Boki Nachbar scored 35 points, including the game-winning free throws with 8.8 seconds to go to lead the Nets to a one-point, overtime victory in Philadelphia Friday night, opening the preseason. The Nets led by as many as 20 points midway through the third quarter and gave up just 47 points through the first 36 minutes, but the Philly offense, led by Louis Williams, got going in the fourth. They led by three late, but Nachbar scored four points in the final 13 seconds and his dunk with 4.3 on the clock sent the game to OT. Josh Boone recorded a double-double with 13 points and 11 boards and Antoine Wright finished with 17 points, but shot just 5-for-15 from the floor.
