On March 31, after the Nets upset victory over the Spurs, the team has achieved 10 wins, thus avoiding a draw in the 1972-73 season and the creation of 76 single-season record of 9 wins 73 of the negative stigma. The Nets players do not wish to stop, they set a new goal beyond the Timberwolves record.
Minnesota has two wins over the Nets this season, but the team almost as bad. Minnesota is currently only 14 wins, and has recently suffered 16 straight games. Timberwolves schedule also negative, although their last eight opponents, only four playoff teams, but the opponents are the Lakers, Spurs, Heat, and Thunder, Wolverhampton Wanderers almost no chance of success for these teams. The four weak opponents is not a good deal, there are Kings, Warriors, Hornets and Pistons, and only the eastern part of the piston You Yipin. If according to the normal play, the Wolves can achieve 1-2 win we should thankful.
The Nets shot entirely after a surge of pressure from the worst record may be relaxed. The last eight games have four playoff teams, but the strength has clearly inferior Minnesota, namely the sun, Milwaukee, Charlotte and Miami. The four non-playoff team is the Hornets, Wizards, Bulls and Pacers, Timberwolves schedule difficulty of significantly less than that.
Of course, in only eight games last season chasing the case of four wins is still very difficult. Suppose Nets success, to the end of the first 29 this season, what will happen? Minnesota, picking up a champion to sign? The Nets only able to get into third or fourth? While the final champion will not necessarily receive a sign, but the theoretical probability is the greatest. The Nets in the rotten 9 / 10 season we going to give up such an attractive piece of meat? At least the players are willing to, because they have a sense of honor.

Nets Get 10th Win, Avoid Share of NBA's Worst Mark
The New Jersey Nets notched their 10th victory Monday night, avoiding any chance of tying for the worst record in NBA history by beating the short-handed San Antonio Spurs 90-84.
Brook Lopez had 22 points and 12 rebounds for the Nets, who grabbed control with a 15-4 run late in the fourth quarter to improve to 10-64. The 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers, who went 9-73, will remain in the record books as the league's worst team.
Public address announcer Gary Sussman shouted ''We got 10! The Nets win!'' after New Jersey snapped a 14-game losing streak in the series, committing a franchise record-low four turnovers in beating San Antonio for the first time since the 2003 NBA finals.
With Manu Ginobili (lower back spasms) joining Tony Parker on the injured list and Tim Duncan struggling through a poor shooting game, the Spurs had few answers on the second night of a back-to-back following an impressive victory at Boston on Sunday.
George Hill scored 19 points and former Net Richard Jefferson finished with 16 after a strong start for the Spurs, who fell out of a sixth-place tie in the Western Conference with Oklahoma City and Portland. New Jersey has been in danger of the worst record ever since opening the season with an NBA-record, 18-game losing streak. But the Nets have now won three of four, taking the pressure off the remainder of their schedule.
They were helped Monday when Ginobili, the reigning Western Conference player of the week, had such trouble with his back that he had trouble putting his pants on in the morning. Then reserve Roger Mason Jr. was forced to sit out the second half with a sprained right pinky knuckle. Duncan finished with 13 points and 12 rebounds but missed eight of his first 12 shots before finishing 6 of 15 from the field.
Courtney Lee scored 19 points and Devin Harris had 17 points and nine assists for the Nets. Terrence Williams had 11 of his 13 points in the fourth quarter.
A free throw by Lopez and a basket by Williams pushed it to 85-79, but San Antonio was back within three after Bonner's 3-pointer with 34 seconds left. The Spurs got the ball back after Harris' miss, but Duncan threw away a pass and the Nets closed it out from the foul line.
This appeared to be a tough week for New Jersey to get win No. 10, with San Antonio, Phoenix and New Orleans all coming to the Izod Center. But the Spurs who showed up Monday hardly looked like the team that was coming off victories over Cleveland and Boston.

Wizards' Arenas Gets 30 Days in house
Those famous 2 a.m. visits to the gym to work on his game? That's one Gilbert Arenas quirk the judge made sure won't happen, at least for the 30 days Arenas is subject to curfew at a halfway house.
Otherwise, Arenas can't have much reason to complain about the sentence levied Friday in his felony gun case. District of Columbia Superior Court Judge Robert E. Morin opted not to send the three-time NBA All-Star to jail for bringing guns into the Washington Wizards locker room.
The other statement issued after the sentencing offered less clarity about Arenas' future. The Wizards, who have become an embarrassment and a bottom-feeder in the NBA in part because of Arenas' troubles -- the team set a record with its 14th straight loss Friday night -- announced it was time for the team to be moving on, but there was no indication whether Arenas would be a part of it.
''We are confident that he has learned something significant from the experience,'' said the statement issued by president Ernie Grunfeld and the team owners, ''and we now look forward to moving on and focusing on building this team into the contender that our outstanding fans deserve.''
Arenas is already serving a league suspension through the end of the season for having guns in the locker room. The Wizards could attempt to void the last four years of his six-year, $111 million contract, although the NBA players' union has vowed to fight such a move. Grunfeld indicated in recent weeks that Arenas would be welcomed back, and Arenas has said he'd have no problem returning, but the final decision could rest with Ted Leonsis, the Washington Capitals owner who is expected to complete a purchase of the Wizards in the coming weeks.
Arguing for jail time, Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher Kavanaugh said Arenas had made ''a mockery of the judicial system'' by treating the criminal investigation as a joke. He pointed out that Arenas initially lied when asked why the guns were brought to the locker room, and said any other defendant with a similar criminal record would not be given merely probation and community service.
Otherwise, Arenas can't have much reason to complain about the sentence levied Friday in his felony gun case. District of Columbia Superior Court Judge Robert E. Morin opted not to send the three-time NBA All-Star to jail for bringing guns into the Washington Wizards locker room.

