New Jersey's last 10-game winning streak was from Dec. 19, 2002-Jan. 6, 2003. The Nets have taken off, winning new coach Lawrence Frank's first eight games. With a win Wednesday, Frank can tie Buddy Jeannette (1947) and Kurt Rambis (1999) for the most wins by a coach at the start of his career.

The Nets are intent on keeping their momentum through the All-Star break.

"The way things are going this year, up and down, we got it now on high," Nets All-Star forward Kenyon Martin said. "We want to go to the All-Star break on a high. (Wednesday) night against Cleveland is big for us."

The Nets have won by an average of nearly 15 points per game during their winning streak, capturing every game by double digits.

Richard Jefferson poured in 27 points and All-Star Jason Kidd just missed a triple-double with 16 points, nine assists and nine rebounds as New Jersey posted an 89-78 victory over Detroit on Tuesday. The Nets held a commanding 54-35 advantadge on the glass despite playing without starting center Jason Collins, who missed his second straight game with a sprained right toe.

New Jersey posted a 97-82 victory over Cleveland in the first meeting on Jan. 2. Kidd finished with 26 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds and Jefferson and Kerry Kittles each scored 20 points.

The Nets' first game against LeBron James was one of the rookie's worst performances. James scored 14 points on 6-of-19 shooting to go with nine assists.

Cleveland snapped a three-game skid with Tuesday's 97-89 victory over Boston in Ricky Davis' return to Gund Arena. The 19-year-old James scored 24 points and became the youngest player to reach the 1,000-point plateau.

The Nets have lost three straight and 12 of their last 14 visits to Cleveland.
