07/15/2010 -

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -On the job as the New Jersey Nets' general manager less than a day, Billy King already is deep into the hunt for a power forward.

King has spoken to outgoing general manager Rod Thorn, new coach Avery Johnson and more than a couple of agents looking to secure a job for one of their clients.

The 44-year-old King is more than ready to listen, he's just in no hurry. It's one of the lessons he learned in his 10-year stint as president and general manager of the Philadelphia 76ers, and that patience is something that he is bringing to his new job.

King was introduced as Nets GM on Thursday, saying his goal is to win a title with the NBA's worst team a year ago.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
