PrintThe Nets rebounded from another ugly start on Monday, but a big comeback fell short, as they finished their road trip at 1-3 with a 101-91 loss to the Clippers.
The Clippers took control with a 16-0 run midway through the first quarter, led by 13 at the half and by 11 at the end of the third. A 15-2 Nets run tied the game with 6:46 left to go in the game, but they came up short on their only chance to take the lead. The Clippers answered with a 6-1 run and Chauncey Billups hit the dagger with just over a minute to go.
The Nets shot 42 percent from the field and 8-for-24 from 3-point range. The difference in the game was rebounding, where the Clippers had a 46-35 advantage.
MarShon Brooks led the Nets with 19 points and eight rebounds. Four other Nets scored in double-figures, including Deron Williams, who made just five of his 14 shots. Shelden Williams fueled the fourth-quarter comeback and finished with eight points and eight boards. Blake Griffin led L.A. with 23 and 14.

horrible refs
we should have had this
"Dear Mark - You showed the world not only what a great team you have, but also, that you can remain silent for a period of weeks--I don't know which is more shocking!"
DWill Era- 7-18
Agreed
Those refs were so 1-sided. The Nets got cheap whistles while the Clips did whatever they wanted> All night Blake was knocking people around and about half the fouls that went against the NEts really belonged to BG
You forgot to add
- Rigged officiating
- Avery not getting Brooks a single shot down the stretch
- Shelden showing why Petro should never get off the bench again
- Awful games by Dwill and Farmar

At least Farmar took control of the tempo unlike Deron
And that’s the main reason why Deron isnt on the level of Paul because Paul controls the flow of the game while Williams shoots hopeless bricks even at the free throw line smh pathetic and this is the man you want on a Max contract?

Farmar was HORRIFIC tonight dude
and always refuses to pass Brooks the ball.
Ship him to Memphis ASAP.
another game lost because of another horrible start
stop digging your own graves in the first 10-15 minutes of every game.
no more moral victories. this team has the second worst record in the league and should have more wins

ITS A VVVVVVCCCCCCCCCCC THREEEEEEEEEEEEE
so erase the horrible start with a normal start
and they are winning and most likely walk out building with a W instead of trying to pin everything on the refs(although they receive some blame but when have NBA refs ever called a fair game)
sorry, cant come out flat and unprepared EVERY game and expect to erase 30 point deficits in 2 and a half quarters and win

yep it seems like every single game we go down 12+ in the first quarter and then make comebacks which always seem to fall short
except in Washington.
We beat the Raptors and Suns good.

Reasons why we lost the game:
1) Referees
2) D Will being awful in the clutch
3) Farmar being awful in the clutch
4) Avery not giving Morrow any mins when we desperately needed a bucket. Avery also didn’t go to Brooks ONCE in crunch time. Makes you wonder why he had Brooks out there in the first place.

Why Farmar?
I can’t believe that MarShon is not getting shots in the last two minutes? Why is Farmar? He dribbles too much and makes reckless decisions and had no shot tonight. MarShon should have had a shot every time down. DWill looked horrible. MarShon looks great. He needs to shoot and handle.
Fire Avery! Hire The Czar!
Deron is awful right now. Has checked himself out already. What can we get from teams that want him right now?

Too bad.
I hope we make the trade for Mayo. Farmar and pick for him is a no brainer, Ive just got a bad feeling that it will be Morrow who goes.
I think it's fine.
Morrow didn't play much tonight..I have a feeling it's him
which may be fine. perhaps we can get something else in return for Farmar+Petro+ 2nd rounder
Bad feeling? Nothing to feel bad about.
He’s pathetic. Might as well have Matt Bonner to do the same.

They barely put him in.
In the 4th with 5mins left I’d rather him chucking up 3pointers than Farmar.
bottom line is if we had more talent, we wouldnt be put in the scenario of possibly being f'd by the refs
I see a farmar or morrow trade in the horrizon, we desperately need it. I truly understand now that is what it’s gonna take.

If we traded Deron this season (pretend he says he wants out)
where do you send him?
Orlando (see Otis may have played this well)
Houston
Dallas?
not a lot of teams I can see trading for him
My best:
to Houston for Jordan Hill and they unprotect our pick
to Dallas for ??? . yuck
to Orlando for Nelson, Anderson, Reddick and picks
trying to think of teams that would trade for him
only think teams that have a chnace of keeping him would be in play
I try OKC first,
Deron is closer to home and plays would resign there. We could ask for Westbrook and Harden in return and have a very good, young guard rotation.
Add Lopez and possibly MKG in hte draft plus cap space, we would be a very good team going into Brooklyn
true.. problem is Deron has killed his trade value
and OKC is playing great.. would they mess with chemistry so late in the season, espescially with Deron not certain to resign?
Morrow and Dwill
For Harden and Westbrook.

Everyone can see the lack of effort.
Seriously can someone explain to me why Brooks didn't get any plays run for him in the stretch?
I was listening on the radio, so I couldn’t see what was going on, on the floor.
Was it just not calling any plays, or were they all over him? What happened (besides “Avery happened”)?

I imagine, eLone, that most plays have multiple options and it’s up to Williams or Farmar to make the decision to give the ball to Brooks. They simply looked for their own shot first and didn’t even look to Brooks as a bail out option.
Should Avery have called plays specifically for Brooks? Yes, and he definitely didn’t. But Williams and Farmar didn’t actively look to get him involved so I put it on them as veteran leaders of this team.
Farmar never looks for Brooks
Ever since he got mad at him during the celtics game.

And, to be fair, Brooks is still doing it. He waves people off, he calls for the ball sometimes in terrible spots. He can rub some of his teammates the wrong way and you saw it with Stevenson tonight when Brooks made a mistake.
i agree...
the rook needs to fall in line…but it’s the coaching staff’s fault for not developing more plays for him that puts him in position to score…he’s obviously the best scorer on the team right now.
He’s also willing to pass when he gets heat or penetrates.

