Deron Williams and Kris Humphries Out vs. Celtics; Brooks To Start
by NetsDaily on Jan 4, 2012 10:23 AM EST
Email
PrintDeron Williams told reporters at Wednesday morning's shootaround that he wouldn't be playing against the Celtics Wednesday night, because of his sore ribs. Williams injured the ribs in the second quarter against the Pacers on Monday in a collision with Tyler Hansbrough.
Kris Humphries, who suffered a sprained shoulder in Sunday's loss in Cleveland, will miss his second straight game. MarShon Brooks will get his first career start in place of Williams.

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
Is exactly what we would need in a SF with Howard, D Will, Brooks and Lopez.
Could you imagine that lineup?!?!
D Will
Brooks
Kidd Gilchrist
Lopez
Howard
Oh boy that right there is a major championship contender for the next 5 years. Funny this is, so long as the Magic don’t trade Howard it’s complete possible.

Guys... For all of your health and wellness. Do not watch this game.
People will complain when we get blown out… but we’re missing our top 3 players. Maybe Avery should give Farmar the start. My thinking though: do not watch this game and take a night off to enjoy.
This won’t show us good things. Avery might as well rest Brooks and Okur so they don’t get injured since we will have that good luck.
Brooks is getting his first start of his young career, why shouldn't we watch? Let's see what the kid has by being the first option and being the starter

We could potentially be rolling out the worst starting 5 in NBA history tonight.
Gaines, Petro, SheWill, D. James and Marshon …………and it gets even better with the schleps we have coming off the bench.
Can we start the SAVE OKUR movement
Keep Okur our #1 player from getting injured!!!
No joke...
AJ better watch giving players too many minutes especially someone like Okur who was injured last year.
You're watching?
I always seem to remember about a half hour in that there’s a game on… and it’s the second quarter and the Nets are down 15-20. I’ve barely watched 10 minutes this year.
At least I know not to even bother tuning in tonight
Maybe Avery is resting everybody for the more winnable game in Toronto on Friday.
winnable??
toronto will run us off of the floor. Bet on it!!

Probably
But Toronto is the weakest opponent of our next 3, so yes I’d consider that game “more winnable.”

"Next year, with a full training camp, I think he can go after that Scott Skiles' record of 30." - Billy King
Marshon for 40
but he could really get 30 in this one.
Interesting how the super rook would react when the defense collapses on him because he’s the only one left to create offense.
No joke, first thing that came to my mind was Brooks would get 40 as well because who else is going to help him out?!
This is going to be a very very ugly game.

Jameson curry
I think we should call up this young fellow from the D to help us out a little..he knows Avery play book..and when Deron Williams come back he can play backup small forward since we have very little in the depth chart in that positon, and he wont cost us nothing.he could be a surprise.
true..
In that case we should send down the other D league we have since we are not using him,than bring up Curry since he might do something..
Nope, even if you send somebody already on the roster to the D-league
the roster will still be at 15. We’ll have to waive somebody if we want somebody new in.
This is going to be a worst team in the league type lineup tonight.

This season is a joke and most coaches know it. Watch smart teams rest their star players as much as they can.
Hopefully AJ rests his players too even though he will be compelled to get every minute he can out of them.
I don’t want to see MarShon playing more then 30 minutes tonight tops.
Too many games being played in a short period of time to put a rookie out there for that many minutes.

Brooks early start
based on some quick research, Marshon Brooks is starting a way ahead of other Nets rookies in the last decade. Richard Jefferson and Sean Williams started in their eighth game; Brook Lopez in his 10th, Nenad Krstic in his 23rd and Derrick Favors in his 34th.

get triple teamed tonight
he’s the only Nets player that can do anything, so obv Rivers will take him out of the flow of the game early and often. I expect a bad shooting night and TOs galore for our prized Rook!
too bad eh?
I mean yeah, in a perfect world, MarShon would defy the odds and drop a 40 bomb on team that traded him to us, but lmao….not happening!!
they won't have to triple team him
they’ll let him get his numbers. he will, and we’ll still lose by 30.

