Count Ian Eagle among the skeptics about the Nets right now. In a podcast with Spence Checketts on ESPN Radio this weekend, the YES Network announcer raised question after question about Brooklyn’s chemistry, their roster shuffling and in particular, about Steve Nash’s coaching and Ben Simmons future.
The depth and breadth of the questions was a rarity for Eagle who has 20 years of experience calling Nets games ... and so the resulting credibility.
While Eagle posed more questions about the team’s future, he also talked about when he realized that the Nets were not going anywhere in the playoffs.
