Reasons to like this team?

One of the most exciting young cores we've ever had, watching them get better and watching them play a style that suits their abilities, which Brown would never have done.

I watch these playoffs and I know that guys like Nate, Lee, Craw would fit. Curry needs to improve, and he's a giant IF, but IF he can this team can be a playoff team with a young core. Sure there are ifs, but I really think people are freaking out and undervaluing what we have here. And that's understandable after a season of Larry disparaging every player on the roster and ESPN/TNT making fun of us every night. But the thing you have to realize is Larry was trying to get control of the team and make Isiah look bad. I guess he did in some people's eyes, but REALLY, LArry Brown is the one at fault for last season. If you're telling me this team isn't talented or that it was a bunch of mismatched parts, I don't believe you. Brown never stuck with a lineup long enough to know the parts weren't matched correctly.

Reasons to like this team?

Seeing how good Nate can get.

Seeing if Crawford continues to become a complete player/leader.

Seeing how good Frye can be.

Seeing if Lee can develop a jumper and become a starter.

Seeing if Curry can get his legs back over the summer and become a dominant force on offense.

Seeing if Qrich can find his shot and stay healthy.


it's really not as bad as Larry made it seem, and what people need to realize is that he made it seem bad for a reason.

Uh oh.

There's the dark side . . .

and then there's the FREAKING NETS FOR CHRIST SAKE!!

look at it this way - you do get to hear Marv. But you do have to watch Collins.

i know what's it like, though. i made the big move from the celtics to the knicks. biggest decision of my life. much much bigger than stuff like whether to get married, have kids, believe in god or not, bite the left cheek or the right cheek. none of that matters - it was switching nba teams that defined my life!!!

but you should just keep one thing in mind . . IF you do make the switch. . . .

we're gonna find you.

oh, you'll be findable. there'll be some nets board, with some poster named ddik, or retrac or ffej or nroht or something. we'll know.

then you know what we'll do?

that's right.

we'll all join that board.

you know what our names will be?

bonn1. bonn2. bonn3. bonn4. bonn5. bonn6. bonn7. etc. etc. etc.

and we will snit each and every post you make on that nets board.

but take your time. it's a big decision.

we all understand.
