Marc J. Spears of Andscape and ESPN recently interviewed Brooklyn Nets’ Ben Simmons and observed a significant change in his demeanor compared to the past two years. Spears stated: \u201cThis confidence and swag that he had (during the interview) certainly is much different than we\u2019ve seen from him in the last two years. He (Simmons) told me this is the healthiest he\u2019s been, which you know I\u2019m sure a lot of Nets fans and NBA fans are saying that they heard this before. But, one thing he mentioned when we went to get a bite in Miami was, hey I drove here and my back didn\u2019t hurt. A year ago, people had to drive me. I couldn\u2019t even sit still. And, so he\u2019s like, he\u2019s out of a lot of pain, he\u2019s talking about being an All-Star again.\u201d<\/p>\n
