D-Will On His Way Out...Really?

Photo

The pundits give Nets fans no rest. The day after Deron Williams caused the Garden to go quiet, and the day before Dwight Howard arrives in Newark, ESPN Boston writer Peter May says the Celtics should trade Rajon Rondo for Deron Williams because a "Nets official" says there's "'no chance' D-Will will stay with New Jersey."

Wait a minute. What Nets "official" or should we say what kind of a Nets "official"? In his original wording, May quoted, "a Nets official who spoke on condition of anonymity."

Not long after, May's piece was edited and the source described as "one person in the Nets organization who is not directly connected to negotiations with Williams offered his opinion on the star's intentions."

Who that? It's not Billy King or Bobby Marks. They are certainly "directly connected to negotiations". Could be a disgruntled ticket salesman, someone in Moscow whose words got lost in translation, an intern or for all we know, the janitor (no offense). Of course, says a "Nets official" we talked to, the story is accurate at its core. "He is right that there is no way he stays in New Jersey because he will actually be in Brooklyn next year."

Someone mentioned it in the previous thread.

He might have misquoted that anonymous Nets source from last week or so who said that DWill would not be here if Dwight wan’t.

I think it's fine.

It honestly shocks me how many people in the media display that they don't even deserve to be employed for such big-name networks.

It still irritates me that you have an idiot like Tony Kornheiser, who claims D-Will has stated that he doesn’t like it on the Nets, holding a major role on a national TV show.

are you seriously calling Tony Kornheiser an idiot?

he may be wrong on his comments about d will, but he is one of the most well respected, experienced, and prolific journalists period; forget sports journalists. He has written 4 successful books and worked for the two most prolific newspapers in the country, The Washington Post and the New York times………..

Very true

It’s going to annoy me when they jump on our bandwagon. I don’t understand why they do everything in their power to pretend Dwight isn’t coming here and Deron is leaving. I guess Dwight to Brooklyn isn’t sexy enough so they first have to engage Lakers, Mavs, Bulls, Knicks, and now Celtics fans in the story line. Are there any big markets left to link deron and/ or Dwight to? Detroit maybe?

had to share this comment from an NBA.com talking about how, Deron destroyed Lin

February 21, 2012 at 5:33 pm

Woahhh, slow down, as far as I’m concerned the person that was paid no attention at the end of the bench is the one that is the better player. First off, the guy is only in his 2nd year with NBA and he already has proven enough from the previous games especially the first game that he played against the Nets. I’m pretty sure he has the capability is tearing up D-Will if he wanted to, but instead he communicates with the team and is "consistent." Deron is not consistent so unless he can manage to accumulate win streaks, he will not be as good as Lin."

This guy actually said Deron will not be as good as Lin!!!!!!!!!!!!! lmao

That's not funny at all to me, it's rather disgusting actually

And other Nets fans and small market team fans understand that too. These ANAL ysts just wish to pump up the popular teams at the cost of real analysis and journalistic integrity. Is Lin really THAT consistent? Can ANYONE even say that he is consistent after what, 9 games?

Is Deron as a playmaker consistent? Maybe, maybe not, it’s really hard to judge when the roster around him is a revolving door. You can easily say that he consistently sets up his teammates in great position, yet his teammates consistently miss open jumpers, fumble the ball, or get completely denied at the rim.

Take Lin out of D’antoni’s offense and put him in a starting lineup next to Sheldon Williams and DeShawne Stevenson and let’s see how consistent those assist numbers are.

by Murse Mike on Feb 22, 2012 7:47 AM EST up reply actions  

so funny how this "story" comes out a day after we just showed up the Knicks on their home floor and slowed their hype train a little bit

I don’t like the pull the “the media hates us” card for nothing but… boy it sure feels like it sometimes. when we do ever get positive press? everyone wants to stop on our dream, or put forth every scenario as to how our dream will turn into a nightmare as if it’s inevitable, when all indications are WE HAVE A PRETTY GOOD CHANCE OF THIS WORKING OUT.

yet if just pay attention to ESPN or mainstream media, you’d think Deron is all but gone, just because they can’t fathom the Nets being a good team at some point in the near future. what?

by sheepareevil on Feb 21, 2012 7:11 PM EST reply actions  

Imagine how much they hated us when they kept bashing Kidd and his Nets

yet Kidd and his Nets kept winning in the playoffs, against more talented teams, using teamwork, effort, and defense. Kidd was a superstar, but didn’t often put up superstar numbers, making it even harder to appreciate the great things he did.

