    “Excited to go into camp with this team.” – Marks when asked if Nets could be facilitator in Lillard deal.

    Jacque Vaughn stresses that Ben and Clax will be sharing the floor a ton and is interested to see how that looks with Ben being more physically capable this year

    Jacque Vaughn said he has an “agreement” with Ben Simmons that he will play point guard “as long as he is playing consistently at a high level.”

    Simmons previously said that he and JV had spoken in Miami this summer about his desire to play the position.

    Vaughn said he’ll still play small a lot, but expects Day’Ron Sharpe to get an early look for his rebounding. Adds Spencer Dinwiddie’s so-so 3-point percentage can benefit from being in catch-and-shoot positions playing off Ben Simmons. #Nets

    I hope he can play at high level again, but I don’t have any expectation that will be the case.

    Prove me wrong Ben!

    Great, Ben. Glad to see you’re better healthwise.

    You had a half season after the trade to get back on track, and then all of last season to recover from your back and leg injuries.

    This is the season Nets fans want you to succeed at a high level.

    Let’s get to work.

    I wish he flipped to the opposite side of the spectrum, confidently talking shit on teammates during practice like Butler. that’s what we need LOL

    I’m hopeful I think Ben’s gonna do some work this season
