Does anyone think the Nets can contend for first next year with Boston, Toronto, and Philadelphia?

This division has gotten better this year and it will be exciting to see who wins it next year. I know Boston has the big three and the sixers are surging, but look at the team the nets have. Last night, they scored 42 points in the 1st quarter!! Harris, Carter, Jefferson, and Boone all had 20 points or more each and harris had 15 ists. I think the Nets have found their point guard in Harris and PF in Boone for the next 10-15 years. Even though they have gone through many turmoils this year as a team, I think they will be very dangerous next year (watch out Boston). I am happy to see that they went younger with Harris and Boone and let go of Kidd, who is getting old and has served his duties enough on this Nets team. The nets also have young marcus Williams off the bench who can back up harris when he needs a rest. Also, Nachbar can come off the bench and shoot the 3pt shot at any time. S. Williams and Diop are shot blockers who provide defense that few of the starters lack.
