Nets reveal the long and short of new plan
Measured Expectations for Brooklyn as Training Camp Set to Open
Long on patience and short on wins isn’t exactly a ticket-selling team motto.
But the Brooklyn Nets, currently spearheaded by general manager Sean Marks and first-year head coach Kenny Atkinson, are apparently all in for a long, slow ascension through the NBA ranks, a far cry from the win-at-all-costs regime billionaire owner Mikhail Prokhorov came storming into our fair borough with five years ago.
“The season won’t be measured entirely by wins and losses,” Marks said Tuesday at the team’s Sunset Park training facility, where players have been gathering regularly for workouts leading up to next week’s official opening of training camp.
“It’ll be measured by the progress that’s made throughout the season and the buy-in from our players,” Mark added.