Brooks is the one thing a rookie is never supposed to be, confident and authoritative. Farmar knows the kid is good and what’s worse, to Jordan, he is like Robinson Cano in that he looks like he’s showing you up because he sometimes does the most difficult thing and makes it look easy.
I don’t know either of those guys personally so I can’t comment on whether MarShon is a nie guy, but I think Farmar feels threatened by him. Tells you something about this team’s terrible chemistry, yet another strike against Avery Johnson
there was also a play...
out of a break where it appeared Marshon didn’t fulfill his assignment…Stevenson called a 20sec. time out halfway through the play. Avery and Stevenson were talking to MarShon on the sideline.
With that being said, I’m not sure what the benefit of doing the long developing back screens for DWill when he’s obviously not in tune with the game. Farmar was playing hard, but he is obviously excluding MarShon on certain plays…and taking bad shots.
MarShon wants to win and he’s playing hard. It’s time to have a few plays that gets him the ball in position to score when the Nets need buckets. Avery hasn’t figured it out…his old plays were for Brook (he’s injured), most plays now are for DWill playing off the ball (he’s having more bad games than good)…time to design some plays for Brooks.
disappointed in Avery and Deron after this game. Farmar is just a hard playing back-up PG…who has a low bbiq at times.

The saddest part about all of this is the fact that most thought Deron was still gonna be a top flight PG
When in reality he isn’t “anymore” and probably never was!
The recipe was simple coming into this season, if this team was to get in a playoff race deron needed to play at an MVP level thus far that hasn’t happen and you folks need to stop making excuses for him! He’s not as good as advertised point blank! Even Rondo controls the flow of the game Billups did today as well, we have a scoring PG with a bad jumpshot!
If he still gets a max contract playing like this it will be a damn shame! I’d rather have Rondo who actually has a sense of efficiency and only at a 10mil range contract than Mr. Crossover oops I just broke my own ankles Williams!
Still and all Deron is a great passer but that’s about it right now especially since he clearly is being out performed by Brooks Nuff said!!!

2) Dwill - Man I didnt want to listen to some of you guys on this board, but I really dont think Dwill can handle BROOKLYN. He clearly isnt the strong minded individual that I thought he was. TRADE HIM but I dont want westbrook because he is the same way. Another thing here is when BUTLER was acting a FOOL and HiTTING shots. DWILL you should have guarded him and made him eat CROW. That is a true LEADER. If this is YOUR TEAM, that is what you should have done.
2) BKING - I dont want Dwight. If Dwill is being this way, how is Dwight going to be since they are in cahoots. I dont want to lose anymore picks, I dont want to lose Brooks and Lopez. Yeah I know Dwight is the end all be all but I dont want to BABYs. I thought Dwight would be the overgrown baby and Dwill would put him in check, BUT it looks like they are BOTH BABIES.
WHAT I LIKED
1) Stevenson – Showed some really heart tonight. I want to guy to stay with Brooks.
2) Brooks 20XXXXXX- Stevenson clearly embarrassed him on national TV and what does the KID do. He hits his next shot and shows that he F"ED up but still maintained his SWAG.
3) TEAM EFFORT – We made a run to come back without DWILL.
ALL THAT SAID

And outside of one half since then, he’s actually doing it even more.
I love how he’s getting schooled by Point Guards older than Dick “Rigged” Bavetta.

ALRIGHT guys the light has come to me. I am convinced...
We have to do everything we can to trade Deron now. It makes total sense. First of all, it’s not like he’s the reason we have a shot at getting Dwight or anything. We’ll still totally have a shot at getting Dwight after trading Deron… an even better shot actually. Howard won’t ever pass up on the opportunity of playing with Farmar. Second of all, there’s no point in waiting until Lopez gets healthy. It’s not like he’s in a slump or anything, he’s just a fake superstar and everything that we saw from him in the first six years of his career is a fluke. A sample size of less than a month is way more meaningful. Don’t even wait until the trade deadline. Who cares if he finds his shot and gets back on track, I WANT HIM TRADED NOW!!!

this season is about 2 things
1: Dwight
2: seeing who we have and want in/out of the rotation.
guys have repeatedly been yanked in and out. Only 3 guys have developed a niche: deron humph and brooks.
Jazz fans obviously hated on D-Will all the time from the terrible reception he got when he came back on Saturday.
The Jazz fans will put up with a surly, bad-attitude player if the team is winning but once the foundation started to crumble it’s clear they turned on Deron Williams just like the Nets are turning on him right now.
If we don’t get Dwight Howard, Deron Williams won’t have to leave because the fans are going to pack his bags for him.
I think I’d rather have Marshon Brooks and Anthony Davis going forward than Deron Williams and a supporting cast without Dwight Howard.
seems like the Jazz fans were onto something
when he got booed like that, it was well deserved. I can see that clearly now.

Why are you guys treating Dwill as if he were a 6 year old kid?
He can’t take the truth now?
I can take 35% FG
I can take him leading the league in Turnovers
BUT I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE HIS LACK OF EFFORT and TERRIBLE BODY LANGUAGE.
I have lost count how many times this dude has given up on plays when HE HIMSELF MESSES UP .
I want him to SUCCEED. I want the Nets to WIN. But Deron is not contributing to that now.
The only reason he should stay here is because Howard wants to play with him
otherwise I would trade him for some young players and picks.

that a guy like Farmar, God bless his worthless soul, is giving more effort than Deron? Shouldn’t Deron be our ‘energy guy’ and not Gaines? I’m sold on Brooks….I think we already have two great pieces in him and Brook. Deron doesn’t deserve spoiled treatment.

agree about the attitude...
the lack of effort at times is inexcusable. I’m disappointed right now by Dwill’s willingness to back down from adversity.
However, I actually think he’s going to turn it around soon…I also think if Avery figures out how good a scorer MarShon can really be…the offense might start flowing a lot better, and Brooks won’t get turned away on certain plays.
There are some fighters on this team, which is refreshing…disappointed Deron isn’t showing he’s one of them.