Im never one to jump the gun on young prospects….I was even convinced that Lopez’s solid rookie year was a fluke. But Brooks is maybe the best scoring talent we’ve drafter in over 15 years…hes also not one dimensional. He plays with hustle. He can pass the ball. He rebounds. He cares. He wont dazzle with you with windmill dunks or stuff over a big man or any high flying acrobatics. But he’ll put up some gaudy numbers and besides that turnaround/fadeaway jumper over Joe Johnson was no accident. That was a deliberate move over a premiere shooting guard in the NBA.

Either way, this is good news for the Nets. As long as Williams is on board — and it would seem that he is — losing can only help the Nets.

The fact that he can become a 20PPG guy makes it a little easier. Pair MarShon with Lopez and if we get Luck and get a top 3 pick we can instantly be seen as young up and coming team. Lopez foot is a little scary but MarShon gives me a little hope if the Dwight thing doesnt go down. Also it’s still no 100% guarantee that DWill leaves all that money behind.
This could have been done seasons ago instead of continuing to break up the team

W/ no Dwight trade,
this isn’t going to be a pretty season. But once the team knows which direction it’s building toward, things will get better.
Our expectations are too high right now b/c we’re essentially in win now mode with Deron.
Dwight still only wants Nets and is ok with going to the worst team in the NBA… Or he waits until the offseason and takes 1 less guaranteed year.

It seems pretty obvious to me.
we have yet to hear that Howard has said that he will only sign an extension with the Nets, and the fact that LA is still a possibility kind of makes this questionable. Or are you just consciously ignoring the fact that the Lakers could legitimately throw a wrench in this plan?

i have to agree
Not only is LA still an option, Bynum has started off in beast mode. If he continues, and LA still wants Howard, and Orl ownership is still looking to stay competitive, a straight swap of Dwight for Bynum is not out of the realm of possibility. In his 3 games, Bynum has proven to be the 2nd best C in the league. Why would Orlando even consider anything the Nets have to offer.

Depends on your definition of L.A.
Everybody has his/her own definition.
There are, like, three different L.A.s.
There’s L.A. – downtown.
There’s L.A. the main area, which would include Westwood and such. When I lived in Westwood, my postal town was L.A.
Then there’s the greater L.A. county.

He doesn't care about playing in the NBA anymore.

Nah, Okur used up his money

I would've given him 11M for one year instead of trading for Okur

Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
DWill also wanted Caron Butler
Great PG. Horrendous GM.
Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
That remains to be seen...
But I wasn’t confident entering the season and i’m even less confident now that the Nets will get anything out of him.
Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
Well, I kind of did...
When he signed, I wondered how he would do in Avery’s system, but my main concern was the fact he was almost certain to regress on a career high 3pt% (and a career year).
And outside of his shooting, he’s a bad basketball player. He needs to shoot well to be useful.
Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
If you're playing him against stretch fours, maybe...
I was never a fan.
And BTW, according to hoopshype, his second year is a player option. If he continues to be awful, the Nets are on the hook for 3.2M next year.
Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
I didn't like the Shawne signing
He burned us once, and we gave him an opportunity to burn us again . If he plays awful, we’ll likely use the stretch provision on his contract & have $1.07mil of dead money over the next 3 years instead.

