PRICKLE: NETS' OUTLOOK NOT AS RUDDY AS TYPICAL
Pick a topic, any topic. Now discuss.
That was what group boss Rod Thorn did yesterday in his annual pre-training stay State of a Nets Nation address. Thorn strike substantially each subject: From a Nets no longer being noticed as between a chosen of a Eastern Conference to a players' health; from Jason Collins regularly being a final male station during a starting 4 mark to watchful for Allan Houston to confirm if he'll accept a non-guaranteed deal.
Here's a sampling from Thorn as a Nets await a begin of stay Tuesday:
On a pass subject – Nenad Krstic's lapse from a ripped ACL: "How shortly is he starting to be ready to go? . . . we don't consider he's 100 percent. The doctors consider he has finished great, which he's right upon schedule, 90-to-95 percent. . . . We will guard him really closely during precision camp. Our idea is to get him ready for a initial game. Everybody understands we need to move him along gradually."
On a Celtics appropriation Kevin Garnett as well as Ray Allen: "Boston is really a group to kick in a Atlantic Division. we don't know about a conference, though in a Atlantic Division, they're a group to beat. They've combined dual big-time all-star players as well as a single of them is a seven-footer."
On rookie Sean Williams: "Athletically, he's a most appropriate contestant we have in a frontcourt, of a bigs. He's really inexperienced. How shortly is it starting to take him to get ready to play? There'll be an opportunity. But is he starting to be ready to do it or how shortly is he starting to be ready? we can't answer that."
On fluctuating a non-guaranteed suggest to Allan Houston: "From a viewpoint it's a man who's patently a extensive impression guy, good shooter. Will his legs reason up? we don't even know if he knows if they will or they won't."
On a Nets' standing in a East: "Probably for a final 3 years we've been a single of a dual or 3 teams . . . people would contend have a probability during a Eastern Conference. Now we're not deliberate that. There have been substantially 5 or 6 teams which people consider would be rated forward of us."
On Richard Jefferson traffic with offseason traffic rumors: "Never have we told a player, 'We would not traffic you.' . . . There's been rumors floating around about opposite players given [Richard has] been here. Richard is really savvy about things similar to which so we don't consider there's a residual effect. If Richard is healthy, he'll have a superb year for us."
On a probability of Nenad Krstic as well as Jamaal Magloire personification together: "That will be interesting. Defensively, how which will work out some-more so than offensively? Nenad can fire out upon a floor. But we don't know. we have to see."
On either Jason Collins (2.1 points per game) is a starting energy forward: "Until someone beats him out, yeah. You know he's starting to defend, he's starting to be as intelligent as any player out there. He's not starting to have mistakes, he's starting to fool around tough each game. Who's starting to do sufficient of those things to clear him not playing? You only can't give guys' spots away."
