Ian Eagle, appearing on the SI Media Podcast with Richard Deitsch, talked about how the Nets still have a long way to go but he likes the way Sean Marks is handling things and thinks maybe they “still have some things up their sleeves” in free agency.
While he didn’t explain, the YES broadcaster also said he feels the Nets “have got to hit on one of these restricted free agents.”
In general, Eagle said he likes what Marks et al have done in the rebuild from what he called “unprecedented situation.”
“We've seen teams that have hit the reset button and have ‘tanked’ with the idea that they accumulate young players then hope that the chemistry develops, try to accumulate assets so that they can make trades, be flexible,” Eagle told Deitsch.
