KG OUT; Kirilenko GTD; Collins will be signed for the rest of the season

Jason Kidd released a lot of information in regards to the Nets roster. First, he confirmed David Aldridge's report that Jason Collins would be signed for the remainder of the season.

It's not official but Jason Kidd confirmed #Nets will sign Jason Collins for the rest of the season when his 10-day contract expires. — Rod Boone (@rodboone) March 14, 2014

Collins has played less than 10 minutes per game over the past couple of weeks and could help the Nets in terms of depth.

Andrei Kirilenko remains a game-time decision for tomorrow's game against the Wizards with a sprained ankle. He said he needs to warmup tomorrow and see how it feels.

Andrei Kirilenko isn't sure if he'll be able to play vs. #Wizards tomorrow. Said he'd have a better idea after practice here in Miami today.

What was reported in the week was confirmed by Jason Kidd; Kevin Garnett will sit tomorrow's game. Kidd didn't rule out KG for Monday's game, though.

Kevin Garnett remains out vs. #Wizards. Kidd sounded hopeful he may play vs. #Suns on Monday. Likely no back to backs when he returns.

This will be Garnett's eighth straight game missed due to his back injury. The Nets have been 6-1 during this stretch of games.

Meanwhile, with all the hoopla about Phil Jackson joining the Knicks, Paul Pierce declined comment, in a very firm way.

Asked Paul Pierce for his reaction to Phil Jax joining the Knicks: "I don't talk about the Knicks. No Knicks questions. Ever."

And in other Collins brothers' news, Frank Isola reports that Jarron, Jason's brother, will join a local college program as a coach.

Jarron Collins, twin brother of Nets froward Jason Collins, is expected to join Eddie Jordan's staff at Rutgers, according to an NBA source.
