In an interview with WFAN’s Evan Roberts and Joe Benigno, Ian Eagle talked about how the Nets despite their record are getting noticed by players and their agents.
Asked if the Nets, with their projected 30 wins, could consider the season successful, Eagle noted the record is only part of the calculus.
“They won 20 last year. The goal was to improve,” Eagle told Roberts, a big Nets fan. “The goal was to develop players and the general feeling is that they are doing that, that they are taking players and making them better and creating a feeling around the league that Brooklyn could be a stop, a destination along the way, ‘if you want to improve your skills and you want to play in a close-knit atmosphere with a good feeling around the organization, that this might be a place for you.
