“#Sean Marks still tweaking the Nets roster: ‘We’ll be fluid’<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

LAS VEGAS \u2014 The Nets can bring 20 players to training camp, and they\u2019re at that limit. But that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re done tweaking the roster.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, we\u2019ll always keep that door open. It\u2019s obviously not wide open anymore because we\u2019ve signed a lot of these guys, but I think it\u2019s cracked,\u201d general<\/a> manager Sean Marks said Wednesday. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to continue to tinker with the roster, and just see what happ<\/a>ens.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve seen in the past where other teams make cuts, and so forth, and we\u2019re able to adjust because of that. So I don\u2019t want to say that the roster\u2019s complete: Maybe it\u2019s 90 percent complete, 99 percent complete. But we\u2019ll definitely reserve the right to continue to tinker with this roster.\u201d<\/p>\n

Under Marks, the Nets have usually made late pickups. They signed Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot hours before the 2019 opener, and picked up Tyler Zeller in mid-September two years earlier.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll be fluid. We could potentially keep a roster spot open,\u201d Marks said. \u201cWe still have to agree on a two-way position as well. I don\u2019t think we\u2019ll necessarily make our mind up in the next 24, 48 hours.\u201d<\/p>\n

Marks acknowledged that he\u2019ll consult his stars on making roster moves. So far, his roster-building has shown a clear intent to shore up the defense by keeping Bruce Brown and adding the likes of Jevon Carter and James Johnson.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe won\u2019t have addressed all the needs until probably post-trade deadline, and that\u2019s when we\u2019ll really know what we\u2019ve got,\u201d Marks said. \u201cBut we wanted to make sure we were deep, make sure we were healthy, and certainly address some of those needs from a defensive standpoint.\u201d<\/p>\n

Part of the roster uncertainty is DeAndre Jordan. The veteran did not play in the final four game<\/a>s of the regular season or in any of the Nets\u2019 12 playoff games. He has been shopped around the league.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom a GM standpoint if we\u2019re not having calls around the league then none of us would be doing our job. That\u2019s what we do,\u201d Marks said. \u201cWhether the roster looks the same in a month or two I really don\u2019t know. But as it stands now DeAndre is certainty part of this roster.\u201d<\/p>\n

Marks \u2014 who was in Los Angeles on Tuesday to finalize Patty Mills\u2019 signing \u2014 landed the Aussie guard for the mid-level exception, with the second year an option, according to Spotrac. Marks also admitted he was surprised he was able to keep Brown for the $4.7 million qualifying offer, when league sentiment was he\u2019d get double that.<\/p>\n

\u201cAbsolutely; without a doubt. We certainly thought Bruce would be getting, whether it was an offer sheet,\u201d Marks said. \u201cBut at the same time, Bruce made it very clear that the job wasn\u2019t done here, and I respect the heck out of him for wanting to come back.\u201d<\/p>\n

Marks also addressed the call to leave Nic Claxton in Brooklyn for individual work.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe felt, not only from Nic\u2019s side but from an organizational standpoint there were some things that maybe he needed to focus on, and he could do that better on an individual basis working out with coaches,\u201d Marks said. \u201cHe\u2019s doing that in Brooklyn.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Nets beat the Bucks 97-91 Wednesday as Cam Thomas had a team-high 22 points, as well as four assists.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s definitely an adjustment, but with the real team I\u2019m gonna be coming off the bench anyway so this is just good practice for me to get used to [it],\u201d said Thomas.<\/p>\n

Fellow first-round pick Day\u2019Ron Sharpe had 11 points and eight boards (six offensive).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe other guys are gonna get tired of boxing you out sooner or later. If I keep going hard 24\/7, sooner or later somebody\u2019s gonna slip up,\u201d Sharpe said. \u201cGuys don\u2019t want to deal with a guy that\u2019s running after the ball and is nowhere near them.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Nets will hire former Magic and Hornets coach Steve Clifford as a consultant, as first reported by ESPN.\n <\/div>\n
