There’s good news and bad news in the Hoopshype interview with Greivis Vasquez, who the Nets signed as Jeremy Lin’s back-up this summer but then needed season-ending surgery. The loss of Vasquez, coming after Lin went down with a hamstring strain, basically screwed the Nets season. The team was left without a veteran point guard. Vasquez was also a leader in the locker room.
For the first time, Vasquez —or anyone— described in detail why after 38 minutes of playing time in three games, he had to go under the knife for a second time in a year.
