Both are still game time decisions, but...Jason Collins who the Nets thought might not play at all on this road trip and Vince Carter who the Nets thought might not play Wednesday night could both be on the court tonight. Collins returned to his alma mater, Stanford, Wednesday morning, took a needle and received what he called "instant relief" from the pain that he has experienced since preseason. Carter says the pain in his back has lessened considerably with two days of rest.
