Nets and Spurs approach this game from different perspectives. The Nets have won three straight and are trying to make it to .500 by the All-Star Break. But Jason Kidd may be out with a bad back. The Spurs have lost two straight to Orlando and Miami and are just trying to end a brutal East Coast road trip. The Spurs' problem has been defense, giving up more than 100 points and 52% shooting in those two losses. The Nets on the other hand have held their last three opponents to 80.3 ppg.
