The fans didn't show up, but the Nets finally did.

No fans in the arena, no fight from the listless Nets.

The Nets visit a young Pistons team that took them to double overtime in the Barclay's center in December.

Like political writers who hope you forgot who they predicted would win, pundits are coming around on Brook Lopez. David Thorpe writes of Lopez's remarkable journey from a player dissed by everyone within a 50-mile radius of Orlando to All-Star.

The Nets wished a happy birthday (28) to Kris Humphries Wednesday. Will they be bidding him goodbye next? Hints that the Nets are willing to move him have been cropping up the last few days with Fred Kerber says Nets are "confident" he can be moved.

It wasn't pretty, but it was popular. The YES Network’s Lakers-Nets telecast Tuesday was the most-viewed and highest-rated regular season Nets telecast ever on YES, averaging 299,000 total viewers and a 3.08 TV Household rating in New York market.

P.J. Carlesimo thinks that Mirza Teletovic might work out at small forward, apparently looking to please those who'd like to see him get more minutes on the court. Teletovic is willing to try it, but notes "I’m 6-9 and I’m 250 pounds. I’m a big guy."

The Nets need a win, badly. They haven't played a dominant game against a team with a healthy roster since they beat the Knicks eight games and four losses ago. The Pistons have lost two in a row and six of the last eight, but you never know.
