Was a little meh at the MLE but for the league minimum great depth move.

He's lost a bit of a step, but once people understood who he was as a player, instead of continuing to admire what they wanted him to become and then being let down when they realized he was older and developed already, and was what he was, I always figured he should have been considered one of the premier tier 2, 3&D wings/tweeners, like a Morris twin. But he hasn't, he's just been considered a JAG.

I'm not saying he's a game changer, or needle mover, but we just signed a guy for vet min, who imho, is still 5th best starter on a title team material and that's fantastic.

Brooklyn’s bench contributed 40 points, led by Jeff Green’s 18. Green signed a one-year deal for the veterans minimum. He’s one of three Nets to play in all 30 games.

The 34-year-old has also emerged as Brooklyn’s leader inside the locker room. Last week, when the Nets fell to the subpar Pistons, Green had a heart-to-heart with the team. Per teammate Joe Harris, Green told the team: “We’ve got to come together or we’re just going to keep having the same talk over and over again.”

The Nets are on a four-game win streak since the talk, jumped the Bucks for the second seed in the Eastern Conference, and are just one game back of the Sixers.

“He’s definitely been a voice of reason,” Steve Nash said of Green last Wednesday. “He provides a lot with his experience and the respect he deserves.”

Q: How high is Nic Claxton’s ceiling?

A: Very high, that kid is special. His length … he’s been improving each time I’ve seen him since I’ve been here.

Q: Joe Harris?

A: A lethal shooter.

Q: Bruce Brown?

A: Tenacious. Biggie Smalls, that’s my guy.

Q: Biggie Smalls?

A: Yeah, plays like a big, but he’s small.

Q: What have you learned about the borough of Brooklyn?

A: It’s a beautiful, beautiful borough. I’m definitely enjoying my time here. One thing I did not know is the family-oriented feel that it has.

Marks must resign Uncle Jeff for sure. Guy is pro's pro and he is BALLING CONSISTENTLY. Give him three years mMLE and sign him on a dot. Why no one would give him contract is mind boggling.
