February 11:Nets@Mavericks
A very promising game with two high scoring teams.But the score was far from hi,defence was the key in this game and Nets come out winners.Nets PF's Tyson Chandler and Nene stopped Dirk so Dallas turned to Terry who had 10 points by halftime:
But the Nets played great defence and let Dallas bench score just 10 points.Nets won 78-73.
Player of the game,Vince Carter shooting his last free throw of the game.
Box score:
No box score couse I played the game very late at night so when I finished the game,I saved the dynasty and fell asleep.In the mourning played the next game and the box scores were gone
Next game:February 13:Hornets@Nets
Nets started the game in the worst shooting fashion in the last two seasons,and were down at halftime by 6,defence was the reason why it wasn't a blowout.Carter kept Nets in the game with 14 points in the first half:
Coach Frank told the team at halftime that the way they played in the first half isn't going to get them another title and that he knows they can play better.Players got their morale up and it was as if another team came on the court,they were ready to play,third quarter each team finished with 19 points and than in the fourth Nets erupted for 32 points whle holding the Hornets to 16 points and won by 10 points.Three players most responsible for the good second half were Heinrich,Korver and Jacobsen who combined scored 7 threes in the second half.
Player of the game,Vince Carter dunking a 360 on the counterattack:
Play of the game:Richard Jefferson with the put back.He started from the three point area,ran into the paint and dunked the rebound in
Box score:
Next game:February 15:Pacers@Nets

February 15:Pacers@Nets
Marv said before the start of the game that a blowout was an option,he didn't mention that the Nets were going to be the ones getting blown away.Well that is what happened,Nets played a disaster of a game,I couldn't wait to end it,O'Neal once again proved to be a great defender and I was so pissed off when he blocked my 6 dunk try,I mean come on,Jerome James goes for the dunk and O'Neal blocks him,that really pissed me of,I felt like this:
So I had my 5 game winning streak ended
Box score:
February 16:Bobcats@Nets
The Bobcats came to play and the Nets responded in the fourth,but fell short by two points.The lead that Bobcats built in the first three quarters was to big.Jefferson,Carter and Hinrich were the only ones in double digits for the Nets.Damon Stoudamire scored 24 points,10 in the first half:
Play of the game:Nenad Krstic getting the frustration out of his system with a block:
Box score:
Next game:February 17:Rookie challange.

February 17:Rookie vs. Sophomore game
Nenad Krstic was in the sophmore starting lineup,and although he did pick up mvp and rookie of the year award last season,he was in the shadow of Emeka Okafor.Once again,he showed the world his place is in the NBA and in he starting line up of a championship winner,he scored 29 points,grabbed 11 rebs and had 3 blocks.He also dished out 2 assists.He was named Rookie challange MVP.Sophomores won 63-57.
Krstic with his award:
February 18:Slam dunk contest:
Vince Carter,LeBron James,T. Ariza and C. Butler were the contenders.Carter,James and Ariza scored 50 points in the first round,but in the second,James was the only one who repeated the same record and he won the Slam dunk champion award:
February 18:3 point shootout:
Players shooting for the award were:Vince Carter of New Jersey Nets,Morris Peterson of Toronto Raptors,Damon Jones of Miami Heat,Derek Anderson of Portland Trailblazers,Nick Van Exel of Portland Trailblazers,Jason Terry of Dallas Mavericks,tracy McGrady of Houston Rockets and Ras Lewis of Seattle Sonics.After the first round the ones left standing were Derek Anderson and Tracy McGrady.After the second round the winner was decided,it was Derek Anderson:
February 19:All-star game:
East won 61-59 with O'Neal picking up the MVP award.The game was full of great dunks so I didn't want to single any out.But something far more important happened behind the scenes.Vince Carter,Nenad Krstic and Jason Kidd meet and spoke about the trade.They all agreed that they didn't want the trade.Kidd really loved playing for the Nets and the rest of the team loved playing with him.Carter told Kidd that the ex-Bulls were having a hard time getting used to New Jersey.Hinrich who joined them later,said them that he was very happy in Chicago and that he would to like to return.They called their GM's and said that they want to be traded back.GM's at first didn't want to talk about it,but soon come to see that the trade wasn't a good thing for either team.They started to negotiate and finally came up with a deal:
Nets and Bulls backtrack,Kidd back with the Nets!!!!
In a first for the NBA Bulls traded Kidd back to the Nets,just 2 months after they sent Hinrich,Chandler and Davis to the Nets.The original trade fell hard to the hearts of the fans of both teams.The second trade was a result of the two teams stars Carter,Kidd and Hinrich which convinced the GM's to return them to their teams.GM's granted their wishes and made the trade,but only condition was that J.R. Bremer stays with the Bulls,couse he was responding well to the change.Rod Thorn finally accepted the proposition and Kidd was a Net again!
"It all seams sureal,man,it was like a bad dream,I mean no offence to the Bulls,but my place is here." said Jason Kidd.
"Now we are complete,we got Kidd back,lets try to forget this last couple of months.Lets play ball." told Carter to the press.
Nenad Krstic,the second year centar for the Nets,who flurished playing with Kidd,was thrilled with the news and said that he can't wait for Kidd's first alley-oop
"I am glad that I can play again along side Gordon and Deng again" told Hinrich.
Looks like comebacks are in fashion,with last years Walker return and now this Kidd drama.Nice to see that in this cold business there are still GM's that care!
Next game:February 21:Wizards@Nets:Don't miss it,Kidd is back!

