The nets are coming to town

The season is around the corner. Practice sessions started yesterday. I am so god damn excited. I haven’t been this excited in the past 6 years before a season began. Will they jell? We have a team written in stone for the time being barring injury. The attitude seems to be right. I m happy. We aren’t a great team but we are a good team. We have hope all the way till Mr. Kidd is on the team. The last year, we did not even have Jason Kidd to start with. He was pissed off, injured and disheartened. Things look a lot different right now. He is healthy, happy and still here. He is going to will this team into the playoffs. We have J Kidd, VC, RJ and Nenad who were looking good at the end of least season. I cannot wait for Nov 2nd when we face the bucks and Bogut, the no 1 pick in this year’s draft.
I was thinking about Jason today. Rarely does he show any emotions on the field. You might be lead to think that he doesn’t care a damn. He is so stoic that it is irritating sometimes. But man oh man, he is one of the best at what he does. He lets the game do the talking. All his flamboyance is shown on the court with his skill. He is one of those people who prefers to shut his trap and let his hands, legs and mind do the talking. Hopefully he takes us back to the sublime heights of the game, which we saw in the 2001-2002-2003 seasons. Last year, by the end of the season he was coming into his elements. Alas, it was too late. It will not be as late this time. He will not be out for half the season, will not have to wait for Vince to join him in December and will not have RJ watching by the sidelines. Now is the time as now has all the right ingredients. Do we have it in us to get a ring? I don’t know. Will we give up? No, never. Not until we have Jason Kidd leading his troops from the front. He is a warrior with unparalleled vision of the game and its nuances. I am excited. God damn excited.
