 WASHINGTON (AP) - As much as the New Jersey Nets and Washington Wizards count on their outstanding trios, it helps to have scoring from elsewhere, too.
The Nets got more of a boost from role players Tuesday night and that, coupled with Richard Jefferson's 21-point second half, allowed New Jersey to break open a tight game late, beating Washington 112-100 for its sixth consecutive victory.
"Our bench — hey, look, in six straight games they've been very, very good," Nets coach Lawrence Frank said. "The contributions those guys are making on both ends has obviously been very, very big."
