yeah i guess so.
but they got all-star jameer back.

and now rashard can go back to SF.

eh i think they're the same team. maybe 3rd in the east. 2nd max IMO
I don't think their team is a big contender if they use a more traditional line up. It will play right into the hands of the Cavs and Celtics.

Hedo is overrated to a extent. VC will do everything hedo can do only better. Hedo wasnt that great until he got in stan's system.

well they'll win games which will make them contenders.

Hedo and VC's game aren't that similar...

The only thing Hedo has on VC is passing, and VC can do that too.

Rip don't argue VC>Hedo

yeah Pugz. i was gonna say VC is an underrated passer.
not great, but he can go get you 5 assists

i know he had at least 1 triple double this season. maybe more

Vc is a better scorer than hedo. He's better in the clutch than hedo. He can pass and be the playmaker if need be. And he attacks the hole better than hedo. I love hedo's game but he's overrated.

VC will cry for more shot attempts and touches like Dwight did last year.

When it comes to be being a bigger superstar/name...VC>Hedo.
But when it comes to efficiency, Hedo is just as good. He just doesn't have the market appeal that VC has.

I'd assume Hedo is better when it comes to the locker room too.

And you know this how? He knows he will be second to Dwight.

That's what I was going to ask you when you said VC does all those things better?
That's just your opinion. I happen to think Hedo can do all of those things just as good. He is a great shooter, can attack and put it on the floor. Plays point-forward, better playmaker, and is one clutch player.

VC is just more athletic.

Nets didn't make the playoffs, and the Magic made it to the Finals.
I call Hedo more efficient due to that.

If you think hedo is just as good as vc. Then believe that lol. Hedo turkoglu is not as good as VC. Vince carter is a top 5 sg. I dont even know if hedo is a top 5 sf.

Just trying to defend the fact everyone says he is overrated. When he really isn't...

Hedo was surrounded by 3 all stars. The nets were garbage you know that.
Now put Hedo in VC's spot. Hedo's efficiency rating probably goes up due to more PPG.

Hedo on the Nets means more shots more PPG, but a worse FG% and the same if not less assits therefore Hedo wouldn't even look as good as he does now.

Hedo is a product of stan van's system. When brian hill was there hedo wasnt considered as good. VC has always been better than hedo. Its not a contest.
