Jason Kidd notched his 11th career playoff triple double (23 points, 14 assists, 13 rebounds), helping the Nets to a 96-85 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game Three of the Eastern Conference semifinals. Kidd moved past Larry Bird and now trails only Magic Johnson (30) for most career playoff triple doubles. The Nets' biggest problem during the first two games in Cleveland was a huge rebounding deficit but New Jersey won the battle of the boards 43-30 this time, with their "big three" perimeter trio of Kidd, Vince Carter and Richard Jefferson nearly matching the Cavs' rebounding by themselves.
