Exactly. The only thing I think he tried to copy is the Superman persona. Shaq went to LA for the money and fame, Dwight was traded to LA. The goofy personality is just him.

Well, before the playoffs started I stated the Nets COULD redeem themselves by going deep into the playoffs for being overpaid underachievers. I guess there's no redemption.

I don't think they have a shot at the Heat, but they did impress me without Derick Rose. I guess this roster DID win 60+ games two seasons ago with Rose, so they shouldn't be underestimated.

Different players. LeBron looks like he will be great for the next few years though.