The media doesn’t like stories like that. They want star teams vs star teams, in big markets. And by picking on the Nets, they get liked more in those big markets.

A week ago, Bill Simmons wrote something that essentially said: “every single person I’ve talked to that knows what is going on, says that Deron Williams is going to end up in Dallas this summer.”

Today, Bill Simmons says on Colin Cowherd’s radio show, “you know, Colin, I am starting to think it’s weird that Deron Williams isn’t really complaining or requesting a trade. It’s almost like he knows that they are going to get Dwight Howard. I’m beginning to think there’s an agreement already in place.”

So you knowing very little Asians who actually watch basketball

Means there really are very little Asians that watch basketball? Us diehards?

C’mon guys, why is Lin’s popularity somehow causing people to become racists? I’m Asian. I happen to be a Nets diehard for the last 20 years. I hate the Knicks because I think they are run by a bunch of clowns who think they are the Yankees of basketball. But I do root for Lin. Yeah, guess what, part of the reason I root for him is because he’s Asian. So what? Does he deserve this media attention. Probably not. But I also like the kid because he’s humble and he wants to go out there and play his heart out despite no one really giving him a chance. I absolutely respect him for that. You want to hate him because he’s a Knick. I’m down with that. But I don’t get this general Asian-bashing because of his sudden popularity.

Francessa said Dwill is all-world, and no one would have stopped him last night.

Maddog was really ripping into Lin and the Knicks, and giving mich respect to Dwill.

Was awesome hearing this kind of Nets talk on the radio. Also that they were both realistic when talking about Lin, with Maddog harsher than Francessa.

I’m surprised to see the Mavs up so high. It has seemed like they’ve had a LOT of empty seats in the lower level this season, but maybe those are just a few expensive ones that go un-purchased.

compared to crowds at Chicago Stadium, United Center can be a funeral home

one, United Center is much bigger and thus the acoustics of the arena makes it harder to get it louder

two, Bulls crowd has become very “corporate” over the last decade

three, i think in connection to the madness that occurs at baseball games in Chicago they enforced a stricter alcohol limit at games

LOL at one of the comments
Williams is the most overrated player in the game, probably moreso than Carmelo even.

I’m thoroughly enjoying him losing all these games. He’s should not be an all-star over Kyrie Erving and Brandon Jennings who both have a lot more success with less. When you run a legend as Jerry Sloan out of the league. Karma comes around and bites you hard.

From calling him overrated to saying Jennings is more deserving to claiming he drove Sloan out, this is hilarious.

Irving was solid but he has no rep and i doubt he would look as good on the nets

Jennings is a bum, the Bucks have 3 more wins right?

Jackson
Livingston

or

Shelden
Hump
Morrow
Brooks
Petro

Tomorrow is going to be a crazy atmosphere. When they announce the Magic lineup, everyone is going to get booed and then Dwight is probably going to get a standing O.

The Club

Lakers, Celtics, Knicks(don’t belong here), Mavs(don’t belong here)….these teams don’t want to see teams like the Nets or Clippers get into ‘the club’ — teams who feel like they are the NBA. In all honesty those teams have been the NBA for some legit reason like championships, or because the media have chosen them to be so. I’m sick of it, and most Nets fans and Clippers fans are too. And based on the bad PR the NBA has gotten from the Bron Decision, the Lockout, or Stern’s handling of the CP3 trade…I think now more than ever the bottom feeders can get themselves into the “club” and be legit members for the long haul cuz Basketball is Basketball, it’s time for the sport to graduate so that all teams can be respected and players in small market teams can be recognized and marketed better. The media, especially locally has always put the Nets in the shadow of the Knicks, and thanks to Ratner/Proky…the Nets are about to have a rebirth, not similar to what the Clippers have done this season, but better. I’m tired of “the club” attitude in the NBA. It’s time for it to become like the NFL where any team can come from being the worse team in one season to being world champions the following season.

but the Bulls…especially cuz of Jordan who is probably the best EVER….they’re in a league of their own. For as arrogant as they came off during the Jordan years, or however their fans or announcers come off, the organization itself doesn’t seem to try and pull of “back channel” deals to try and get CP3 and D12 like the Lakers do, or when McHaled traded KG to the Celts. Despite the Celts and Lakers having more championships, I think the Bulls are a whole lot classier…just my opinion. And whether you liked Jordan or not…he’s probably is…simply the best.

