New Jersey Nets 83, Cleveland Cavaliers 72
The Nets dominated the first three quarters of this basketball game and then they held on for a victory despite only scoring 6 points in the 4th quarter! The Nets defense suffocated the Cavs the whole game as they held them to 33.3% shooting from the floor. Jason Kidd had a great game as he led the way for the Nets with 20 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocked shots. Richard Jefferson (15 points, 8 rebounds) and Mikki Moore (14 points, 6 rebounds) both did a good job around the basket on offense and defense for the Nets. Vince Carter had a solid game despite only scoring 12 points, as he grabbed 6 rebounds and dished out 10 assists. Bostjan Nachbar had a solid game off of the bench with 13 points and 3 rebounds. The Nets have stayed alive by winning last night, but they still trail the Cavs 3-2 in this series that returns to New Jersey tomorrow night.
