NJ Nets just as bad as NY Knicks - LocalApple

The new jersey nets lost at home last night to Sacremento. They were in the game and I thought it was a game they should have won. The nj nets are def not looking good and I think something has to happen in terms of trading or benching certain players. The Nets are just plain bad. They are not even exciting to watch like they were a few years ago.

If I were in charge of things over there I would trade Jason Kidd. It would suck to see him go but his age will eventually catch up to him and I think we owe it to him to put him on a championship contending team.

The Nets will be better in the future with guys like Sean Williams, Josh Boone, Marcus Williams (replace Kidd), Richard Jefferson, and Vince Carter. Although Vince Carter may be useful for trade bait as well. This team needs to start fresh.

I saw this in the New York Post yesterday. It mentions Rod Thorn stating if things dont change quickly he may be willing to pull the trigger on a trade if he see's a valuable return.

As of today the New Jersey Nets have now lost NINE (9) in a row and Jason Kidd has just publicly announced that he is no longer interested in staying with the New Jersey Nets.

The New Jersey Nets are a really sad organization. Even Nets announcer Mark Jackson ripped the team stating, "they play with no heart." I feel bad for coach Frank who consistently challenges his team and what do the Nets do, they get blown out of the water. On this recent West Coast trip they lost all 5 games and not by a point or two, but by 15 or more. This 6 game losing skid has even put them out of playoff contention, a half game behind Atlanta for the 8th playoff spot.

Seriously, Vince Carter DOES NOT deserve a 13 Million per year contract. I have watched all their games on the road out West because the games start later and I get home in time to watch. They are boring and frustrating. They consistently shoot from the outside even when they are DEAD cold. The never challenge the defense and always settle for the outside shot. Its sad to watch this shit drown, especially since you can look at that roster and argue that they may have one of the top teams in the East. Other then Boston and Detroit. JUST SAD!!
