It’s ‘show me’ time for Nets in 2018-19
Wins and losses will eventually trump development for Brooklyn
In his first two seasons, Kenny Atkinson has more than lived up to his reputation as one of the best player-development gurus in the NBA.
Spencer Dinwiddie, Caris LeVert, Joe Harris, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and rookie Jarrett Allen have all grown exponentially under the guidance of the tireless and determined Nets head coach.
General manager Sean Marks, who has been at the helm since Feb. 18, 2016, has proven that he can get Atkinson the players he needs to build a solid foundation in Brooklyn, despite having to wait until the summer of 2019 to control his own first-round draft pick.
