Roster Reshaping

By: NBASCOUT / Special to netsinteractive.com

The Nets made some nice moves on draft day, but in doing so they cut ties to the "Big Three," the trio of Kidd, Carter and Jefferson that was the core of the team during the Kidd era that is no more. Vince has to be ecstactic for a chance to play for a ring down in Orlando, Florida, his home state.

In doing so, the Nets carved out enormous financial flexibility to allow them to be real players in the 2010 free agent sweepstakes that includes the likes of LeBron, Wade, Bosh and others.

Vince Carter and Ryan Anderson have been traded to the Magic in two seperate deals. Carter was traded for Rafer Alston, Tony Battie and Courtney Lee. Alston and Battie are both expiring contracts, and Lee will be entering his second season in the NBA after a decent rookie season. Ryan Anderson was also traded for a trade exception, no other players or picks were involved.

2009 NBA DRAFT

Mock ... Mock ... Who's There?

As everyone knows by now, the upcoming 2009 NBA draft will be held tomorrow, on June 25, between the hours of 7pm thru midnight ET at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

For the New Jersey Nets, a lot depends on who is there when they choose. The Nets' braintrust should have a shot at a number of good players.

If the Nets want another pick, they should 'bite the bullet' and buy it. Minnesota, Chicago or Portland have multiple selections in the first or second rounds.

In what has been termed a "weak" draft, there are pockets of opportunity, but many hazards. On balance, there will be more players that don't pan out than those that do. It's up to the personnel types to play this draft well ... if ... at all!

While I don't want to make a mockery of all the other mock boards out there, they represent no more than speculation (read: guesswork). Some, however, are more informed than others.

Some tell you what they think the teams will do. Others are about what the individual author of the mock would do if he were running the entire draft. Still, others are for the sake of getting something down on paper.

With that in mind what follows is NBASCOUT'S 2009 First Round Mock.

Enough is Enough with Lawrence Frank
Posted By Craig on 12/11/2008 - 3:17AM EST

After many analysts have dubbed the Nets the surprise team this year, ESPN was quick on nominating Lawrence Frank for the Coach of the Year award (link, for those interested.) If it is fair to give the credit for a “bad team” to have success to the coach, than the same can be said when the same franchise has seen the same patterns in losing over Lawrence Franks tenure as the Nets head coach.

Before going into details about the patterns of Lawrence Frank which will result in the Nets inability to achieve the goal of every team, every single year, winning the Championship. Let’s first explain what happened in the game against the Knicks on December 10th. The game started out with the Nets scorching hot, Devin Harris was dominating, the Nets were attacking and finding the open players on the perimeter and the shots were falling. The Nets built up a 15 point lead which looked like it was just the start to a great night of whooping the Knicks around. With the game seemingly out of reach for the Knicks, they needed a miracle to gain the momentum to beat the Nets in the Izod Center. But that miracle came from the Knicks head coach, Mike D’Antoni, something Knicks fans would have never expected to see last season. D’Antoni quickly went for his energy players looking for a boost, calling on his team to control the tempo of the game, and that they did. The Knicks beat the Nets in what used to be the Nets game, running.

Harris: 47?

Are you kidding me? This guy isn't gonna stop! He's having the year of his career right now, and it's just getting better and better. Several weeks ago, Devin had never even scored 30 points in a game.
