Kyrie Irving already making presence felt as Nets leader

The Nets won’t start training camp for about six weeks, and the regular season for another month after that. But they’re clearly trying to get a head start, gathering on their own to work out en masse.

Much of the roster spent the past few weeks gathered almost 3,000 miles away from Brooklyn, building chemistry with informal workouts in Los Angeles. It’s noteworthy that it was newcomer Kyrie Irving — whose leadership skills were questioned when he played in Boston — who led the way.

“It was basically player-driven,” Theo Pinson told The Post at a Nets youth camp at Hellenic Classical Charter School in Park Slope.
