Hey, I was an SAR fan too. I had him and Swift as my top FA choices. I don't feel bad about thinking he was a good option, how could we know about this? True and very true. The Nets are about screwed if this is a real problem that isn't going to heal itself. I suspect they do take him and hope for the best. Even if damage goods, at this point they have so much invested in him and built there offseason around him they almost have to. Further, if they rescend the trade, what then? The other legit FA 4s (SS, AW, DM) are off the board, which makes those secondary options that are there (Evans, Songalia) more likely to get overpaid AND every other team with a PF they might try to trade for will ask for the moon. There are no good options for the Nets. The only saving grace is the contract isn't so big overall they can't take him with some injury risk.
I feel sorry for SAR he is one of the good guys in the game.. I hope this works out well for him and he signs with a solid team. J
Maybe the Rockets can trade either Spoon or Baker to the Nets for the trade exception and a happy meal.
Dude, Bibby has proven he can win. SAR has proven he's always losing and he's never happy on a team. He's the opposite of Robert Horry. Good Stats, No Heart. Horry=Not great stats, All Heart. SAR=Heartless. At least Antoine Walker has heart. bad shot selection, but heart.
Well i don't think he has heart but as a former vancouver grizzlies fan, I can tell you that he once scored all the team's points in the 4th quarter. 20 something points i think BUT I guess that just shows how crappy the other players were. and bibby blossomed with the kings, although u can tell he was gonna be a player during his last year with the grizzlies. they couldnt win with that bench. *goes back to lurking*
I think it's got something to do with Kidd. Kidd = bad luck. Next season Vince Carter will be injured again. Blame Kidd.
