The Nets would like you to remember their strong finishes--10-3 last season, 17-5 in 2005-06, 15-4 in '04-05--and forget their dismal starts--11-18 last season, 9-12 in 2005-06 and 12-24 in '04-05. Getting better at beginnings is something the team is thinking about with training camp hours away. It's among a lot of concerns, including making do without Marcus Williams, hoping Nenad Krstic recovers fast, and pushing the bench to improve.
