Nets Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
The two game winning streak is history. And so is the first
meeting with LeBron James and the Cavs. So the Nets seek to return to
their winning ways Friday night. They're in Toronto.
Well, there's always Saturday back at home against the Clippers.
The Nets (4-6) have shown they are capable. They beat Detroit.
They beat Atlanta twice. But they also showed they can disappoint.
They have collapsed in second halves, they've lost twice to Indiana,
lost at home to Golden State.
They are coming off their worst beating of the season, in terms of
margin, a 24-point drubbing by the Cavs in New Jersey Tuesday. So now
they have to try to regain the good feeling they held after
high-octane (234 combined points) wins over the Hawks.
