Nets Are Scorching

haha true true

Look at the Yankees they have been trying every year since 2000 to win a championship they brought in every star player but never won. Why did they win last year? Chemistry.

I love this articel. Chemistry is so important. We have talent. No one can deny that. But w do not need a superstar to make the playoffs. The 04 detroit pistons proved that. Not one player on that team averaged over 20 points. But they did have talent and they played with great chemistry. Milwakee, charlotte, atlanta, and orlando all made the playoffs last year not having anyone averaging 25 ppg. We can do good this year with good chemistry...

I like our team. Lets play team ball, not superstar + rest of team, ball. I believe team chemistry is important. Others say it's overrated, that winning is what develops good team chemistry. I think it's like that old debate, what came first, the chicken or the egg? The Nets have talented young players, and if four or five emerge we should have a good team. I would rather have 5 very good players, playing team ball, then one superstar and 4 "role" players.

Mark,

could we really say that Durant was a star until this past season?? Yeah he was putting up big numbers, but he didn't really emerge until this past season. He needed the proper team chemistry and surrounding pieces for him to really emerge.

Maybe Brook has it in him to really establish himself as a dominant star center. With the new pieces the Nets got to give him the room to have the chance to be dominant maybe we do have a star on our hands.

Then again, maybe its a long shot. Nonetheless, I do like the pieces we have in place now. I think we're in good shape to really establish some team chemistry.

I've said this before and I'll say it again. For the first time in a long time I feel like this Nets team has been built with a clear vision. With the versatility of this team, I feel like players will be able to play to their individual strengths. It seems as if we have some nice complimentary pieces whereas before we just had a whole bunch of pieces that didnt fit on many of our Nets teams in the past 3-4 years.

I hope we can really impress this year with Avery's defensive system and hopefully the offense of this summer's acquisitions so that by Free Agency time we cant help but be a prime destination for free agents.

The Nets will be traveling too China this year. They will start camp befpremost teams also. Don't forget the N?ts will travel to London. These are perfect opportunities for the team to get to know each other and develop chemistry.
