New town for the Nets

WELCOME TO BROOKLYN
While the lock-out is still hurting the NBA, there are few things that can be done while everyone is busy resolving the issue. Nets welcome their new town, their new name and their new uniform with their part owner Jay-Z.

It's official! New Jersey Nets no more and welcome to your new Brooklyn Nets. The new arena of the Brooklyn Nets will be open by a concert of their part owner Jay-Z, and speaking of Jay-Z, he will also be the designer of their new uniform. They plan that it should look like more of an urban design to complement Brooklyn, that should look good.

BUT we will just see it if there is an NBA season this year.

27     Willy Wilson
47     Mark Caguioa
71     Ronald Tubid
RESERVED/INJURED LIST
30     Eric Menk

They still have the solid line-up with Mark "The Spark" Caguioa, Helterbrand, Tubid and Villanueva. They also have the young talents that can be ready for the re-building of the team, namely, Jimbo Aquino, John Wilson and JC Intal.

But Gin Kings really in-need of Big Men, especially now that Eric Menk is out and they lost Rudy Hatfield. They need to pick up an additional big guy that can fight position inside the paint.

3           James Martinez
4           Rudy Lingganay
8           Francis Allera
10         Sean Anthony
13         Marcio Lassiter
17         Rommel Adducul
18         Doug Kramer
20         Gary David
22         Joshua Vanlandingham
24         Ricky Calimag
34         Will Antonio
42         JV Casio
43         Alex Crisano


They had the No. 1 pick of the recent draft, JV Casio. Tigers are loaded of very young but reliable players. Casio, Lassiter, Martinez, Anthony and Vanlandingham, this sets of players are not just players that came out of nowhere. They have a very reputable record in International Tournament, College career and PBADL experience. They may be 'rookies' but I don't think so they will play like rookie.

I can say that this team is a well balance team with regards to talent and experience. Gary David, Celino Cruz, Ricky Calimag, Will Antonio and Rommel Adducul have the wisdom and experience that can complement the young talent of their new players.
