Day 37 of 170: Where The Nets Go 0-18

Posted by Patrick on December 3rd, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, NBA Teams, New Jersey Nets

Line of the Night: Jason Kidd (1.38). No, we’re not just recycling Day 35 from Tuesday. The ageless Kidd notches his second line of the night in three days with 16 points, 10 assists, 8 rebounds and 5 steals in a win over the officially historically inept 0-18 New Jersey Nets. The Mavs shot 80% [...]

Picking Up the Pieces: The New Jersey Nets

Posted by Patrick on October 4th, 2009 filed in Author: Patrick, Fantasy Basketball, New Jersey Nets

This is part three of the mini-series that’s focusing on teams that were hit hard by the “Four Horsemen” (Injury, Salary Cap, Rebuilding, Bad Contracts) over the off-season.

Day 150 of 170: Jason Kidd is not retiring

Posted by Nels on March 28th, 2008 filed in Author: Nels, Fantasy Basketball, NBA Cheerleaders, New Jersey Nets

Line of the Night: Jason Kidd (6.42) pulled out the first 6+ I’ve seen in a while. Or at least that I remember seeing. And reality and what I remember can be two vastly different things. Kidd had 19 points on 6/11, 4/5 and 3 threes. He also has 15 assists, 4 rebounds (no triple-double??), [...]

Go West, Old Man: Jason Kidd heading back to Dallas

Posted by Nels on February 13th, 2008 filed in Author: Nels, Dallas Mavericks, Fantasy Basketball, New Jersey Nets, Trades

The Exodus from The East continues… CBS Sportsline has a recap of the trade that is sending Kidd to the Mavs for Devin Harris. They also have some fantasy analysis, from which I plan to borrow liberally…
Don’t expect Kidd’s Fantasy value to change significantly in Dallas. He is still worth starting as a No. [...]

Attending a Boston Celtics Game Pre Kevin Garnett

Posted by Patrick on September 16th, 2007 filed in Author: Patrick, Boston Celtics, NBA Basketball, NBA Teams, New Jersey Nets

With Ray Allen and KG joining the Celtics this season, tickets to home games will no doubt be impossible or very expensive to get. I felt it important to document the pre Allen/KG game attending experience, so we can see how much things are about to change.
Or, in other words, I had these pictures sitting [...]
