Petro Reveals Secrets of Being Ready
On his official website, Johan Petro reveals how he stays ready during a shortened season, those little extra's he's tried this year.
First of all, he says, listen to your body. "When your body is screaming, you have to listen and try to fix it because you can't go it alone with a little pain. It will only get worse," he writes. "You have to do a little more of everything. More time in the training room, more ice after practice and games, massages. Anything to treat your body at this point, you need to get it done ... The other thing is the energy level. You have to just try and keep it as high as possible. The one thing I've tried to do differently is rest."
Petro also advises, "Practice helps."

To be successful, apparently Avery's Defense System requires it to be manned by NBA All-Defensive Team.
It is not a coincidence
that the Nets have started to win games with this bozo glued to the bench.

It amazes me
that it took Avery as long as it dead to realize that all the big men minutes should be divided between Okur, Hump, and Shelden.
Petro was STARTING. Unreal.
Well Petro was pretty much the only one that knew the system
and was more familiar than Shelden and Okur

Honestly...
I wonder if Petro knows that he’s not very good at basketball (relative to other NBA players). It seems like he’d be the type who believes that he’s full of potential, but is just not being properly utilized in this system.
Read his website
He definitely doesn’t know he’s not very good at basketball LOL

Like this
WHEN YOU DESCRIBE the prototypical NBA center, he is not complete without superlative size, strength and athleticism. He’ll fight for the tough rebounds in the trenches, but is just as quick to burn you with a shot from 15 feet.
Johan Petro possesses all of these skills and more, and bears all the promise of fulfilling his vast potential.

here we go- My trade machine concoction- Kobe to Nets
http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=7hw9rpv
to Nets: Kobe, Ryan Anderson
to LAL- Deron williams, Dwight Howard
to Orlando- Andrew Bynum, MarShon Brooks, Rockets #1 pick, Dallas #1 pick.
why not?
kobe opens up brooklyn
pg- (problem)
sg- Kobe
sf- problem
pf- Anderson/Humph
c- lopez
we would have cap space to sign someone….
not going to happen.. but the Lakers arent going to win again with their current group.. this lets them reboot. Howard wont want to play with kobe.. but now he gets Deron in LA
if we are going to lose Deron.. not bad to get back Kobe.. cant argue that Kobe would sell tickets..
oh yeah. Definitely if we were going to lose Deron
But, we don’t know that yet.
i think it is a great trade
Lakers:
Deron
Morrow
Artest/Barnes
Pau
Howard
That team could contend….
Magic:
nelson

ok.. maybe they wouldnt want to trade Anderson… may have to rework that

IT’S DISGUSTING. Might as well retire other players’ numbers whose career he had shortened. I’m from Baltimore and I don’t even hate Billy Cundiff after last night missed FG. But this guy I do hate. That’s saying something.
He certainly was a integral part of Spurs' Championship run

Players run out on Morrow and often don’t touch him, but take up the space under him…not allowing him to land cleanly. Morrow often goes to the ground…so he doesn’t need to land fully …putting his ankles at risk.

You guys gotta admit he has been at least serviceable this season. Dude has been money with that jump shot.
Everything else he sucks at.
Official member of the I Love You Jerry25 Club
Follow @phatteus
Problem is...
a center’s job is fight for rebounds in the post and work inside the paint, not settling for jump shots.
He looks allergic to the paint and everytime he tries to make a move in the post he gets blocked, doesn’t matter who’s defending, I’d take Hump and Williams over this guy in a heartbeat.
for the right of watching tv broadcasted nets games...
RE: Knicks
Could they have an easier schedule to start the season?
They’ve played sub .500 teams all season and have gotten mad breaks. They play Denver on Denver’s 5th game in 7 nights (on the road) and the Knicks play at home, then have 2 days off….to prepare for the BOBCATS.

Thank you Johan Petro
I just found out I didn’t get a job that I had been interviewing for (luckily I am gainfully employed) that came down to myself and 1 other candidate – and that person apparently had more experience……
I was a little upset about not getting the job (actually pissed is a good word to describe it) and then I check NetsDaily and Johan Petro brings me to tears from reading this nonsense. Just the picture alone did it for me and then to read his self promotion was brilliant.
I wonder if this guy does motivational speaking? Anyone who is feeling down on their luck can first watch a highlight video of Petro’s career (spent cheering on the bench) and then listen to his anecdotes about how great of a player he is….When it’s all over they will be happy they are not clinically insane like Petro!
Petro also advises, “Practice helps.”
No ish dude. I never knew that…

And I quote “The only player I wish I could’ve played against during my era is Petro… He’s a great great player”

Petro-----NOPE!
As far as I am concerned, Petro should be wearing a super long, lime green four button suit during every NETS game. I hate his game. Seven foot guys shouldn’t be hoisting foul line jump shots. When Brook gets back, I’d like to see us waive Petro, or pay someone to take him before the trade deadline.