Rookie starting
This a definite lose game, I’d be happy if we lost by 10. I mean i’m not sure why most of you are all up in arms about us losing, majority of your predictions without lopez had us losing a tough starting schedule. either way at least we get to see the rookie brooks start and see what he’s made of. may even increase his trade value if the deal with dwight is still even feasible.
Bynum having monster games in Lakers. Not looking good for us (although Lopez with a broken foot sort of nixed the deal in my mind). Only thing we can hope for is that the owners of the Magic aren’t too inclined to sending Dwight to the Lakers so they can win a championship….again. Still, with the way Bynum is playing lately it’s hard to not look at him being a solid piece in return for Dwight.
Or Dwight wants Nets or nothing
Alhough I can’t imagine why he’d want that.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
"Your 2010-2011 New Jersey Nets - It Is What It Is"
Bynum
I was just going to post that this is one of the headlines on ESPN:
“Andrew Bynum has become a double-double machine. But are there enough shots in L.A.?”
Looks like the Bynum out of LA wheels are already being greased. However, I was just talking to friends about how amazing it would be for D-Will and Dwight to come to Brooklyn and start their OWN legacy. We are arguably the worst team in the NBA right now. It would be admirable for them to do something gutsy and turn us around. But are they up for the challenge?
"We are arguably the worst team in the NBA right now"
No arguments here :P
It appears that's what Dwight and Deron want too
It’s just awful that Lopez broke his foot. Whole season collapsed before it began.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
"Your 2010-2011 New Jersey Nets - It Is What It Is"
Bynum is playing himself into Orlando
He could actually be eager to get out of Kobe’s shadow and have his own team.
The question is if Howard’s willing to get under Kobe’s shadow until the guy retires.
I still REALLY think it would be WAY too risky to base the future of your franchise on Andrew Bynum. He may be playing well now, but the guy is more injury prone than a 90 year old woman. I will be upset if Howard gets traded for Bynum, but when Bynum returns to his old ways of only playing an 8th of the season because he has a toothache it will serve Orlando right.
he's not injury prone
have someone crash directly in your knee cap and see if it doesn’t blow up. In reality, Bynum’s injuries were not caused because of him. He stayed healthy most of last season, and is in better shape this season. If he stays healthy through March, especially in this condense season, Magic will take him in a heartbeat.

Obviously we are severely short-handed, and this could easily be a blowout. but I like what I’ve seen from Brooks so far and am looking forward to watching him play tonight with some added pressure. He doesn’t seem like the type to shy away from the opportunity either.
Also we still have Gaines, James, Okur, Morrow. And the team won’t lay down, so it should be watchable to a degree.

I've been impressed with Gaines actually
He looks like a player that knows he has the full confidence of his coach.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
"Your 2010-2011 New Jersey Nets - It Is What It Is"
Gaines is better defensively
and Farmar is a better shooter & probably has a little better court vision.
One shouldn’t play over the other, but both need to play, or at least we need to try Farmar to see if he can give us anything on offense, b/c we’re sorely lacking.
Gaines
I have no problem with him starting Gaines in absence of D-Will, he’s been pretty good this year. He’s probably not as good of a passer as Farmar but his assists have been up this year and he’s a decent scorer and good rebounder for his size. He also has the 2nd best net on court/off court +/- on the team.
FYI, Avery told Deron he wouldn't be playing
"It’s not my ribs, it’s the muscle – obliques," Williams explained. "It’s pretty sore. Coach and (the trainer) thought it was best for me to sit out. If I got hit on it again, it wouldn’t be good.
"We’ll see how it goes. I woke up this morning and it was a little more sore than yesterday. I thought it would be better today."

Rose just got 250 million over 10 years from Nike.
I’m feeling more and more confident all the time that the Nets are going to play this season out, trade a Top 3 pick to the Orlando Magic, possibly with Brook Lopez OR Kris Humphries, and sign and trade Dwight Howard to the Nets for a 4 year, 76 million dollar deal.
Howard will sign a huge deal with Adidas if he goes to Brooklyn. I think he wants to play with Deron in Brooklyn.
Why Sign & Trade at that point?
We can sign him outright & keep Lopez.
Weird
Not sure why the subject double posted & not the comment.
We can sign Howard outright in the offseason, so why make it a sign & trade?
Trade Lopez
If you have Deron & Dwight, we need a star wing player. We’d have a lot of flexibility.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
"Your 2010-2011 New Jersey Nets - It Is What It Is"
Maybe not a star player
But I’d take a Wallace, Granger, etc. type.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
"Your 2010-2011 New Jersey Nets - It Is What It Is"
Wait, we play the season out and then give the Magic a top 3 pick??
No way. If the Magic want to deal, they have to do it by the deadline. If not, we’ll have the room to sign Dwight as a free agent.
The ONLY circumstance I’d trade for Dwight after the season is because Dwight doesn’t want to terminate his contract, and instead play another year under the current one and sign the long term deal next offseason.

