Gregg Polinsky is a Nets lifer who’s not well-known among fans ... and he probably likes it that way. He’s the Nets Director of Player Personnel —essentially the chief scout— a job he’s held going back to 2004, when Jason Kidd and Kenyon Martin played in New Jersey. He was hired as a scout five years before that around the time John Calipari was fired.
Although he has an office at HSS Training Center, he operates out of his home in Birmingham, Alabama, and every year around this time, he goes on Alabama’s Tide 102.
