Lawrence: Nets Should Deal Carter

Mitch Lawrence of the NEW YORK DAILY NEWS, "Lawrence Frank emptied his bench and did Vince Carter a favor, maybe the last one he ever gets as a New Jersey Net. Carter got to walk off the court with the great Jason Kidd, so there was nothing but cheers coming from the stands.

Cavaliers Hope Defense Prevails

In the CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER, Jodie Valade writes “they talk about defending their honor, defending their own, and most of all, defending their basket. Not all of this is new for the Cavaliers, but putting it all together is something both fresh and old-fashioned at the same time. The Cavaliers call themselves a true playoff team, now defensive-minded, physical and tough. Finally. They showed it against the Nets in Game 4, when the Cavaliers won in true playoff, grind-it-out fashion.”
