Longtime Nets' season ticket holder and courtside regular Frank Capece is counselling disgraced NBA ref Tim Donaghy, according to a Florida newspaper. Capece, a Cranford labor and municipal lawyer, told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune that he spoke by phone with Donaghy Thursday. The two have known each other since a chance meeting at a restaurant several years ago. Capece had recognized Donaghy from watching him officiate Nets games at the Continental Airlines Arena.
