The Good News: <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">WASHINGTON, March 31 (Ticker) -- The New Jersey Nets finally played their first overtime game. Lucious Harris and Jason Collins made it worthwhile. Harris sank a pair of clinching free throws after a key controlling tip by Collins as the Nets rallied to defeat the Washington Wizards, 103-99, for just their second victory in eight games. Richard Jefferson collected 28 points and a season-best 14 rebounds, Harris added a season-high 24 points and Kerry Kittles 18 for the Nets, who were the only team in the NBA yet to play an overtime game this season. The Nets, who rallied from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime, held a 100-99 lead after a 3-pointer by Washington's Mitchell Butler with 18 seconds left in the extra session. Kittles was fouled a second later and made his first free throw before misfiring on his second attempt. The 7-foot Collins jumped over two Wizards to tip the ball to Harris, who was fouled and sank two free throws to open a four-point cushion with 13 seconds to go. Washington turned the ball over on its next possession, and New Jersey ran out the clock</div> Now for the bad news: <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">All-Star Nets forward Kenyon Martin, who had missed six games with right knee tendinitis, had four points in 12 minutes but sat out the second half with soreness in the knee.</div> Link Box Scores
