The New Jersey Nets right now have a OK team not a good team nor a bad team. But a team that can compete every night. This is because of the player that the Nets had aquired during the trade season. His Name is Deron Williams. He changed the Nets playing style from that day on.Deron Williams is a point guard and in order for him to be succesful he needs to have players to support him. These players havent been provided yet but i beleive this offseason that can be achieved.
The best fit for the nets i beleive is not Dwight Howard it is someone else that would fit the nets.This player is Josh Smith. If the Nets had Josh Smith he would be great for Deron be a rebound machine and coexist with brook. Dwight would fill 2 of those reasons. Listen to the Nets Team with Josh Smith.
PG: Deron Williams
SG:Anthony Marrow
SF:Travis OutlawPF: Josh Smith
C: Brook Lopez
6th Man: Kris Humphries
Bench:
Damion James
Johan Petro
Sasha Vujacic
Ben Uzoh
Jordan Farmar
and the players that they get during the draft and the offseason
This Nets Team could easily be a championship team.

Anthony Morrow and Travis Outlaw (and for that matter, Josh Smith) are not starters on a championship team. Deron Williams is no Jason Kidd. And even so, Jason Kidd had some quality players around him. Kenyon Martin had twice the talent of Josh Smith, and he played DEFENSE. Richard Jefferson had chemistry with Kidd like no one could imagine, plus he had a great penetration game (like no one in the above lineup). Keith Van Horn was a 6'11 version of Anthony Morrow. Great shooter, not much more. But that goes along with the next point. The Kidd Nets had HEIGHT. They carried multiple 7-footers (Jason Collin, Dkembe Mutombo, Aaron Williams, even Nenad Kristic). Not the most talented players, but they stood on the block all day with their hands up on defense, and they were always threats for offensive rebounds and putbacks. As a defender, you could never stray from them. This kept the outside open. And even with all that, they STILL could not win a championship. A team with 3 below average starters and a non-existent bench will not win anything. Deron WIlliams<Jason Kidd. The rest of the team<<<Kidd's supporting cast. No defense, no offense, no anything. The absolute best the above lineup does is secure an 8 seed and get swept.
Josh Smith tell me one team that he would not start on and also morrow is a shooter and every team needs a shooter and outlaw is just athletic and raw and he will be a backup halfway to Damion James also Humph is a beast
Please explain to me why Outlaw was THE WORST starting SF in the league last year. With that horrible contract,
and I can list plenty of teams that Josh Smith would not start on:
Lakers
Clippers
Knicks
Celtics
76ers
Bulls
Cavaliers
Pistons
Pacers
Bucks
Heat
Mavericks
Grizzliers
Hornets
Spurs
Nuggets
Timberwolves
Trailblazers
Thunder
Warriors
Kings
and I was being generous....
Refute my points perhaps?

Lakers he would start over Artest/odom
Clippers he cld play pf and blake wld go to center
KNicks same ther
Celtics GAret too old
76ers yes
BULls boozer who
Cavs aahah no one
Pistons he is better then jeberko

mavs same ther
grizz gasol is a center
honerts defintley hell start
spurs Duncan plays center somethimes
Blazers Aldrige is sF
THunder he would statrt
Warrios same ther and same with the kings
2 teams
actuall 1
Lakers: Pau/Bynum, nice try
Clippers: Blake Griffin, Chris Kaman. They are not sacrificing Griffin's offense by moving him to Center.
Knicks: Knicks are not sacrificing Amare's offense by moving him to Center.
Celtics: You are insane if you think Josh Smith>Kevin Garnett
76ers: They have Elton Brand
Bulls: Boozer and Noah
Cavs: Hickson? Heard of him? and also Varejao
Pistons: Monroe and Maxiell

Hornets: Carl Landry and Okafor
Spurs: Duncan and Blair
Blazers: Aldrige and Oden
THunder: Perkins and Collison
Warriors: David Lee and Ekpe Udoh
Kings: Cousins and Dalembert
granger is a SF and ryan wht ur saying makes no sense
what doesn't make sense?
all ur nonsense
Ryan, you made absolutely no sense. Josh Smith has potential all star talent. He is also MUCH better than players you listed (Elton Brand, Landry, Hickson, etc.)
First off, Josh Smith is not a free agent so the Nets would have to trade for him. Secondly, Sasha, Uzoh, and Humphries are free agents. The nets will probably try to resign Humphries but not Sasha or Uzoh. And if the Nets resign Humprhies there is no point of Smith because Humphries is a good PF. The nets should try to sign a good SG or/and SF this offseason because those are there weakest positions. They could then see who's available at the trade deadline and make a run at Danny Granger if he's available.
PG: Williams
SG: Thaddaeus Young/Jr smith/Marcus Thorton
SF: Granger
PF: Humphries
C: Lopez
There is no need to upgrade on positions that they are good at like PF. It would be more important to upgrade at SG and SF were they are weak at.
Agreed, Dwyer. Harrison, you are better than this.
Whatever you say. I think of Josh Smith as a 2002 Kenyon Martin type. With less rebounding skill (the stats back this up).
Regardless, my original point was that the lineup from the article would barely sniff a playoff spot, let alone "easily win a championship."
the nets should trade for smith that is what i am saying
out of curiosity, how did the nets convince the hawks to trade smith for absolutely nothing?
also, ryan, some of those players that you listed (varejao, gooden, maxiell, udoh, danny granger who is a SF, many more) are much much much worse than Josh Smith. I get that he's no LeBron but he's a pretty good player who would help a lot of teams
