EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -New coach Avery Johnson thinks the New Jersey Nets’ free-agent pitches to LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh were right on target.
They were so good that the disappointment of a franchise-worst, 12-win season suddenly has been replaced with optimism.
The team that once lived and died with Dr. J. now believes it has a shot at LeBron, and D-Wade and Bosh.
At least that’s the impression given Friday, a day after the Nets opened their talks with ‘The King’ in Cleveland, then jetted to Chicago to make pitches to Wade and Bosh.
