Thaddeus Young: The Nets "a perfect situation"

In an interview with Moke Hamilton of SNY, Thaddeus Young describes his feelings when he learned he had been traded from the rebuilding Timberwolves to the Nets.

"I was very, very happy," Young told Hamilton. "[I] went from a team that was rebuilding and restructuring and not going to the playoffs to one that could potentially make the playoffs, so I thought that was a perfect situation."

Saturday, it sure looked that way.  After two mediocre performances --for which he apologized-- Young broke out in Game 3, scoring 18 points, grabbing 11 rebounds, handing out three assists, and helping hold Kyle Korver to two points.
