ESPN just spent 30 minutes talking about who will start for a jets team that can't make the playoffs and just glossed over the fact that avery was fired.

quote: Oh yeah that's fair. I have no idea why people think Wallace is still good. He's an good defender, but has no ability to shoot.
We'll see. I think they're better than they've played. Maybe Deron will be freed and feel more comfortable in the offense again.
Wallace is still a good player... just not as good as he was. He's also never been known to be a good shooter... that's not something that has recently changed.
Deron has stated a few weeks back that there's too much iso plays in there offense... he's had plenty of freedom to operate. If anything, he needs more structure... like how it was in Utah.
The Nets have a good team... they just need some chemistry and a good coach.

D-will is a fricking bitch...Rose is right. All the guy does is complain. Could have gone anywhere in the world he wanted and went to the nets and in less than 3 months is bitching about the coaching system. Do these guys not research? Does who is coaching not matter because they know if they just start bitching they can get him fired?
