Nets’ Sean Marks vows ‘due diligence’ when asked about possible trade

The Brooklyn Nets have had one of the quietest off-seasons in quite some time now that the superstar era is over and done with. While Brooklyn appears happy with the current roster and is ready to move forward, there are some who are still wondering if the Nets are looking to make any major moves.

Brooklyn general manager Sean Marks was asked about the reports over the summer suggesting that the Nets were one of the teams that could be interested in being the third team that helps facilitate Portland Trail Blazers superstar Damian Lillard getting traded to the Miami Heat. With recent reports suggesting that any teams are joining the sweepstakes since Portland and Miami cannot come to a deal, there is interest regarding whether is one of the teams trying to swoop in for Lillard or another package.

There haven’t been any indications on how strongly Brooklyn is interested in the entire ordeal or if they are still interested at all after Lillard essentially eliminated them from his wish list. Marks answered the question in a general manner that seems to imply that Brooklyn is satisfied with the current roster, but that anything can change during the season:

“Every different example, every different opportunity, we’ve got to take a look at. So, as it stands right now, I think we’re excited about going into camp with this group. It’s pro Sports and as I’ve said before, things do change over the course of a year, two years and so forth. I mean, there’s been no restrictions on how we build.”
