Well, if it wasn’t clear before (it wasn’t), the Brooklyn Nets are tanking. They traded the tank-defier himself, Dennis Schroder, on Saturday for a pair of second-round picks. Not convinced? Here’s what Sean Marks said about the trade.
“Missing him is difficult, but these are the decisions when your ultimate goal is long-term sustainable success. So we’re weighing a lot of factors in here. It’s never easy to see one of your own leave. But, at the same time, looking at the big picture here, this is what’s best for our organization long term.”
This comes the same day Sean Marks sat courtside to watch top prospect Dylan Harper hit a game-winner against Seton Hall.
