ABOUT THE Nets: Playing without the injured Devin Harris, the Nets scored a lopsided home victory over Memphis on Wednesday. Even playing without their starting point guard, the Nets matched their season high with 28 assists, with 12 coming from Vince Carter and eight from Keyon Dooling. The Nets have won three of their last four - the loss coming in overtime to Miami - to return to the .500 mark.

PLAYER TO WATCH

Brook Lopez, Nets

The rookie center showed signs of breaking out of a slump by contributing 17 points, eight rebounds and five blocks in the victory over Memphis. Six of his baskets came on dunks. After making 10 of 34 shots in his previous three games, Lopez made eight of 11 shots against the Grizzlies. For the season, he is averaging 10.3 points and 8.0 rebounds in 28.6 minutes per game.
