New Jersey Nets fall to Washington Wizards, 107-96
Newark Star-Ledger
by Colin Stephenson
In their first game after not trading their star, Vince Carter, the New Jersey Nets reaffirmed their commitment to winning by getting pasted at home by the worst team in the Eastern Conference.
The day after the trade deadline, their team still intact, the Nets talked Friday morning about ratcheting up their effort, of pushing hard to find a way to squeeze into the playoffs.
And what did they do Friday night, in the opening game of a four-game homestand at Izod Center, against the woeful Washington Wizards?
They got squeezed, 107-96.
