NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The Brooklyn Nets may have plenty of new faces this season, but their goals are basically the same.

In the first year of general manager Sean Marks’ multiyear rebuild, the Nets finished with the NBA’s worst record in 2016-17, going just 20-62.

At a news conference Tuesday, Marks said he was hesitant to quantify his goals for the team this season, saying only he hopes to see his young players continue to develop.

“As we saw last year (with point guard Jeremy Lin), one major injury can derail every plan you may have had and so forth,” Marks said.
