The Nets made about a dozen inquiries, but no offers, Wednesday as free agent season opened. With 15 guaranteed contracts and no desire to add salary, Rod Thorn wants to try for a sign-and-trade first, rather than a straight signing, writes Dave D'Alessandro. Among the players who interest the Nets: Linas Kleiza, Matt Barnes, Chris Wilcox, Drew Gooden, Channing Frye and Hakim Warrick.
