With Robert 'Tractor' Traylor gone, the Nets have limited opportunities for the $1.6 million left from their mid-level exception and the team may not necessarily use the money to pick up a big man. Instead, Rod Thorn may go for someone like the Bobcats' Jason Kapono. With the signing of Linton Johnson, the Nets' roster is still two short of the new league minimum of 14.