Even San Antonio, who I hate as a Nets fan either way

But the mainstream media cannot accept a star player choosing to go anywhere else. They don’t realize that it would benefit their cause if they supported every market equally. Casual fans don’t recognize small market players because they never see them. Those same teams never get national coverage because no one knows who they are, and the quest for ratings takes priority

I wouldn't put San Antonio in that class

They are considered a relativity small market. They just have a incredibly successfully run franchise with great fans. Similar to Oklahoma City. I would put Detroit well before them on a list of NBA media markets, it is just as apparent right now because they are in full rebuilding move, but if they were in our position and making the moves we were making the media would be all over it

Dwight Howard Rumors: Los Angeles Lakers’ Chances of Acquiring Orlando Magic Star “Slim and None,” According to Report

but than

Los Angeles’ potential involvement in the Howard sweepstakes is key because it can offer, in All-Star center Andrew Bynum, the best possible return for Howard via trade. Though not quite the player Howard is, the 24-year-old Bynum is nonetheless a powerhouse, averaging 16.3 points—as a third offensive option—13.1 boards, and 2.1 blocked shots

Bynum is all world they should take him AND MOST IMPORTANTLY

Berger says coach Mike Brown, in his first year with the team, only learned the Lakers agreed to trade Lamar Odom to Dallas after the deal went through. Finally, one of the Lakers’ three remaining scouts is a good buddy of Jim Buss’ named Chaz, a former bartender. NBA fans owe it to themselves to read the story.

But my top 5 is

Sullinger/MKG

Can’t see him being picked in the top 3 cause of the hype surrounding the first 3 guys tbh so might as well trade down and get something like a extra first rounder like marshon’s trade if we want to get mkg, if not just draft either drummond/davis, i like those guys a lot

really?

I think a GM would be insane to take Barnes over MKG. I haven’t really followed the draft buzz yet though so I don’t know what the experts and gurus say I agree with your top 2 but I still like Gilchrist over Drummond based on need for this team and I would def put Sullinger before Lamb right now. But then again I just watch the game I don’t evaluate talent for a living

Orlando Preview for the game

The Magic will face the New Jersey Nets, the team said to sit atop Howard’s list of preferred trade destinations. And the game will be played at the Prudential Center, where long-suffering Nets fans chanted “We want Dwight!” and “We want How-ard!” earlier this season.“They’ve very loyal fans, let’s just say that,” said Magic power forward Ryan Anderson, who played for the Nets in 2008-09, his rookie season. “I’m interested to see what’s going to happen. Obviously, they’re not going to hide their feelings in New Jersey and in New York or that area. From what I know playing there, the fans definitely will tell you what they think and be very vocal about it. I have no idea how they’re going to react. We’ll see.”

My uncle owns various luxury condos in NJ, and he sold units to at least 7 different nets, including Yi, Terrence williams, and this story comes with an even more interesting one. he sold vince carter a unit 2 days before he was traded, but my uncle got all the money even though VC had to bounce after 2 days… i met a couple of these nets, but they alla rent on the team anymore so they left the condos by now, but the condos have been filled by present nets, not exactly sure who, possibly farmar and others

The Nets will never win when it comes to the media

As soon as Dwight is traded here, all the media will discuss how surprising it is, and that Dwight is stupid for going to the Nets, and that the Nets low-balled the Magic, and that the Magic are really dumb for not trading him to the Lakers, and how terrible Brook Lopez is, etc, etc…

No matter what the Nets accomplish, it’ll never be enough for the rest of the sports media to respect us. If the Nets win, they’ll just say that it was luck and that we’ll never repeat. Let that be a driving force for our players now like it was for Kidd and the Nets in the past.