Do you trust Deron and Avery with the keys to the organizaiton?
We need Proky to come here and whip things into shape. Problem is, Poky doesn’t really care at all.
Ratner made the Nets into a real estate deal. Proky bought the Nets as an investment, way to get his name in the US press, and a real estate deal.
It all starts at the top actually. We need a real owner. Not a foreign owner who probably forgot he owns us
OK, now you’re just being ridiculous. Mike LOVES basketball and he really wanted to buy into the NBA.
are you serious or sarcastic?
I think Proky can’t name 20 NBA players to be honest.
when your owner doesnt watch any games.. that is a problem

Dwight was trying to be nice to Orlando...
when he requested a trade in the offseason…there were multiple reports and even Orlando admitted the Nets were the top choice. Orlando could have dumped massive amounts of salary and picked up a few key pieces + draft picks. But they said NO.
Dwight thought the deal was done during training camp…now, I really don’t see the benefit of him trying to get traded to the Nets at the deadline other than the 5th year on his contract. The cap space the Nets will have this summer plus multiple picks could build a contender from DAy 1.

His defense KILLS this team too
he is a fantastic shooter, but Mayo has star potential and do a hell of a lot more overall.
He averaged almost 19ppg his rookie season
and 17+ his 2nd year. He’s got a great shot, handle, etc.
He needs a fresh start somewhere else IMO.
i think he needs a fresh start also
but see him as like a good player not a star. and yes, a nice upgrade. AND a better contract: more capspace
I don’t get this.. it’s not that simple..
First both teams have to agree on a deal, which they clearly haven’t..
Then you’d have to figure out compensation with draft picks..
i wouldnt throw cash in the deal
theres a limit to 3M throw ins on cash for an entire season: need it for a grander strike
The report said
“The Nets can pull the trigger on an OJ Mayo deal.”
The 2 scenarios (farmar+pick, or Morrow) were detailed as the 2 scenarios.

But most of the people, just like most of the people who were going to Nets game (when I played for the Knicks) are Knicks fans. So they’re going to have their work cut out for them to try to change the culture.”
Hate to say it but it’s the truth. Nets really sucked when Ewing was playing though. They still really suck but yea.

Pretty much, I mean you will always have the die hard fans but look at Giants and Jets in NFL
I’m sure we all know a bunch of people who were rooting for Giants in Superbowl who started rooting for the Jets when they made the playoffs two years in a row and I bet right now they are rooting for the Giants
It really depends on which team is better.
If Nets are better, a lot of the bandwagon Knicks fans are going to switch sides. And believe me, there are a lot of bandwagon Knicks fans.
Why are they even talking about fans?! It's soo irrelevant!
There is a fine line between hardcore fans (read Nets fans) and bandwagon fans (read Lakers fans). Hardcore fans will never change colors no matter what, but they are about 10% of all fan-base. The real mass is bandwagon fans who care and root for the winner.

So as time goes by and losses pile up, the old adage of PERCEPTION = REALITY comes up
I’ve used that line when referring to our beloved nets a few times on this site only to be told I’m not a psychoanaylst and therefore shouldnt try and dissect what people are thinking. But i can state how i perceive things can’t I? Well OK. My perception is that this team absolutely stinks! That stench carries over wayyyyyyy west to cali, way down towards texas and especially south towards florida! Unfortunately, people don’t look at our situation the way that we do, i.e. loads of capspace, excellent draft picks, marshon brooks, lopez top young center, brooklyn, moneybags owner, etc etc etc……What they (meaning the media, other GMS, other players, agents, fans) see, is our putrid play and effort. They see Dwill’s body language and lack of hustle and in turn think that guy doesnt wanna be there, he’s outta there as soon as the year is up, he’s already checked out And while this may not be the truth, everyone except for those of us here, believe all of it. They think that NJ tag will be carried well into brooklyn. Save for a few years of joyous basketball featuring jkidd/kmart/RJ/VC we’ve had nothing but heartbreak, bad move after bad move, being left at the altar by top flight free agents, bad draft after bad draft (not including brooks)……that perception is becoming a reality, thanks largely to the fact that everyone outside of our little NJ Nets fans community thinks we absolutely suck, are a joke and will always be a joke…..Players are affected by this. Noone wants to willingly come play for a loser, and in there eyes we are and will always will be just that a loser!

What he meant by that or at least what I got is that Lopez is what makes the offense go
Williams needs Lopez more to be successful than Lopez needs Williams to be successful.
basically the team is built around Lopez
without him, the others have to step up more and some players become less effective.
Dallas Clark was a beast when he didnt have to block because Peyton Manning was so good making good quick reads and delivering the ball ASAP and on point. Deron can set up teammates as long as they are threats to score(like Lopez) but when he has shoulder the load and be a score-first player with no help, he has failed big time.
Lopez going to get his regardless of Deron, Deron just helps him be more efficient. But Deron is not even as close to being effective without Lopez

It honestly scares me to think that after all the efforts the Nets went through to get a superstar, some of us are convinced that six years are meaningless and less than a month of performance is all that should be used to define a player. As long as we have a chance at Dwight, it makes no sense to want D-Will out.

