The Nets, stuck in their longest losing streak with Jason Kidd on the floor, travel to Boston Wednesday in a game that will decide who leads the lowly Atlantic Division. The Celtics are a half-game ahead of the Nets in the Division at 5-8, only 3-5 at home. The Celtics young roster is buoyed by Paul Pierce who is averaging 27.2 ppg and Wally Szczerbiak at 19.8. Boston has been off since beating Milwaukee on Saturday. The Nets are playing their third game in four days, their fourth in six days.
