Do we want to see them succeed, or fall into roles in this league that don't make us regret trading them? I hope all of them, especially Gallo, do very well, but obviously i don't expect and don't want to see any of these players break into an all-star role. Any opinion on this?

We should wish them success, the same as we wish for David Lee. We already know we gave up a lot.

Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

They are gone. Doesn't matter anymore. They will play for a much longer time on some other team than they did on our team.

They were awesome. Best ever. I can't believe we gave them all up.

Not ever, but best in 10 years.
I have no doubt they will do good.
Have a big doubt about the Knicks.

Best of luck to all of 'em. I will miss Gallo's crazy cross eyed Italian swag. Hope Melo tries on defense as hard as Gallo did. Lord knows Melo has way more atheliticism and is capable of being a much better defender than Gallo...

Will he be that?

Love that Chandler was one of the few young guys in our league who would not do the whole chest bumping look at me routine after a big 3 or crazy dunk.

Kinda feel bad for Felton. He had a ton of heart and played hurt even if his execution on PnR and shot selection were questionable at times.

AR...never could really get attached to him. Really hope he doesn't blow up elsewhere.

And 2014..I hope to GOD is a crappy draft.

Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please

Wishing Gallo, Chandler and Timo much luck. I will be following their careers from afar.

Melo is what he is. He will not be anything more thet that.
If he already paid max why would he?

Definitely wishing them luck. Got a call from my cousin tonight, who's a Nets fan. Spent a while talking to him about the NJ/Denver rumors and how much he'd like Gallo if this trade goes down. Best of luck to all of our (former) guys. Hate to see them go.

Chris_Broussard

Nets will try, but Denver not likely to send any Knicks players back to NJ via trade, sources say. 14 minutes ago via Echofon

This certainly makes things easier on me.

I hope they all achieve their potential, just not when they play the Knicks

I think Karl will be good for Gallo's game. Karl coached in europe as well.

Yeah will be interesting to see if Gallo and Chandler will score as much. If they stay on Denver they will have to pick up a lot of slack. I think Chandler is what he is, but Gallo could be a much bigger scorer if he got more aggressive. Or he can fall back and basically just be Tim Thomas

Also Denver has Al Harrington- they basically have all of our scoring from last year.

The Italian community is in mourning for the loss of their pick. However, the Puerto Rican community is officially ecstatic.