I’m thinking this is part of the Nets plans as well. They know they aren’t going to exactly be stellar this season, so they either they trade for Dwight by the deadline, or if they don’t, they sign him outright plus add a top pick from one of the deepest drafts in a long time

No wonder nobody respects Brook
when our fans think that best we can get for him is Batum

Blazers aren't trading him
and Nets would never trade Lopezs unless its for Howard.

Try READING the comment, acquire Howard, then trade him for a wing. Lopez would make a terrible PF, and you’d be getting an above average young SF with upside and a solid back-up big
Howard does not make it to Free Agency
and even if he does, he doesn’t leave the Magics empty handed. And Howard to Nets talks have been dead since Lopez went down, so there is nothing stirring now no matter how much people want to believe it.

Why doesn’t Howard make it to free agency? If they have a chance at going deep in the playoffs they have to try.
LOL, if they have a chance?
They aren’t making any noise with that team against the Hawks, Bulls, or Heat

U must be crazy if you think Batum has the value of Lopez
there is no way you can justify that with stats or anything else. A few weeks ago we were discussing whether Lopez had more value than Bynum(a fair argument either way) & now Lopez is down to the level of Batum? Yes Batum would be a clear upgrade over any SF we currently have, but that ain’t saying much!
agreed
you have D12+D-Will you need wing players who can shoot and defend

You forgot Plan A
which is to trade Lopez and pieces for Dwight mid-season.
Plan A and the best case scenario aren’t the same thing.
Very Brilliant but Unfortuantely
It is readily apparent the Nets are not very good at having plans or dreams come to fruition. They are like a row boat, cast away in darkening seas, drifting farther and farther away from shore………..
Who will be next to fall out of the boat?
We'll be ok

I guess he has realized

Heat is going to win this year away. it is Fate. The Heat win championship and get an “*” Next to their names in the history books. They can only win in a shorten season.
Your very optimistic
to think the Heats won’t win more down the road from now.

This is their last chance
b/c after this season the Nets will be winning all the ’ships with Dwight and DWill!
Yea, Nets could never and will never stop Wade and Lebron.
We have a PG that can’t score or setup players, and a potential C that will leave 10 points at the Free Throw line AND can get into foul trouble easily along with technical fouls.

While I wasn't being serious,
Nets would be strong where the Heat are weak. But it’s not even worth talking about until it happens (if it does at all).
and the other way around
Wade, Bosh, and Lebron can easily drop 70+ on our heads. This is years ago, and Heats did well for there first year last season. Howard and D-Willz can’t compete with the Heats, unless they can some how get 5 solid players to start/come off the bench.

If the Nets get Dwight
I will put more thought into my opinion on how well they match up w/ the Heat. I’d rather have him than not, even if they don’t match up well w/ them.
Agreed, I can say the same.

They might get 2
3 is pushing it. I don’t see that team staying together past the contracts they signed to play together. Everyone acts like they will be playing together for the next 10 years and win 8 titles in those 10 years lol…. not happening.
It's not a guarantee with teh Heat either
fact is they have the same weaknesses they had last year; no center and no point guard. I do think they’re the favorites, but don’t think the Bulls or Thunder will lie down and let them win.
also I don’t buy this asterisk crap. every team has the same shortened schedule and preparation time, the champion is the champion.
by sheepareevil on Jan 4, 2012 12:38 PM EST up reply actions
The thing is, the Heats don't need a good C or PG
Lebron and Wade command the ball way to much for a PG to be efficient, and Bosh is now bigger, stronger, and better. They made it to the finals last season with an incomplete team, and now there much better than last season IMO.

Hey guys, it's been a while since I've stopped by.
I really feel for you with all these injuries you’ve had in the past few weeks, as a Portland fan, I know what it’s like more than most anybody.
I just wanted to drop by and comment about MarShon Brooks whom I had severe reservations about and was not buying into the hype that you guys seemingly thrust upon him ever since he was drafted, but after looking at his stats… wow…
Per 36 stats: 23ppg, 6rpg, .547 TS% and a PER of 25.0. I know it’s a small sample size, but I’m willing to jump on the bandwagon and state that you guys certainly got the steal of the draft.
The smarter you are, the more likely you are to be tripping balls at any given moment.
Bring Back Dre.
Shhhhhhh....
