Nets (2-7) face K-Mart for the first time since trade
Though Kenyon Martin misses his old teamates, he doesn't hold a grudge against Nets GM Rod Thorn. Martin had his leftover teammates over for a pre-Thanksgving meal, the day before the much anticipated game where the Denver forward will be starting against the Ratner-era Nets.

Nets are no longer swamping teams: Amid departures and lame-duck status, fewer fans buy tickets
The Bergen Record
K-Mart remains a Net at heart
"Martin blames Nets' principal owner Bruce Ratner - and a group of investors who are no longer on board - for breaking up the Nets. This decision has had a trickle-down effect. Martin's departure has led to Kidd and Mourning wanting out of New Jersey. The Nets' bad play has led to Martin chants at Continental Arena."
