If there was any doubt that Andray Blatche would eventually sign with the Nets, he dispelled them on Twitter Tuesday by posting a picture of him and his mother on 42nd Street, all dressed in black and white and wearing a Nets cap.

Blatche is expected to sign a non-guaranteed, one year deal later this week, perhaps as early as Wednesday. He was amnestied by the Wizards in July after seven years, filled with promising play but more often embarrassing moments. The 6'11", 26-year-old Syracuse native worked out with Avery Johnson two weeks ago, after which the Nets offered him what is essentially a camp invite.
