orlando keeps Howard or deals him anywhere else but L.A. or Dallas before the deadline, thus keeping alive its dream of pairing the two in Brooklyn next fall, New Jersey will wait.
The Nets, in other words, would have to be all the way out of the Howard Sweepstakes before abandoning their plans, having sacrificed so much last February (Derrick Favors, Devin Harris and two first-round picks) just to get D-Will.

i had seen it posted in past threads before
why is it that ESPN is soooo pro lakers. They hardly mention the nets its either the lakers will get him for when they talk about the possibilty but then they are like well nets are the frontrunners but go lakers….i HATE the lack of respect

They are Pro-Lakers...
for the same reason they are so pro-knicks. They are part of the company. ESPN has a lot invested in those two teams. When you factor this in, it isn’t a surprise.
I love the phrase "sources briefed on New Jersey's thinking..."
Might as well say “somebody that could imagine how the team might think gave somebody else a quick synopsis, and then they told me that….”
We could be sources like that. ESPN is a joke.

I cant understand the belief that,"Williams would be a virtual lock to leave come July."
You have an organization committed to keeping him, a new arena, big market, great city, familiarity between the player and organization with a good relationships, cap space, young talent and tradable assets. If there was a realistic way Dwight and Deron can max out and team up in a decent market elsewhere then yeah maybe it’d be a lock but that isn’t the case.If we don’t get Dwight losing Deron because a greater concern…but “virtual lock?” Very few teams have to offer what the Nets do, even if we don’t get Dwight I thin we are more likely to keep Deron then not.

The only way something happens before that is if the floor falls out form under the magic, or someone ups the offer — neither has happened

They said the magic can get something in July through sign and trade.
But is there some type of rule that says there HAS to be a sign and trade? Can’t he just leave them without anything?
