For a few moments, I forgot that the Super Bowl was being held in Indiana this week. Maybe thats why there seems to be a few extra fans watching the Pacers taking on a not so attractive Nets team.
With visions of the Super Bowl in fans heads, the Nets are channeling their inner Giant tonight to try and take down a tough Pacer team.
Now this game has nowhere near the implications and ramifications of Big Blue's upset over the Patriots a few years ago, but with the Nets you never know where their inspiration will come from.

Brandon Jacobs being in the stands may have finally helped the Nets find the offensive consistency they have been lacking.
The Nets jumped out to a quick 10-3 lead just two minutes into the game capped off by a thunderous and-one dunk by Deron Williams over the Pacers Roy Hibbert.
However, that lead quickly evaporated quickly in just a two minute span.
Despite showing signs of the same old inconsistent Nets team, that was the last run of the first half and the Nets have managed to stay tight only trailing 55-53 at the half.
The Nets are shooting 50 percent from the field and 6-11 from the field. Deron Williams has erupted for 17 points despite only having one assist.
Hump is back after dropping a goose egg against the Raptors and has 11 points while Jordan Farmar has ten off the bench.
Its about time the Nets abandoned there inconsistent offensive ways, maybe the magic of Big Blue has that effect on people.
