KEY GAME INFORMATION
BROOKLYN: GUARDS: DERON WILLIAMS will surely take on more of a distributor role this year, but he's still this team's best option from three-point range, as well . . . JOE JOHNSON started to break down last season, so along with fewer shots (with the upgrade to the rest of the roster), he figures to play fewer regular-season minutes as well . . . JASON TERRY is clearly in the decline phase of his career, but is still the top scoring option among Brooklyn's second unit . . . ALAN ANDERSON gives them another shooter off the bench . . . SHAUN LIVINGSTON steps into the back-up point guard spot vacated by C.J. Watson. The injury-prone vet will be one of the more rarely used back-up PGs . . . TYSHAWN TAYLOR will be a non-factor. FORWARDS: PAUL PIERCE still has something left in the tank. While his athleticism is fading, he's still a cagey scorer who can also play some point forward to set up Williams . . . ANDREI KIRILENKO will be a Swiss army knife sixth man and should see plenty of starts as new head coach Jason Kidd rotates which veterans rest . . . REGGIE EVANS was retained for his rebounding ability and willingness to look ridiculous while flopping . . . ANDRAY BLATCHE will continue to settle in as a second-unit big. He's a name to remember for the future, as Kevin Garnett doesn't have much left in the tank . . . MIRZA TELETOVIC will be a seldom-used option as a stretch four . . . TORNIKE SHENGELIA is still years away from contributing, and the influx of veterans will further delay his development. CENTERS: Last year did a lot to assuage durability concerns for BROOK LOPEZ. He's highly skilled, and he may be forced to grab more rebounds now that Reggie Evans is on the second unit . . . KEVIN GARNETT will start at power forward. He's still an effective pick-and-pop shooter and pick-and-roll defender, but he'll have to rest often during the regular season . . . MASON PLUMLEE is in no position to help this season.
DENVER: GUARDS: TY LAWSON is turning into something of a one-man army as the roster around him crumbles. As good as he is as a quick playmaker who can knock down an open three, his supporting cast is lacking . . . EVAN FOURNIER is better than RANDY FOYE now, and he's certainly a bigger part of Denver's future. Fournier proved surprisingly ready for the NBA last season. While Foye brings more scoring power to a team that suddenly lacks offense, he's both inefficient and one-dimensional . . . NATE ROBINSON will provide instant offense and lead the second unit . . . ANDRE MILLER will lose a few minutes this year, but the 37-year-old still has good basketball left. FORWARDS: Coming off a late-season ACL tear, DANILO GALLINARI will be lucky to make it back by December . . . KENNETH FARIED will likely never develop into anything more than an energy guy and high-volume rebounder, but he's good at what he does . . . WILSON CHANDLER can shoot and defend multiple positions. With Gallinari a question mark, he could be in for a much bigger role this year . . . DARRELL ARTHUR is an interesting second-unit player. He's an athlete who was starting to show some skill in Memphis before getting hurt . . . Gunning wingman JORDAN HAMILTON may get a longer look in the second half of the season . . . QUINCY MILLER is likely ticketed for more D-League action . . . ANTHONY RANDOLPH is a lost cause. CENTERS: The time has arrived for JAVALE MCGEE. The front office wants him on the floor full-time. For all the knucklehead plays, he's still an incredible athlete in a massive 7-foot frame . . . Talk of J.J. HICKSON potentially starting is absurd. A brutal defender unable to play within the flow of an offense, he's a second-unit talent . . . TIMOFEY MOZGOV is Plan B behind McGee. The 7-footer can defend and set screens.

*Nets-Nuggets Preview* ======================

Brooklyn (26-29) at Denver (25-31), 10:30 p.m. EDT

Jason Kidd was in his last full season with the Nets the last time they won in Denver.

He won't have much time to get his club ready after it matched the franchise's fourth-worst loss.

Times are also tough for fellow first-year coach Brian Shaw's Nuggets, who have lost eight of nine entering Thursday night's matchup.

Brooklyn (26-29) fell 124-80 at Portland on Wednesday. It was the Nets' worst loss since a 110-63 defeat at Memphis on Dec. 13, 2003 - when Kidd was playing point guard.

The Nets trailed by 24 at halftime against the Trail Blazers and Kidd did not use anyone for more than 27 minutes with an eye on Thursday.

"Again on a long road trip you may have a game like this," Kidd said. "You don't want to but it happens and so we've got to put this one behind us and get ready for Denver."

Now Brooklyn will try to improve on a 3-10 mark in the second half of back-to-back games and avoid a seventh straight loss in Denver. Kidd had 18 points and 12 assists in the Nets' last win there, 112-102 on Jan. 27, 2007.

The Nets will be out to avenge a 111-87 home loss to the Nuggets (25-31) on Dec. 3. Deron Williams, Paul Pierce and Andrei Kirilenko all missed that game due to injuries.

Denver is the team battling injuries now. Ty Lawson has missed the last seven games with a left rib fracture, Darrell Arthur is out with a left hip strain and Nate Robinson is out for the season with a torn left ACL.

Those players combined for 32 points in the first meeting.

Shaw's short-handed club fell behind by 11 points after one quarter Tuesday and its late rally fell short in a 100-95 home defeat to the Trail Blazers.

"The effort that they showed for the majority of that fourth quarter is the effort that we have to come out with from the beginning of the game," Shaw said. "I didn't think we had that in the first quarter and that resulted in an 11-point deficit in the first quarter."

This trip to Colorado will feature a special moment in Jason Collins' third game for Brooklyn since signing his historic 10-day contract. The family of slain Wyoming college student Matthew Shepard is expected to make the drive to Denver for the game.

Shepard was tortured and murdered in 1998 because he was gay. Collins wears his No. 98 jersey in Shepard's honor. He wants to keep the details of any meeting with Judy Shepard to himself.

"Obviously, it's extremely special and I'm very much looking forward to meeting them," said Collins, whose jersey has become a top seller according to the NBA.

The Nets were outrebounded 53-29 by the Trail Blazers and now will have to try to slow down J.J. Hickson, who grabbed a career-high 25 boards and scored 16 points Tuesday for the Nuggets. Hickson came off the bench after 50 straight starts.

"Twenty-five boards is exciting, but the win would have been more exciting," Hickson said.
