16 Apr Getting to Know ALL STAR BROOKLYN NETS BROOK LOPEZ
THE VUES: How does it feel to be in the playoffs again?
BROOK LOPEZ: It’s a huge honor. First and foremost I couldn’t have
done it without my teammates. They make my job 100 times
easier, playing with Deron (Williams), Joe (Johnson), Gerald
(Wallace), they gift wrap me buckets and take a lot of attention away
from me on the court. It is something I have been working towards and
it’s been a goal of mine .
