Vince Carter debuted with the Nets scoring 23 points, but was unavailable for most of the overtime session.  The Nets ended up losing to the Pistons 100-90.

"I'm OK -- it just cramped up," he said. "I'll be fine as soon as I get some fluids into me."

The game was his first since he strained an Achilles' tendon in Toronto's 90-86 overtime loss to the Pistons on Dec. 8. He was traded to the Nets on Dec. 17.

"I guess this is twice here, but I'm sure the cramps would have happened anywhere," he said. "I played a lot of minutes in my first game back, and I guess I got dehydrated. I felt good until then, and my Achilles' is fine."
