Nets coach Lionel Hollins is not a fan of vocal leadership.

“Did Stephen Curry say it? When Stephen Curry speaks, everybody listens … so it must be right,” Hollins said. “I see the same thing. Here’s the deal. Too much is made of leadership. Everybody should be a leader on the court.

“The worst kind of leadership is that ‘Rah-rah, come on, everybody.’ To me, that’s just annoying people. I think leadership is like, ‘OK, somebody’s missed two or three, don’t worry about it, I got you, I’m going to come back to you again.’
