Some quotes going into tomorrow at Training Camp
The Brooklyn Nets' team motto this season?
"Whatever it takes," new acquisition Jason Terry said Monday at the team's media day availability at Barclays Center.

D-Will:
"Personally, I just want to get better overall," Williams said. "The last couple years have not been my greatest, so I just want to get back to the way I'm playing and get my confidence back to the way it should to be."
"I just think that if you look at Game 7, we kind of were soft," Williams said of the team's identity. "That's the only way to put it. [But with the additions of Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett], I don't see that being a problem this year."
He said Nets trainer Tim Walsh wants him to take it slow, but he expects to be healthy by the start of the regular season Oct. 30 against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Reggie:
“It’s really gonna be tough for our starting unit in practice, to be honest with you,” Evans continued. “Because, like, our main thing is to go hard in practice so playing in the game will be a lot easier. So like I told Paul, I told Paul, ‘Ya’ll better be ready that first practice, because we can give it to y’all.’ But it’s all positive energy.”

Joe is ready to lay "Iso Joe" to rest:
“I’m looking forward to it,” Johnson said Monday of playing in first-year coach Jason Kidd’s offense, which is expected to be predicated more on ball movement and spacing than isolation sets.
“I think we’re all at a point in our careers where (wanting to be the No. 1 option) is all behind us and we’re all a lot older and later in our careers to the point where statistically guys will check their egos at the door,” he said.