I’m not sayin there’s not reason to be upset at D-Will’s lackadaisical play, which is way too frequent. but after the Suns game not a single hater was to be found. I trashed D-Will pretty hard before that game, but I stuck around to admit he had a good game.
I honestly just think he’s dogging it, that his talent isn’t gone. It certainly doesn’t say good things about his character, but if we get Dwight, things would undoubtedly change IMO.

hump didnt come to this team
playin like an all star so the good that he’s done naturally gets praise n if he does bad its like ok well thats how he used to play. but dwill is a diff story cuz he came over as an allstar point guard n is playin like chris childs
The former Jazz and current Nets are WAY different
How do you think Deron was scoring? Was he flying over the defense and scoring (which is what guys are expecting here)?
He had Boozer, AK-47, Millsap among others to take the load off his shoulders. Deron would get open shots and hit them. He was occasionally isolate his man and score easily.
Here, everyone just shoots 3 pointers. Deron is not that take-over type of scorer. He’s a team player.
The game came down to two things
1) The refs didn’t allow us to be as physical in the 1st half. Anytime we tried to match their physicality, the whistle came out. It dug us into a hole. Meanwhile, they roughed us up inside at will with no calls.
2) In the run where we came back, we moved the ball…made the extra pass. After we tied it, D-Will and Farmar pounded the air out of the ball.
I dont understand why Avery keeps running dwill off the ball..he has farmer or marshon dribbling the ball on top of the arc for 10 seconds to watch deron run a back screen only to come back up to the arc to catch the ball then run the play…at this point there is 10 or less seconds on the clock
There is so much wrong with this team…all i know, BK better not trade MarShon he has so much potential…
About Deron's body language
He’s biding time. He’s waiting till Dwight gets here. He doesn’t want to kill himself with this squad.
That may not be an agreeable attitude, but it certainly seems like that’s the attitude.
He's bought into the plan
so he should be a leader on the court. Period.

This dude is supposed to be the leader of the team. For a ROOKIE, even this ROOKIE to just outplay him. That’s beyond explanation to me.
Look I’m not one of the crazy dudes, who thinks we sell Deron to the highest bidder. I believe in a Nets team built around him. But, this guy isn’t playing the part of a professional right now. This guy isn’t doing his part to help this team win games. Now Dwight Howard is talking Clippers? Deron Williams, it’s time you start looking in the mirror and asking yourself, why a ROOKIE is outplaying you! It’s time to take the lead on this team, and be the man.
If the rook keeps doing his thing, and you step up and do yours, we can be in a position to make a run when we get Lopez back. If Howard makes it to Free Agency, which is looking increasingly likely, that means we can make a last ditch run to the playoffs, make some noise.
I like the idea of Anthony Davis, Lopez/Howard, Brooks, some other pick, and Deron, just fine. But, I want to know what this team can do, if our superstar plays like he’s one of the 5 best players in the league, instead of one of the 75 best.
The crazy thing about Deron
is he’s always had bad +/- numbers. Even in Utah. Ask Hollinger. It’s just now his effort is terrible.

OT but the large expiring contract (and body) of Diaw is available
The Bobcats have made Boris Diaw available in a trade, according to beat writer Rick Bonnell.
Diaw’s work habits and lethargic play on the floor have him in coach Paul Silas’ doghouse. It’s also the reason he’s unlikely to attract much attention on the trade market. The rebuilding Bobcats won’t take back a bad contract either, meaning Diaw will only be attractive to teams interested in his $9 million expiring contract. Bonnell suggests the Suns as a possible landing spot, but their front-court is already jammed. Diaw has come off the bench in two straight games, playing behind the likes of Tyrus Thomas, D.J. White and Derrick Brown. Source: Rick Bonnell on Twitter/Rotoworld.com
Petro + Farmar for Diaw?
Clear more contracts, get a facilitator that used to be able to play SF before he was 300 pounds.

Am I missing something?
I seemed to be one of Deron Williams’ bigger critics amongst the NetsDaily population. However, what I’m reading here is really over the top. Why are people assuming that Williams isn’t trying/doesn’t care about the performance of the team? If anything, he takes the performance of the team too seriously.
I’m beginning to doubt my previous assessment of Williams as a player, but I think it’s a stretch to say that he’s “doggin’ it.” I know it’s in the nature of ‘the fan’ to react strongly after every game, but let’s pump the brakes a little. The end-goal still hasn’t been derailed and the Nets are playing without quite possibly their most important player. Relax.

Not gonna lie, the Deron-bashing is getting annoying
It’d be one thing if he’s just terrible and throwing in the towel. Instead, he’s doing all he can to will this team back from 17 point deficits. This is all the while our incredibly undermanned frontcourt is getting bullied by Griffin all game. We win this game if we had Brook. Easily.
who've you been watching?
Farmar was a reason for one of the close comebacks…while Shelden, Brooks and Hump were the reason they came back tonight. DWill came in, hit a big 3, then went on to miss a couple of gimme FTs and had yet another big TO or two.

Interesting...
So you’re saying there are varying levels of difficulty which apply to sitting at a computer (or a cell phone) and typing insults about a player from a relatively untouchable (and anonymous) position?
Yes
Because, say, if one hates the Nets’ current strategy to chase after star players at all costs (e.g. Melo, Dwight), then one should aim their vindictive at Mikhail Prokhorov, who by all accounts has put that strategy in place. But too often people blame Billy King for that strategy when he is just following orders. What I’m saying is it’s easy to say Fire King or even more to the point, Fire Avery (as if anything substantial would change right now if that were to happen), but it’s more difficult to publicly hope and pray for new majority ownership because Prokhorov is still mostly revered here; such a post would likely spawn a backlash.
I mean, Travis Outlaw was an easy target because it was difficult to argue in favor of him. But clearly he was not the problem relative to the extent that the fans focused on him last year, because this team is actually worse this year than last year.
Of course, it goes without saying I’m ok with the star chasing strategy. Once we got Deron, the Dwight or Bust pursuit was the natural next step. But if people are fed up with this franchise, at least they are now targeting the team’s best player and hopefully will soon target the man who refused to build the team organically — Prokhorov.

Avery shouldn’t have taken him out for good after that reactionary timeout. it was inappropriate for a player to waste a timeout like that, but it at least showed he cared about how his team was playing, and it spread to Marshon and Shelden (unfortunately not D-Will, but that’s been covered here).

