Beware The Bite
News of the day (and of the weird, frankly):
Jason Kidd has not one but two bruised thighs. He got nailed by Luol Deng in the opener when they collided (could that explain the horrific performance agains the Raptors?) and then got nailed by Sam Dalembert against the Sixers.
What the Nets don't need is a banged up captain.
Also, we found out that Vince Carter's thumb has been bothering him since it was hit on opening night. That would explain the bad shooting and horrible numbers, plus the timidity. Forcing him to become a passer does wonders for the opposition.
Beware the bite of the injury bug, because even with depth, without two of the three stars, the Nets could find themselves middle of the pack at best.
Some random musings - when will Boki show the form of the preseason? If anyone needs a breakout game, it's Boki.
Is Antoine Wright for real? He's been out there at the end of games, which has been working out thus far. Can he continue the roll, and play over his head in the quest for a new contract?
Why has Josh Boone been the one (mostly) on the end of the forward rotation? Seems like Lawrence Frank is determined to make the Jamaal Magloire thing work, at almost any cost.
Can the rotation possibly stay at 10 or 11? That seems alien to L. Frank's thinking.
Will Jason Collins score a point this season? He's now 0 for his last 10 - games, that is, including last season.
See you all tomorrow night at the Izod Center.
