Vince Carter is starting to look like his old self in December so far. He has played in 6 games (5 starts) so far this month and he has averaged 38.5 minutes, 24.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.8 assists so far in December. The Nets need him to stay healthy because they have problems scoring when he is not on the court.

Richard Jefferson has been the best player on the Nets by far this season as he’s playing the best ball of his career right now. Jefferson has played in 15 games so far this season and he has averaged 39.1 minutes, 25.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.1 steals per game. If Jefferson keeps up this pace the Nets are going to have a great season.

Vince Carter was outstanding in what could wind up being his swan song for the Nets.  In 82 games last season, Carter averaged 38.1 minutes, 25.2 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.0 steal per game.  He also shot the ball really well as he hit 45.4% from the floor, 35.7% from three-point range and 80.2% from the free throw line.  If this was indeed Vince Carter’s last season in New Jersey….he went out with a bang.

Vince Carter’s career has been outstanding to date.  In 621 career games, Carter has averaged 24.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.3 steals per game.  He also has shot well as he has hit 44.7% of his shots from the floor, 37.7% from three-point range and 79.2% from the free throw line.  Look for Carter to continue to put up big numbers for the Nets or whoever he plays for next season.

Josh Boone is finally healthy and he’s stepping up at the right time as the Nets are trying to secure a spot in the NBA Playoffs.  In his last 6 games, Boone is averaging 23.0 minutes, 10.8 points, 6.3 rebounds and 0.2 assists per game.  He’s also shooting an outstanding 60% from the floor in those games.

Bostjan Nachbar has really played well the last couple of weeks for the Nets.  In his last 6 games, Nachbar is averaging 20.8 minutes, 11.0 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game.  Nachbar has hit 50% from the floor and he’s hit 12 of his last 23 (52.2%) three-point shots.  He’s been a really big help to the Nets on their way to the playoffs.
