Nets free agent Harris meets with Nash
So far, new Nets coach Steve Nash has been coy about his coaching staff and playing style. But both he and Joe Harris seem clear on one thing: They each want to see the free agent back in Brooklyn.
Harris — an unrestricted free agent — said during the season he hoped to stay in Brooklyn, and GM Sean Marks called retaining him a “top priority.” Harris confirmed meeting with both Nash and Marks, and the newly hired coach expressed a desire to keep the sharpshooter in a Net uniform.
