When the Nets take the court, don't be surprised to see MarShon Brooks, Deron Williams and Joe Johnson playing together in the backcourt. Don't be surprised either if you see Brooks in the post. (He tweeted about that Sunday). In other words, Brooks role will likely be different this year, and likely elevated.
Brooks hasn't gotten much attention this off-season. He is, after all, the only player on the 13-man roster who wasn't signed, re-signed, drafted or traded for. Kels Dayton, in Roundball Daily, writes about Brooks' possibilities. "It seems opportunities will be coming fast and furious for Brooks, who just might help transform Brooklyn into one of the league’s most exciting teams to watch."
