Vince Carter and Eddie House are not likely to play Friday when the Nets travel to Madison Square Garden to help the Knicks open the Isiah Thomas era. Carter (ribs) and House (knee) are still resting up...and House is going to seek a second opinion on why the soreness isn't responding to treatment. An MRI proved negative. The two injuries should mean plenty of more playing time for Antoine Wright, who is drawing praise from his coach and teammates. The game will be broadcast on MSG.
