NEW YORK -- For a while there, I thought the Nets' latest farce would never end.
Not that Byron Scott's inescapable conclusion, or his eviction without so much as inhaling the scent of a contract offer past 2003-04, is dimly surprising.
Rod Thorn's self-defeating decision to feed Scott to Jason Kidd without the clout or a moat of an extension, alerted everybody that it was open season and Scott was fair game.
