Nets Focus Advertising in Times Square

"The Nets, at least three years from leaving the Meadowlands for Brooklyn, are taking over advertising turf in Times Square," writes Richard Sandomir of the NEW YORK TIMES. "A 70-by-45-foot billboard featuring Vince Carter, Jason Kidd and Richard Jefferson will hang from the side of a movie multiplex and face Eighth Avenue, just off West 42nd Street, by Friday.""Washington Wizards Coach Eddie Jordan said he believes the time has arrived for the franchise to do something it hasn't done since Wes Unseld's Bullets went to the NBA Finals in 1979: get past the second round of the playoffs," writes Ivan Carter of the WASHINGTON POST. "Jordan will get his first real look at this season's team on Tuesday when training camp opens in Richmond."
