A wrong number: The New Jersey Nets announced this week that they have made T-Mobile their partner for the NBA playoffs. Only one problem ... the Nets did not make the playoffs. The Los Angeles Times quotes Brett Yormark, the Nets' chief executive on this issue: "We are committed to having our fans 'stay connected' with us by offering a number of exciting events and promotions during the playoffs." One can only hope they are more exciting than Nets games were this season.