Starbury vs. JKidd
I had hope that D. William was the “second coming” of J Kidd for this organization…but so far he seems to be a second coming of Stephon Marbury:
1. Statistically both can put up deceivingly good 20/10 type of numbers
2. Average to subpar defender or better yet appalling lack of effort
3. Talks winning but plays like a loser and ready to blame everyone but the man in the mirror
4. Pounds the ball too much to the detriment of the team
5. More scorer point guard than a control the tempo of the game and pass point guard
6. Arguably all the above traits showing in Deron William is more of result of this season with little to no other supporting cast and Lopez injury. However, what scares me is his attitude is inexcusably too similar to selfish, punkish, immaturish Starbury……again hopefully this not the “real” D. Will or else……
Notice how well Utah is doing without him?
And it’s not because of Harris/Favors/Kanter who haven’t given much.

king inherited a ton of players that weren’t his style player. he wants 2 way athletes. that’s why vujacic is gone. it’s why morrow and/or farmar may be gone. mayo fits more to what king likes and had better contract

i don’t know if teams are thinking trade yet. with the lockout, its taking times for teams to see what they have and what they plan to do with their rosters. We want to make all these moves, as a team in complete limbo, but i dont think the market’s all that open.

I’m really starting to not like Blake Griffin. part of it is due to the non-stop hype machine surrounding “Lob City”, but he just plays like such a “fugazy”. he pushes and pulls all night, but if things don’t go his way, he whines for a whistle.
the worst was when he and Shelden were fighting for the board, Griffin flopped back and a jump ball was called, then he tried to act tough and taunt “u mad” to Shelden for taking it out on him, when Blake was the one who exaggerated the contact and flew his body to the ground.
I’m with Bill Simmons on this one. Griffin so far is nothing more than a more athletic Kris Humphries.

swag is silencing the opposition with your play, not needing to speak a word, Ray Allen style. Blake’s defense isn’t all there yet so he acts like a fugazy punk to compensate.

Ray Allen is a hall of famer. Rip Hamilton will be considered too. Okafor is a solid bigman—reliable for a double double a 2 blocks a game. Donyell Marshall was great in college and in the nba too. Ben Gordon was the best player on the floor during a playoff series which featured MVP Derrick Rose. Caron Butler is an above average wing player, borderline all-star. Kemba Walker took his team to two consecutive championships—Big East Champ and then the national championships. Rudy Gay is a top 5 wing player in the league today. Uconn Scrubs? What???? Pure hatin.

did i say that
i said he would be considered. Ray Allen WILL be in the HOF. Rip will be in the discussion when his time comes, but i dont think he proved enough to make it. Chauncey will (unjustly) get most of the credit for their run together. Oh well. Rip is one of the few players in history to win both an NCAA Championship and NBA championship—that doesn’t hurt his case. Esp considering he wasn’t just a Derrick Fisher on those teams—he WAS the UConn team that won, and he was (IMO) the most valuable piece to the Pistons win in the NBA. However, that all said, he prob wont make it. Not enough all-stars and points per season etc. They will give it to Chauncey instead.

bottom line to me
no dwight deal for another month and a half at least…and we’re not gonna deal expirers for expirers…
so, its all about morrow, farmar, shawne, and petro: are we, or are we not, going to look to deal them perhaps to cut even more payroll.
lame story but that’s the status right now
look at mayo and diaw and outlaw
on mayo and diaw: if ur patient, guys become available
on outlaw: if someone gave HIM 4 years, someone will take 1.5 years of this foursom of players
We are the 2nd worse team in the league right now.
Lets just throw the towel in on this season. Worse case scenario is that DWill leaves and we dont get Dwight. We will still be OK. This years draft is filled with difference makers. How did the Clippers future look before they got Blake Griffin? Now they are set for the forseeable future. There are 4 true franchise type of players in this years draft.
1. Anthony Davis PF – Franchise player. Has the skillset to be the defensive player of the year. As a Senior in HS he averaged 32 pts 22 rebounds 7 blocks a game. He is averaging 13 pts 10 boards 4.6 blocks at Kentucky right now. I cant think of a more perfect compliment to Lopez then Davis.
2. Andre Drummond PF – Amare clone, pre injuries. This kid would also be a good fit because he can really play inside. Has an NBA body right now. Very athlethic and explosive.
3. Perry Jones SF/PF – This kid is a freak. 6’11" athletic phenom. Has Durant upside. He has been called a taller Tracy McGrady, pre injuries of course.Seem that he is a boom/bust type because he hasnt overwelmed in college but his game is better suited for the NBA.
4. Harrison Barnes SF – Does everything well on a basketball court. Has lockdown defensive skills, can be a great scorer, smart player, hard worker. Barnes at SF and Brooks at SG would give us the best young wing tandem in the NBA.
Outside of these four you have players like Lamb, Kidd Gilchrist, Beal and Sullinger are also possible franchise type talents. Lopez will be 24 when next season starts, Brooks will be 23. Bogdanvic will also be coming over in the next year or two and he is one of the top scorers in Europe. We can put together a great young nucleus and build around them.
Lopez- Top 5 Center
A Davis- Superstar potential. Defensive Monster
Bogdanvic – Good scorer
Brooks – Potential All Star in the next 2 years
Felton – FA signing
He has a 7-1 wingspan and averaged 7.1 rebounds in the Big East. He will be one of the top players when we look back on this draft 3 years from now. DWILL-of-the-GODZ June 3, 2011

We need to trade for an athletic wing who excels in transition.
It’s kind of hard to score consistantly when we cant get easy baskets and always have to go against a set defense.

we have so many guys that r specialist role players. humphries is our 3rd best player and he’s a marginal starter more suited to be first big off bench. clearly u saw that against millsap. as for brooks: our second best player was drafted 27 i mean that says somtin.
lets not blame avery. its the roster.
Rebuttal:
The Lakers are only 3 wins off last season’s pace to this point in the season with a bench that makes last season’s bench look like that of the Nets’ first Finals team. With any of the other coaches available last summer (other than Adelman) they’d be at least 5 wins off last season’s pace to this point in the season.

we will pick 3rd.

he is but...
enough flex in cap/roster/contracts that all possibilities are open
I knew he would thrive in Orlando, no surprise with Howard there and the offense they run
But he’s still ryan anderson, not buying into the hype. Nice player, an improved one also but can only go so far
not stupid..its possible.
Ive thought about it as well however unless billy king can pull a super trade, i dont know who else is out there to give this team a boost it needs. Even with the roster as is and healthy lopez with a top 3 pick we’re still not that good.

