It’s 2002 all over again. The Nets and Pacers are playing each other in the first round, New Jersey has just been upset in Game 1 and Ian Eagle and Bill Raftery are calling the game. For the Nets, they have to hope that just like 2002, they come back in Game 2. Otherwise, they’re headed to Indiana down 2-0 with two out of three at Conseco. A lot of attention will be paid to Vince Carter and the Nets’ perimeter defense, both of which proved disappointing Sunday.
