When Bobby Marks did his post-mortem on the Nets — and talked about where they’re headed, he said this about Mikal Bridges.
“No closers on this team,” the former Nets GM turned “ESPN insider”said. “My apologies to Mikal Bridges. He’s probably the third best player on a top four team. I mean that’s the reality of it. He had a great year. He’s not a No. 1. I think he’s probably a No. 1 on a bad team. Probably a No. 2 on a team that’s a fifth seed, fourth seed. He’s not the No. 1 if you’re trying to win a championship.