It's kind of hard to care if we lose DWill
w/ the way he’s playing right now.
Honestly, w/out DWill or Dwight, I am going to have so much fun rooting for this MarShon Brooks kid.
He hates to lose. He can score from anywhere on the court. He’s got good defensive instincts and long arms. He’s getting better and more NBA savvy every game. This kid IS a star in the making.
I hope Orlando doesn’t trade Dwight this season, b/c I don’t want the Nets to be put in the position of having to decide whether to trade this kid to get a deal done or not.
agreed
obviously I’m still holding out hope for Dwight. but honestly, if Deron leaves because we don’t get Dwight, good riddance, because he never gave a 100% for us. Marshon does, has a good attitude, tons of potential, and we’ve been watching him from the beginning.
not to mention I love Brook Lopez
by sheepareevil on Jan 17, 2012 1:45 AM EST up reply actions
Is it just me or is our best chance of winning right now is letting Brooks get 20 to 25 shots per game.
I have more confidence in his contested shot going in then open shots from anyone else. I dont care if he is a rookie or not. It seems the team resents Brooks because of his pedigree, 25th pick, but its obvious that he is the best scoring option on the team.
He has a 7-1 wingspan and averaged 7.1 rebounds in the Big East. He will be one of the top players when we look back on this draft 3 years from now. DWILL-of-the-GODZ June 3, 2011

he is being handled PERFECTLY.
its BETTER what he does now: work hard and play in the CONTEXT of the offense than making him an all alone on island player.
his fg pct is good b/c he doesn’t force. once he learns HOW to play, we’ll have a great player…not yet. just a good one
No...
He should be taking more shots a game, do you see the kind of shots he hits? He’s played 14 games and he looks like a veteran out there. I think people just look at the box score and see 19 points, big deal. But in reality look at the type of plays and shots he hits, it’s unreal
You do if they earn it.
Brook has consistently been the best player on the floor for the Nets all season.
if you make him iso for 20-25 shots
welcome to "nets lose…brooks goes 9/24
I agree
You take a rookie of his leash, he will eventually go out of control. He’s still not the scorer people think he is. Needs to get to the line more for me to actually say he’s a good scorer.

200% he's so much better than i even hoped
i just don’t think he’s being used improperly.
He settles for a lot of shots, fade aways especially
its falling now, so now one is complaining, but I’ve seen the better SG’s get bashed for it, and I’m talking about the SG’s that have scored 20,000+ in there careers.

The reason he is shooting fadeaways is beacuse with 4 sec left in the clock there isnt much more that you can do
Give him freedom to break the defensive down and then move the ball off of his penetration. Our offense would function better.
He has a 7-1 wingspan and averaged 7.1 rebounds in the Big East. He will be one of the top players when we look back on this draft 3 years from now. DWILL-of-the-GODZ June 3, 2011

They can if they want
but isn’t that going against the whole ball stopper and chuck debate? He might put up 40 or 50 with no leash, but the Nets will lose for sure.

Great players make tough shots
and make plays out of nothing. He’s shown too much of that so far for it to be a fluke, imo, but maybe I’ll be proven wrong as the season goes on.
All I'm saying is that its too early to tell
By all means, he can hoist up as much shots if he wants, rather him than #8

If he goes out of control, bench him.
He’ll learn from it, b/c he’s receptive to it.
I mean, I don’t really disagree w/ you that much on this, tbh. But the Nets have NOTHING else. This kid is showing more heart than our supposed superstar that we sold the farm for. How long until they reward him by letting go of the reigns, at least a little?
Through 14 games your going to let a rookie run wild?
They can if they want, but I wouldn’t advise it, and think it would be a huge mistake. You NEVER let the player take over fully, otherwise they will be sorry.

Most superstars take full control in their

But we're talking about rookie here
on a team with supposedly the best PG in this game, on a bad team. We could probably give you 14 shots, and you’d look nice lol

No, I suck.
But seriously, we have supposedly the best PG in the game who is playing like a scrub. MarShon is playing like a star. These are the facts of this season so far. How long can you wait for DWill to turn it around? And how long do you wait before you decide whether what Brooks is doing is a fluke?
They need to win games.
Its not only Williams that is playing bad though its the entire team
but the guy that was suppose to be playing good and leading us, is a rookie. They might let Brooks off the leash eventually, but I just think its too early.

I would understand if he was shooting poorly or turning the ball over but he isnt

on all these player moves...

"It's as sweet as it ever was, I'll tell you. Now, hopefully, we started something and we can win some more championships, but we're going to enjoy this one right now. Have a little champagne." --Julius Erving, May 12, 1976, ABA champion Nets locker room.
the other night in Denver
one of the writers got a look at George Karl’s whiteboard.
On it was written, “#1 Priority: Deron Williams”
Williams is shooting poorly but other defenses are keying on him, trapping him, double teaming him if necessary. The main reason he is not doing as well this year as he did last year, even with a bum wrist, is that there is NO BROOK LOPEZ. Many here cannot accept how important Lopez is to the offense because they have invested so much in their belief that he is overrated. It’s a fact.
As for MarShon, he is going to be special but he is a rookie. He is not at Deron Williams level…and is unlikely to be.
As for Avery Johnson, a number of Nets have talked about how much they like him. Hump is back because of him. Even Farmar has called him a “terrific coach”. The fact that they keep coming back is testament to his motivational skills. He is a terrible coach, just as Doc Rivers wasn’t a terrible coach and Erik Spoelstra wasn’t a terrible coach when they both won 20 or fewer games when they didn’t have talent.
If you want to blame anyone or anything right now, you can blame whoever stepped on Lopez’s foot or the strategy that has the Nets waiting for Superman.
The team or most of it is trying.
I will brook no counter arguments.

