They'll be interesting, but I think they have too many old pieces. Shaping up to be another paper tiger.

Good thing he took the mmle at least and not the minimum or I'd be eating crow!

time to man up

I do get people assuming the Nets will be just another Lakers superteam hype.

Different players, more depth, and more winners in the team. They will be right there and I'll happily eat my words IF uninjured.

lol 'more winners' kobe and gasol combined for 7 rings... 8 with metta

[Chrono90]

Defense wins championships. I think a better line up would be

D Will
JJ
AK47
KG
Lopez

With PP getting the green light off the bench along with Blatche and Evans

I didn't clarify what i wrote.

More winners than they had last year, I don't see Deron, JJ, and Lopez as winners without help from proven winners ie. KG and Pierce.

I agree with you.

That is exactly how they should operate that team, Pierce would be a perfect spark off the bench and very good 6th man.

And it would take a big load off pierces back and extend his career too

However I could see the rookie coach thinking it would be better to have ex teammates playing together in the starting lineup.

Some long arms and good defense will be seen in this Nets team. AK/KG/Lopez protecting the basket would make it very difficult to drive on them.

[Magic 32]

I love that PP and KG has another shot at bugging Lebron.

On a completely un-related note; Today Andre Kirilenko's parents found a suitcase containing $10,000,000 on their door-step.

NBA literally can't do shit if Prok transfers 10m into AK47/Parents' account in Russia.

I would sign with Mikhail Prokhorov also. Maybe Prok can hook up AK with a gig in his business empire after basketball. I don't think most people realize how powerful Prok is. This man can run against Putin in the Russian election and live to tell the tale.

This is funny. Even the most powerful man in Russia is an ant when compared to Americans. There's a reason this dude does all his shady shit in Russia. He even tries any of it in the USA and he gets put away for life. He ain't shit.

[HomieWeMajor]

Evans won't be a third string player. Blatche will be our back-up center. Plumlee won't see any PT this season.

The Nets are championship favorites. Just give it to them now. Livingston, Terry, AK47, Evans and Blatche as your bench?!? Too deep of a team.

It's funny seeing these old threads of people overrating
