As free agency winds down, the pundits are out with the lists of winners and losers — and the Nets are topping most of the winners’ column.
In recent days, Zach Lowe of ESPN, John Hollinger of The Athletic and Ben Golliver of the Washington Post have the Nets as clear winners in free agency. In each case, the lists were compiled before Sean Marks’ comment that he’s “very confident” that he’ll add Kyrie Irving and James Harden’s signatures to contract extensions that will keep them in Brooklyn for another five years.
For Lowe, it’s a no-brainer to have Brooklyn at the top of his list of winners.
