The Nets had won both preseason games against the Heat handily but they didn't count. Last night's did and it counted against the Nets' record of having lost to Miami 13 straight times.
As Kevin Garnett said, what's past is past, that the Nets are trying to build a "new creed, a new culture." Or as Paul Pierce said, "it's good we got a chance to taste this kind of atmosphere early in the year."
All in all, as Tom Lorenzo told Dex Henry, this game was a nice glimpse into what this team can do.
