Basketball: Andrew Bogut believes the Boomers will face an uphill battle to replicate their medal success of Tokyo at the Paris Olympic Games.
Aussies will struggle to medal in Paris? | 03:20During Nets general manager Sean Marks’ first comments regarding a franchise-changing offseason, he was asked about potential draft picks, a couple of teenagers, a coach who won’t debut for months and a player not even on the roster anymore.That’s how out-of-sight, out-of-mind Brooklyn’s only All-Star is.But his camp insists he’s finally fit for the first time as a Net.
Acquired at the cost of James Harden, Simmons has played just 57 games in parts of three seasons with the Nets.“You can’t count on Ben Simmons,” ex-Nets assistant GM Bobby Marks told The Post. “So if he shows up to training camp and he’s sharing the backcourt with the Brooklyn Knight and Mr. Whammy, he’ll figure it out. He’s focused on having the best year of his career and if he does I’m pretty sure all of that uncertainty will quickly disappear.”What kind of role Simmons plays this upcoming season bears watching.It was a move that Simmons wasn’t warned about, unlike Nic Claxton and new coach Jordi Fernandez.