With Foam and Frustration in Air, Lakers Lose to Cavaliers
As the exasperation mounted, so did the technical fouls, and one by one the Lakers began collecting them. Then one by one, and soon by the dozens, foam souvenirs began raining down on the court, joined by the odd water bottle.
The Lakers entered the day not only as the defending N.B.A. champions, but also as the owners of the best record in the league. They had won 15 of 16 games since Pau Gasol returned from a hamstring injury.
But the Cavaliers, with myriad questions — not the least of which is whether LeBron James will leave town next summer — pushed them around for most of the afternoon. Cleveland got 28 points from point guard Mo Williams and 26 from James, but it was the Cavaliers’ willingness to get physical that separated them from the Lakers.
Cleveland jumped to a 20-point lead in the second quarter, and when the Lakers’ comeback went nowhere in the second half, they began to bicker with the Cavaliers and the officials. Lamar Odom drew two technicals, earning an ejection, and Kobe Bryant got one for a dismissive wave after being called for a foul following complaints about earlier no-calls.
Derek Fisher earned a technical foul for leveling Williams with a shoulder, and the Lakers’ bench got another when Jackson did not make a substitution in a timely manner.
The loss did not seem to raise many questions for the Lakers. They quickly acknowledged that the Cavaliers played with more energy than they did, but there have been far fewer of these moments this season than there were last — or during last season’s playoffs.

NBA board approves Bobcats' sale to Jordan
The NBA's Board of Governors on Wednesday unanimously approved Jordan's $275 million bid to buy the Charlotte Bobcats from Bob Johnson. Jordan will immediately take over the team after functioning as a minority investor with the final say on basketball decisions since 2006.
"Purchasing the Bobcats is the culmination of my post-playing career goal of becoming the majority owner of an NBA franchise," Jordan said in a statement. "I am especially pleased to have the opportunity to build a winning team in my home state of North Carolina.
Commissioner David Stern predicted last week the deal would be easily approved by the league's owners. Stern said last week that background and financial checks on Jordan produced nothing that would stop the deal, and expressed optimism Jordan's iconic status in this area will boost the franchise.The Bobcats (35-32) won their first game with Jordan in charge. Sitting courtside near the Charlotte bench on Wednesday night, Jordan watched the Bobcats rally to beat Oklahoma City 100-92 to maintain their hold on sixth place in the Eastern Conference. Team officials hope a playoff appearance after Jordan takes control will boost interest in the franchise, which plays in a 5-year-old downtown arena.
"We are pleased that Michael Jordan's purchase of majority ownership of the Bobcats was approved by the NBA's Board of Governors and closed in such a smooth and expeditious fashion," Stern said. "We look forward to the continued growth of the Bobcats, on and off the court, under his leadership."

Jordan's bid approved by NBA board
Michael Jordan became the first former player to be a majority team owner in the NBA when his $275 million bid to buy the Charlotte Bobcats was unanimously approved by the league's Board of Governors on Wednesday.Jordan will take over the money-losing team immediately from Bob Johnson after serving as a minority investor with the final say on basketball decisions since 2006.
The 47-year-old Jordan, who will assume about $150 million in debt in the deal, becomes the second black majority owner of a major US pro sports team. He replaces the first in Johnson, who paid $300 million for the expansion team, but lost tens of millions annually and saw the value of the team decline as Charlotte fans struggled to warm to the NBA again after the Hornets left for New Orleans in 2002.
The Bobcats entered Wednesday's home game against Oklahoma City in sixth place in the Eastern Conference with an eye on their first playoff berth. Team officials hope a playoff appearance after Jordan took control would boost interest and ticket sales in the team, which plays in a 5-year-old downtown arena.Jordan, who has declined interview requests since striking a deal to buy the team on February 26, is scheduled to hold a news conference on Thursday.

Yao in good spirits despite injury
Houston center Yao Ming was in good spirits on Sunday, despite the news that he'll miss the rest of the Rockets' National Basketball Association postseason campaign with a broken left foot."It's frustrating, but you have to be positive because it is already better than last year," Yao said. "It has already happened so I need to look forward and see what's the next step."
"I think I've been in harder situations before, much harder than this one," he said. "I believe that I can get through this one too."The towering Chinese star has contended with a series of injuries in his NBA career, including a stress fracture in his left foot in February of 2008 that ended his 2007-08 NBA campaign.
He broke his left foot for the first time with four games left in the 2005-06 season.He missed 32 games in the 2006-07 season with a broken right leg.
Yao had avoided a major injury in this regular season, his 77 games the most he had played since he appeared in 80 in 2004-05.
But the 28-year-old aggravated a foot injury in Houston's 108-94 loss to Los Angeles in game three on Friday, when he hobbled off the court in the waning minutes after clearly struggling in the fourth quarter.
Initially thought to be a sprained ankle, the injury was later discovered to be a hairline fracture of the foot.Even Lakers coach Phil Jackson was sympathetic.
"That's too bad," Jackson said. "Here's a guy who's been in the best shape I've ever seen him in. You always thought if you ran Yao for 30 or 32 minutes, he was going to fade in the game."This year, he's shown that he can play a 40-minute game and still have impact. I know it's a great disappointment for him."
Clad in a suit, he was on the sidelines supporting his teammates on Sunday."We played as a team, as a group for a long time this year. We understand that only the team can win the game, not a person, and no one is above this team and everyone on this team understands that."
The Rockets shrugged off the loss of Yao to stun the Lakers 99-87 on Sunday and level their Western Conference semifinal series at 2-2.Houston guard Aaron Brooks scored a career-high 34 points in the shock home-court win over the Lakers."We will never count ourselves out," Brooks told reporters. "If anybody is ready for this it would be us.
