Mason Plumlee wants to start for Brooklyn Nets? Should he?
Mason Plumlee has that confidence ... and now that he's not a rookie, he's more willing to talk about his goals.
"Oh yeah," Plumlee replied this week when asked if he wanted to start. "What player doesn’t wanna start?"
That would mean power forward, a position that Kevin Garnett held down last year and Mirza Teletovic has to have his eye on as well. Plumlee has been playing a bit of center and power forward in the fast-moving Team USA offense and getting praise for it from his coaches, both on Team USA and the Nets.
He revealed that every day in Las Vegas, he saw the Nets coaching staff. Lionel Hollins took his staff to Vegas for a "retreat" and as a side benefit, they got to talk with Plumlee regularly.