People are clearly missing what many here are saying
we knew this team was going to be bad, well I did for sure. But Lopez going down took us from potential 7th or 8th seed playoff spot to lottery bound. BUT that’s besides the point, many here are more pissed about #8 play rather than the Nets overall play. He’s played like crap, and no one here can deny that. People here are just stating the obvious, he’s playing bad overall, but many here want to take the #8 bashing to heart.

Deron is being asked to carry too much of the offense. That's why his numbers are down and he is unhappy.
Marson might be a rookie but he will be 23 in a week which is how old Lopez was when he carried our offense last year. Brooks’s game is better suited to play with our offense since he is good at making bad shots. Until Lopez comes back we should be running the offensive through Brooks.

Is there NI? Brooks is creating his own offense. Its not like he is the recipiant of open looks
What we are doing now has gotten us 3 wins which are in large part due to the play of Brooks. Deron is shooting horribly being asked to be the lead dog. His 35/14 game came against a Nash-less Phoenix team. If we took the names off of the back of the jerseys and asked who is the best player on the team right now most people would say #9.

Brooks is chucking and making
Hes not exactly dribble driving and soaring to the lane after crossing over his defender. The kid gets buckets but he requires a clear out and holds the ball too long.
He’s got a lot of confidence, shooting ability, and BBIQ… but hes no Lopez.

Ridiculous that he didn't get look down the stretch of that game
Farmar decided he was just going to dribble around in circles.
Brooks's game is comparable to Melo's, He is an Iso player.
With the team we have now I would Iso 2-3 players(Morrow, DWill, Okur) on the weakside 3 point line and leave Hump underneat to crash the O boards. This would be getting the best use of our starters

The only reason you dont think Brooks can carry the offense is because you havent seen it.
Good Decisions come from Experience and Experience comes from bad Decisions.
What we are currently doing isnt working. Deron needs a capable big who can run pick and roll/pop to be effective. He has gotten plenty of open shots for Hump, Sheldon, James and Shawne and they simply cant knock them down consistantly. Deron isnt the type of player who can be successful shooting 16 shots a game which he currently leads the team in.
Brooks however has been a high volume shooter and is better at getting his own shot then Williams without turning the ball over.
Im not saying Brooks should be featured over Lopez when he comes back but in the meantime Avery should be making a conserted effort to get Brooks close to 20 shots a game. What do we have to lose? It might sound like a bad decision because of Brooks lack of experience but to this point he has produced.

What shelden did today tho is what u WANT: played tough and physical, wouldn’t back down. thats what we need from one of those 2: shelden wants to do it, johan doesnt
There needs to be an update on Brook's recovery
Ahead of schedule? Behind? According to plan?
Something.
I dont remember honestly
I just remember reading it somewhere..Robin Lopez mightve said something in an interview about his brother or something when we played PHX
where would that put him?
middle of Feb?

yea shelden misses open shots
but those r there because he’s WIDE open. id implore him to pass. but its 12 foot not 18 like petro
Petro should NEVER play.
His 15 foot jump shots that he makes occasionally are irrelevant.(and, when he makes them, he continues to chuck them up.)
He’s a HORRIBLE defender, doesn’t box out or rebound, and makes HUGE mistakes/turnovers every time he’s on the floor.
It's pretty sad that Kyrie Irving can carry a team
with equal or less talent better than our All NBA point guard. It’s rather embarrassing.

Antwan although past his prime can still really ball. They got better support for their pg
they have more talent than we do, everywhere
varejao jamison parker sessions etc…clearly more skill than what we have outside brooks
Didn't we have a better record than them last year and we even slightly upgraded our team.
They have the same exact players just plus Kyrie who makes them look better, what a real pg should do.

but so did they
varajeo missed most of the season, they were using d-leaguers like Manny Harris and Christian Eyenga as normal rotation players
they have cut minutes from garbage like Hollins, Graham, Moon
they also have in addition to Irving, added Tristan and Casspi.
aside from Mo and Baron they have pretty much the same roster outside the rookies who have been there since Lebron last year

The best thing I can hope for right now is that Deron Williams is intentionally dogging it to get a top pick in the draft because he wants to pair Brooks, himself, Lopez, Howard and a Top 3 pick in the NBA draft.
The grumpiness and the misery he’s putting us through is an elaborate ploy to make people think he and Dwight don’t have anything planned and thus haven’t done anything against the rules. Don’t worry, they’ve really HAVE planned everything and probably broke a whole bunch of rules.
Dwight stays in Orlando, signs in the off-season for a little less money with the Nets, signs a huge shoe contract, everyone is happy, except Orlando.

