I wish the NBA would fire the owner. Ratner bought the team so he could get a real estate deal in Brooklyn and let the team fall apart.

I'm interested in seeing how they'll do when they move to Brooklyn and Jay-Z has a hand in the business of the team. He is a real fan and (I would guess) wants to see his team win vs. just make money, plus the people of Brooklyn will have their own team of any sport for the first time in 50 years, so the Nets will have fans in the stadium.

/Go Celtics!

I actually bothered to watch a Lakers game tonight to see if maybe, just maybe, the Nets could break the streak against the defending champions. After 1...notsomuch.

/and this TV announcing team is putting me in a coma.

What's the story with the Atlantic Yards project? They dumped Ghery, but is it going through or not?

I hope they lose every game. Being from New Jersey and being a fan of this team for 15 years, the Brooklyn b.s. has made me care so little about this team. Fat Ratner never cared about winning, his only motive was to move this team to Brooklyn when he bought it. I remember reading an interview with Alonzo Mourning when he was with the Nets briefly and Mourning recounting a conversation with Ratner. Mourning asked him why he bought the team and Ratner responded with "To move the team to Brooklyn".

What an insult to the White Star Line. 91-68 w/9:16 to go. LAKERS!

Who are they going to replace Frank with? He wasn't a bad coach, but who is out there that is better? Scott?

See LeBron? Knicks are your only option!

At least you will still be able to commute to the games.

Ask Sonics fans about that.fark Stern. Ratner is just another example of Stern pissing on fans and raping taxpayers to make another buck. I love the NBA, and Stern definitely turned it around, but that evil greedy fark has to go. He is doing more to kill fan loyalty than any crappy players every could.

it'd be hilarious if they went back to Scott after firing him for Frank
