Now, with the preseason out of the way, everyone’s attention turns to next week’s season opener between the teams at Barclays Center, the Nets first regular-season game in Brooklyn.

“It’s probably going to be a crazy week,” Nets coach Avery Johnson said afterward. “We’ve got to try to keep the guys’ anxiety levels down, and focus on our team and focus on getting better.

“I know on one hand guys are going to be excited and happy when the game comes around, and a lot of them are probably going to be excited when it’s over with, so they can move on.”