To all the guys who anxious to trade DWill if Dwight isn't traded to us at the deadline
Don’t you think King will be a privy to what Deron says about his future? Don’t you think Dwill and Howard would know each other plans?
It goes like this:
Deron asks Howard “Will you join me?”
Howard asks Deron: “Will you stay put?”
- Yes
- Yes
I don't even get why Orlando would want Bynum anyways
He has 1 year left on his deal and if Orlando struggles they are going to have Dwightmare all over again next trade deadline.
We are the only logical trade partner for the Magics.
Bynum
does not look happy in LA…
He is like Marcus Camby when he was in Denver and they had Melo and AI together on the floor.
not everybody is all smiles on the court like Dwight...
some players play angry. Doesn’t mean he is unhappy
lol, I just like this line from MarShon:
Said rookie MarShon Brooks, who scored a team-high 19 points: "When DeShawn put him on his butt, he was thinking a little bit more."
If we are saying Deron is turnin the ball over and shooting a horrible percentage because of brook that's fine
But if that is true then the guy is a Superstar like we claim. I want to believe he’s just in a slump (mental) but if he plays like this because he’s missing Lopez then dnt call him a Superstar. I seen him miss wide open shots over and over again I seen him get to the basket and miss make able layups and we seen him turn the ball over with out double teams constantly just from trying to dribble the ball to get wows. Sure Lopez would elevates any PG play but he’s not going to make a bad PG into a Superstar . So again I hope it’s a Mental slump but if it really is Lopez like all of you claim than dude is not a superstar
Stop using this ambiguous word ‘super star’.
What does it mean?
Deron Williams is an All-Star point guard. That’s it. The Nets don’t have any other All Stars, although MarShon might be one in the making. Lopez has never made an All Star game.
He’s in a mental slump, simple as that. He doesn’t believe in his teammates and he’s doing the worst thing you can possibly do, letting his frustration show. When your teammates see you are frustrated, it distracts them and they can’t perform to their fullest either. Hopefully the Nets can quickly upgrade this squad.
Deron Williams IS a superstar
he is an elite level passer, he has a high basketball IQ, he can shoot from anywhere, you name it, he can do it all. BUT, he has never in his career had to do what he is being asked to do now on the Nets, which is score more. He is not used to this at all. With Lopez down, it worsens the situation. And the fact that the people around him outside of MarShon are bonafide scrubs. He has to be frustrated right now, this isn’t his element.
We'll Be Fine.

Wilson Chandler anyone?
Added Aldridge: “The Nuggets are hopeful they’ll be able to keep Gallinari around just as they’ve inked Nene and guard Arron Afflalo to long-term deals in the last few weeks. Denver wasn’t able to surround Carmelo Anthony with enough star talent to keep him happy, so the team has pivoted to a new approach — call it Knicks West — with Gallinari seemingly replacing Wilson Chandler, who’s playing in China this season and will be difficult to re-sign once the Nuggets get Gallinari extended.”
We need to trade Farmar and Morrow, hopefully petro too but that’s wishfull thinking. Chandler would be a great addition long term at SF.

by JerseysFinest. on Jan 17, 2012 12:22 AM EST up reply actions
I am not completely sold on the idea that this deal is simply waiting for the Nets to pull the trigger.
When it was first reported they said the Grizzlies had soured on the deal I think. That makes more sense too because I believe Mayo would be a Net already if Memphis was agreeable to it. It makes a lot more sense for us than it does for them. I wouldn’t blame them for hesitating to take Farmar and a 2nd rounder
I don't remember reading that in the MCA
it said they have two deals on the table, and the ball was in the Grizzlies’ court. Kerber and NI have said that the Nets have the choice. I believe the Nets could be waiting to return from the West Coast trip before doing a trade, or maybe King wants to speak with Deron first. And the deal helps Memphis save money btw, and Farmar/Morrow are much better fits for them than Mayo.

http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Finding-a-Niche-For-Marshon-Brooks-3756#.Tfte1SPvk4M;twitter
An interesting thing to note about Brooks’ scoring offense is that in spite of his absurd amount of isolations and propensity for difficult shots, he still posted very strong efficiency numbers as a senior, a hard feat to pull off given the style he plays. Brooks’ 1.01 points per possession ranks in the 88th percentile of NCAA players according to Synergy and his 58% True Shooting Percentage ranks 6th of the 24 shooting guards in our top-100 rankings.
Of the 234 jump shots Brooks took in the half court setting according to Synergy this season, just 27 were of the unguarded, catch-and-shoot variety, but he scored a lethal 1.7 points per shot on those attempts.
He has a 7-1 wingspan and averaged 7.1 rebounds in the Big East. He will be one of the top players when we look back on this draft 3 years from now. DWILL-of-the-GODZ June 3, 2011

2 Triple Doubles in 1 game
Dwight or Bust
Nets lose 33+ games this season.

yeah but he was in his prime with the Nets

very similar to the KG boston/sota situation
except kidd won more here than KG in sota
So when Karl Malone left The Jazz to try and win a ring with the Lakers, what would the perception be had he succeeded?
The man is Jazz till the day he dies. KG was the face of Minnesota for many years. The two were synonymous. I’ll always look back at him as a T-wolve. The Jason Kidd that won the ring in Dallas was a fraction of his former self. His best years were with us and that can never be taken away. I’m sure his name will hang from the rafters in Brooklyn and Dallas both.
Wow
Andy Vasquez @andy_vasquez
The Lakers went more than 6 mins without a basket and scored only 7 points in the third quarter. Who do they think they are, the Nets?

1. Don’t listen to extraneous people. All know that Nets don’t love.
2. In Nets only 2 players of a starting lineup of Deron and Brooks. Still Lopez. 2 sound player Morrow and Hump. It is not enough of it.
3. At us the worst forward line in league. The hump the good supplementing player, but it can’t be the leader.
4. What does Stevenson bring to us on a platform? It the good defender? I it don’t see.
5. Okur and Petro the worst tandem of the center. You look as they play to protection.
6. We can’t do conclusions now. It is necessary to wait Lopez’s returnings. We will look at game of Deron after that.
I don't speak English
I don't feel not bad for Stevenson and Okur
But, anyway, we need Lopez.
If he would come back to the Nets, our team will be better.
1 - D. Williams / J. Farmar / S. Gaines
2 - A. Morrow / M. Brooks
3 - D. Stevenson / S. Williams / D.James
4 - K. Humphries / S. Williams / J. Williams / D. Horner
5 - M. Okur / J. Petro / B. Lopez
What happened to the DWill and Hump pick and roll?
Was very effective last season.
In case you didn't know...MarShon is the man