February 21:Wizards@Nets
Jason Kidd is back with New Jersey Nets and the way he played this game,some would think he never left,the chemistry within the team is great,they had no problem winning the Wizards,although Juan Dixon scored most points in the game.But the way the Nets played was really beautiful.Jason Kidd ended the first half with 7 points,3 assists and 4 steals:
Carter scored most points for the Nets,24 and he didn't have to struggle,Kidd just made his job a whole lot easier and it showed:Carter was 50% from the field.But the player of the game was,well deserved, Jason Kidd,who ended the game with 15 points,5 steals and 5 assists.
The Nets finally played like a team.Wizards did put up a fight in the second half,even managed to take the lead halfway through the fourth,but that's when Kidd scored five points and dished one to Nene for the dunk and the Nets went up by 6,they managed to win by 8 points.
Box score:
Current roster:
Next game:February 22:Pistons@Nets

February 22:Pistons@Nets
A thriller!!Nets started with a 9-0 run in the first and were leading at the end of first,but the Pistons tightened the defence and managed to take the lead and contain the Nets to only 8 points in the second half;Carter was carring the Nets scoring 15 points in the first half:
Third quarter brought better game from the Nets,but at the end of the third,they were still trailing by 9 points.Nets played a perfect fourth quarter and managed to win the game 77-74.Kidd was named player of the game,he scored 13 points and had 8 steals nd an assist.Carter ended the game with 30 points and Jefferson added 17.
February 24:
The Nets claimed J.Pine off waivers 3 days after he got waived by the Cavaliers.Pine was Nets 1. round pick in 2005 and was traded along with 2. round pick to Cavaliers for DeJuan Toure,Cavs first round pick.
February 24:Raptors@Nets
Day after the transfer deadline,the Nets were playing against the Toronto Raptors at home.This game was a blowout,the Nets won by 23 points,103-80. Carter once again led the Nets in scoring,ended up with 20 points and was the player of the game..Jefferson added 17 and Nene ended up with 14.Carter started the game very aggresive and showed no mercy for his ex-teammates,scoring 18 points in the first half:
This win was a great team effort,everybody made it possible.The Nets are on a three game winning streak and are looking as a team that is more than capable of winning the title again.With the return of Jason Kidd,everithing fell into place and the Nets have great team chemistry.
RJ is playing very well since Jason Kidd's return and has lifted his scoring average by 5 points since the trade.

