Magic Johnson Urges Kevin Durant?s Nets to Tie Down Major Piece to a Long Term Deal: ?What Are You Waiting For??

The Brooklyn Nets are currently the second seed in the Eastern Conference with a 27-13 record. After struggling with a number of issues during the first couple of months of the season, the Nets are finally on a roll. The superstar duo of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant have been clicking on all cylinders and head Jacque Vaughn is a huge reason behind the team’s form so far. Now, Los Angeles Lakers legend Magic Johnson has urged the Nets owner to lock down the head coaching position.

The Brooklyn Nets recently parted ways with head coach Steve Nash. The Nets then made assistant coach Jacque Vaughn the interim head coach which has really worked wonders for the team.
