A NetsDaily Screed: D-Will & the Nets

[Yankees2772]

The league has no more true centers anymore, rather there are very few. If the Magic decide they can't re-sign Dwight and decide to trade him, I doubt they trade him within the east.

I don't. They are going to try to get the best offer from any team. Because even if he gets traded to the West, what if he refuses to sign an extension and leaves during the offseason? They can't really control where he will resign but they can control what they get in return for him.

It's not like Deron and Dwight ever said that they want to play together. It would be more like the 'equivalent' of Carmelo going to the Knicks.

No, because the New York Knicks are actually a revelant team, and aren't second fiddle in their own area. Why play for the Knicks JV squad?

This is ignorance at its finest.

This is the second year in the past 11 that the Knicks have put out a better product than us.

With Isiah likely back in the office and Donnie Walsh (the only reason the Knicks are relevant again) likely on his way out, makes your post look like the baseless drivel it is.

By the way, if we're the "JV squad", how embarrassing is it for the "varsity" to get swept in the playoffs in their last post-season appearance by the JV team?

It begs the question though, when was the last season when the Nets were truly relevant?

When was the last time the Hornets were relevant? After the entire Gulf of Mexico came in back in 05?

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Which team is more relevant all-time "DWill"? The Nets got Jason Kidd and had some success in the early 2000s while the Knicks were down. If you honestly think the Nets are better historically than the Knicks, or that the Nets are more relevant in the NY/NJ area, you are even more of a moron than I thought.

Is this topic about the relevance of either team?

I didn't think so.

The Nets bashing on this forum is hilarious.

Lol, the Hornets are in New Orleans, the Nets are in Jersey. Completely different markets, and the fact that the Nets can't be relevant in a market as big as Jersey speaks values to how bad the franchise is.

lmfao please. Name any team that told their fans that they were moving to a different city and still had fans come to their games. Go.

I pray your not talking about the Nets. I really do.

Dead last in fans per game, and nearly 400 less than the second to last place team at that.

So actually, I'd like for you to name me a team?

You retard :headsmack:
I'm saying that every team in the history of the NBA who told their fans they were moving to another city had their attendance decrease drastically.

The Nets first announced the move to Brooklyn in 05, why didn't drop then? Maybe it's just because the Nets aren't putting a product on the court that attracts fans anymore? If the Nets were winning games, the fans would show up.

I guess I could ask myself, why did fans bother attending Hornets games in New Orleans when most thought it was a guarantee they were never leaving OKC? Maybe it's because people wanted to see guys like Chris Paul, David West, Tyson Chandler, Peja?

In 2005 everything was a only a plan. Nothing was certain. There were a bunch of lawsuits and shit so the chance of them staying was still here. When it was confirmed in 2010 you can easily see the attendance drop a shit load.
At this point you couldn't pay half of Nets fans to go to the games. The fucking tickets go for under a damn dollar on some days.

I assume we can both agree on that Deron's first home game should be interesting, attendance wise.

I'm going to miss the game I have class at 7:10

But yeah this game won't be sold out. Even if we do pack it the hype will die down in a week.

BTW, tickets are going for $3 lmao

You're the one who brought up Dwight Howard signing with the Nets, and said it was the equivalent to Melo going to the Knicks. COMPLETELY different though. Would you rather play for the Knicks or the Nets?

If one team has Deron Williams and is moving into the first billion dollar arena, I'm going to the Nets considering the other already has two scorers.
