Thorn mulls next Net move

DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER
The most disappointing team by far in the Atlantic Division takes the court
tonight for the first time in 2007, hoping that it will not be not a
continuation of the last two months of 2006.
But Nets president Rod Thorn freely admits that he doesn't know if his
underachieving 13-18 club - already with nine losses in games they led with
six minutes left - is finally going to get its act together starting tonight
against Chicago.
Thorn traded for backup swingman Bernard Robinson on Wednesday. But that
could be only the first deal for the Nets before the Feb.22 trading deadline.
According to one Western Conference executive, "The Nets are trying to do
everything they can" to make a move that will jumpstart their season." The
executive said that they would even deal Jason Kidd if the right trade came
along, although his age and contract make him difficult to move. Vince Carter
has the most appeal, although he can opt out of his contract after this
season. Carter's name has been linked to the Clippers, who are trying to move
Corey Maggette and Cuttino Mobley. But the Nets don't see them as a
sufficient upgrade.
"What normally transpires between Jan. 15 and the trading deadline is that a
lot of teams figure out, 'We're not what we thought we were,'" Thorn said.
"But this year, it's taken teams longer because everybody in the Eastern
Conference - and I'm even including Philadelphia - has a chance, particularly
in our division."

IN AND OUT: F/C Clifford Robinson is expected back tonight from a knee
injury, but the Nets likely will be without C Jason Collins tonight and
tomorrow in Cleveland due to a strained lower back.

下一波交易好像要在交易大限前出現了 carter kidd jefferson
的名字都有可能在名單上
vc雖然情感上捨不得 但是還是希望交易到一些實質上的球員來幫助籃網薄弱的前場
