After five months of being locked out, players were finally allowed to enter team practice facilities on Thursday. But only one Net, showed up in East Rutherford. Johan Petro was the man, and after lifting weights for 30 minutes, he spoke with the media about his upgraded Chevy van, as well as former teammate Nene.

"Nene’s a strong big," Petro said. "That, I think, was a concern going through last year. I think everyone knew we were a little soft down in the post."

Petro also praised the passing ability of Nene, who he spent a season and a half with in Denver.
