Brand new Net Joe Johnson has already stated that he thinks the Nets are the best NBA team in New York. Now he’s professing that it won’t take them long to win a championship. Does he realize they haven’t even played a game yet?
Q: Why did you say the Nets are better than the Knicks?
A: ‘The Brooklyn Nets have to have swag, and it starts with confidence. You can’t go out hoping and wishing, but you have to know and feel that way before you take the court. I think we should all feel that we’re a pretty good damn team.’
Q: How long will it take for you to help bring a championship to Brooklyn?
A: ‘Honestly, not long. I think we got some great pieces to put us in position to win a title, honestly. … This could be probably the best team I’ve ever played on.’