March 10:Nets@Kings
This was a highly expacted game because it was a clash of two top ranked teams in eastern and western conference.Everybody expected a close game,but after the first half,it looked like a blowout,Nets finished the first quarter with a 28-14 lead.Kings managed to bounce back,though and outscored the Nets 24-16 in the second,and were trailing only by 6 at the halftime.Nets managed to stop Peja at 4 points in the first half.Key player for the Nets was Nenad Krstic.Kings tried to take the lead in the second,but Nets didn't let that happen and won the game 97-92.Krstic was the player of the game with 17 points,9 rebs,2 blocks and an assist.Nets had 5 players in double digits.Sacramento had three players with over 20 points,but it wasn't enough for the win.
Play of the game:Williamson goes toward the basket,James leaves Skinner to block Williamson,who throws the lay-up to Skinner.
Box score:
Nets Kings
March 13:Spurs@Nets
Spurs did to Nets what Nets did to Kings 3 days ago,Spurs outscored the Nets in the first and cruised to victory.The Nets managed to comeback in the third,but Parker shifted into higher gear and helped Spurs regain the lead.Game ended 79-76 for the Spurs.Carter had one of the worst starts of the season,managed to score just 4 points in the first half.Parker scored most points of the game,25,but Duncan got the player of the game title.A very bad showing from the Nets.
Box score:
Spurs Nets
March 15:Bulls@Nets
A game between two teams that made history with this seasons Kidd trades.Kidd is back with the Nets and getting confortable again.Hinrich was inyured,so there wasn't going to be a contest between the two great pointguards.But Nene was ready to show the Nets asministration that he is their PF of the future and that the Bulls Nets trading fiasko that brought Chandler to the Nets was not neaded.Nene and Chandler were battling throughout the first half and were bothkey players at half.Nets managed to win 90-87 and Carter was named player of the game and had the play of the game,a windmill.
Box score:
Bulls Nets
March 17:Nets@Wizards
A very easy win for the Nets.They led troughout the first half.Kidd was in all over the court,playing great defence and scoring 7 points.Wizards started the third quarter strong and managed to outscore Nets subs and hold a 2 point lead before the fourth quarter,but then Krstic and Jefferson took to a higher level and helped the Nets to outscore the Wizards 31-16.Krstic was the player of the game.
Box score:
Nets Wizards
March 19:Nets@Hornets
A blowout,as simple as that,this was the easiest win of the season for the Nets.Nets outscored the Hornets in the first quarter by 22 points,the quarter ended 27-5 for the Nets,recorded a 14-0 run,the defence was rock solid.Nets cruised to victory in a game that New Orleans will try to forget as soon as possible.Nene was the player of the game with 13 points,10 rebs and 4 blocks.Kidd was once again brilliant in defence,getting 6 steals.
Play of the game,Carter with the ball,calls the isolation,gets doubled,passes to Kidd,who spots Jefferson on the drive to the basket,passes the ball behind Hornets centers to Jefferson who dunks with both hands.
Box score:
Nets Hornets
Next game:March 21:Nets@Raptors

March 21:Nets@Raptors
Vince Carter was once bood all game long and this time it must have affected him,cause he finished the game with 9 points,he shoot 4-15 from the field,a disaster.Nets got beat pretty bad in this game,final score:79-59.Here is Nene slaming the ball to the hoop to let the frustration out:
Box score:
Nets Raptors
March 23:Kings@Nets
Nets come home from a terrible gefeat from the Raps and looked to bounce back and so they did,handing the Kings their second loss against the Nets this month.But the win wasn't easy,Kings led in the first half,but after the half time break,Nets managed to stage a comeback and won 92-82.The final score might seem like an easy win,but the teams were leveled until the final 2 minutes of the game in which the Nets went on a 12-2 run.Player of the game was Richard Jefferson with 19 points,4 rebs and 5 assists.
Box score:
Forgot to take the bloody box scores,second time this happened
