More Hot Shooting Propels Nets To Win In Phoenix
The Nets' hot shooting from 3-point range continued in Phoenix on Friday. And this time, it actually carried them to their third win of the season, a 110-103 victory over the Suns. Deron Williams led the way with 35 points and 14 assists.

Nets 54, Suns 51 at the half.
Game 12 - Nets @ Suns - Friday, January 13, 9:00
Oh wow, it's Friday the 13th. What could go wrong? Hold your tongue! The Nets go into Phoenix in hopes of turning around a bad stretch particularly on defense. As Fred Kerber reports, "Offensively, the Nets have been reborn. The 3-point shot has become a weapon to be feared (56-of-121, .463). They have averaged more than 100 points (100.8). A veritable irresistible force, of sorts" But on defense?
Deron Williams' Ankle Is "No Issue"
The Nets didn't practice Thursday. It was not a reward, just a concession to the schedule...and injuries. They will play Friday vs. the Suns, Saturday vs. the Jazz, then early Monday afternoon vs. the Clippers, all of them on the road.
