Nets’ Simmons ready to ‘dominate people’
Claims to have swagger back in ESPN Andscape interview
While many continue to ponder whether the Nets will see Ben Simmons flash his previous All-Star form here in Brooklyn, the enigmatic point guard insists he’s ready to be better than he’s ever been this coming season.
“For me to come back and dominate people will be great,” Simmons told ESPN Andscape last week, revealing that he’s fully recovered from a back injury that sidelined him for the Nets’ run to the playoffs last year.
“I don’t intend to come back the same player I was last [season], because that’s not even close to where I am. I get excited because I’m like, ‘Damn, I would [expletive] on the player I was last year,'” he added.
