2000–01 New Jersey Nets season

The 2000–01 New Jersey Nets season was the Nets' 34th season in the National Basketball Association, and 25th season in East Rutherford, New Jersey.[1] The Nets won the Draft Lottery and selected Kenyon Martin with the first overall pick in the 2000 NBA draft, while signing free agent Aaron Williams during the offseason. Under new head coach Byron Scott, the Nets got off to a 6–4 start, but then lost nine consecutive games while losing 17 of their next 20 games. Injuries limited Keith Van Horn to 49 games, and Kendall Gill to 31 games, while Kerry Kittles missed the entire season with a knee injury. The Nets lost their final six games finishing sixth in the Atlantic Division with a 26–56 record. Despite their struggles, Stephon Marbury averaged 23.9 points per game and was selected for the 2001 NBA All-Star Game. Following the season, he was traded along with Johnny Newman to the Phoenix Suns for their superstar Jason Kidd, Gill signed with the Miami Heat, rookie Stephen Jackson signed with the San Antonio Spurs and Sherman Douglas retired.

gollark: Also, I have no idea what an "objective → semantic buffer" is and I think you're underestimating the difficulty of implementing whatever it is.
gollark: I can't actually source this, having checked *at least* two internet things.
gollark: In any case, I am not a linguist, but I think it's technically possible to produce an AST from English, or something like that, but really impractical. There is no regular grammar, words can't be cleanly mapped to concepts because they carry connotations pulled in from common discourse and the context surrounding them, many of them mean multiple things, you have to be able to resolve pronouns and references to past text, etc.
gollark: I am not aware of there being 22 base units of words or whatever.
gollark: What?
