On the bright side, in the Eastern Conference playoff race, the Bucks lost sharpshooter Michael Redd for the remainder of the season. Redd is Milwaukee's best player, a left-handed shooter who is a sniper from beyond the arc, and is very difficult to contest do to the cock-back release of his jumper. Richard Jefferson and Charlie Villanueva will be asked to pick up the scoring slack for the Bucks. Expect increased production from Luke Ridnour, Ramon Sessions, and Charlie Bell, too.

yson Chandler, and Hilton Armstrong in that particular contest; a missed opportunity, no doubt, for Lawrence Frank's boys.

Keyon Dooling and Jarvis Hayes have been superb off the bench for head coach Lawrence Frank, but they'll need more help if we're talking championship.
What the Nets need, is a proven frontcourt star. Preferably a big man that can score comfortably, rebound, and defend the paint with confidence. But in today's NBA, that's asking a lot. Right now the best option may be Marcus Camby of the Los Angeles Clippers, though I'm not sure that he would elevate New Jersey into the league of Boston, Los Angeles, and Cleveland. He most likely wouldn't; the Nets would need a big man like Dwight Howard, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett or Yao Ming -- all of whom are clearly unavailable.
