    Interesting. He is an unrestricted free agent.

    Could be a nice pick up on the cheap for the 3 spot. Tmac at 2, Barry at 1.

    He has a bad shooting year last year but his career numbers are good. I don't know much else about him.


    This is cut and paste from real gm :

    New York Post: Jason Kidd's knee surgery was a success and the Nets may have come upon an unexpected cash windfall when Rodney Rogers surprisingly did not excercise the final year on his contract.

    Rogers may have failed to file his notice on time, therefore losing $3.355 million and becoming an unrestricted free agent.

    Kidd's knee surgery went without a hitch. "The doctor said it went very well," said team CEO Rod Thorn.

    I like his size at the 3.

    With Rogers playing the small forward position, opposing team will be more reluctant to put their small forward on Mcgrady or else Rogers will make them pay for sticking their shooting guard on him. This way Mcgrady always has a huge height advantage over opposing 2-guards.

    If he comes cheap, I wouldn't mind if the Rockets gave him a short contract.

    rodney rogers used to be really good. but now he's way over the hill... can't jump, and his shot has become less reliable because he gets no lift. he would only take up boki's backup minutes were he to come here.

    What yip said.

    And he's not really a 3, more of just a short 4 who jacks up threes. And he's fat. And his d sucks.

    The Nets were lucky to get out from underneath the contract that gm Kidd gave him.
