It was a cold day in January and Ben and I had the spontaneous idea to go to StubHub and see if there were good tickets to the Nets game. There were and so off we went to see what turned out to be a good game from very good seats. As a result we could see the dancers well and noted the score which went our way when the first quarter was over. As the game continued, I recorded the action (notice the ball in the photos) pausing to see the celeb-cam highlighting John Amos before getting back to the game as the half approached with a less pleasant score. At half time, we learned that it was Latin Family night which explained the Los Nets T shirts we had been given on arrival and the presentation to Goya on their 75th anniversary at half time and then the NETS flags made their way around the court (with many many anagrams possible) before the action resumed and I turned to capturing foul shots

before the Celeb-Cam brought us Snooki (that NYTimes best selling author) as the game continued with Jason Kidd posing on his homecoming as the action rounded out the 3rd quarter in a tie and the people on stilts and dancers welcomed the fourth quarter and its action before the cheerleaders were flung into the air and a protested call let the dancers come out as the referees conferred and play resumed with more free throws

with the dancers leading to a jump ball that was so exciting, my camera blurred and then we were down beyond crunch time with the Nets ahead by 1 and then the Mavericks took the lead with 6 seconds left and so the Nets huddled but it wasn't to be so that the Mavericks celebrated as we recorded our tickets and the game poster and made our way home on the train.
