I got love for Buffalo, shyt would be dope
Nets will never even have a Yankees-Mets, Rangers-Oilers, Jets-Giants dynamic
But it would be too much of an L if they had to leave Brooklyn the investors wouldn’t let it happen
Should’ve stayed their asses in Newark and tried to build something that was “their own” in coordination with the Devils and Red Bulls (if that soccer stadium were close by instead of in Harrison).
Being in Brooklyn has done them ZERO favors and everything needed to work out from the start. If the team with Garnett made a Finals run it would’ve meant something. The islanders bailed because Barclays is just not a good arena even tho they had ample land to make it superior arena — but they cheaped out.
If Jay Z was gonna be involved to be the mascot they should’ve locked him into a 10 year deal for optics if he was really that serious (which he wasn’t). Prokhorov just wasn’t the guy for this project and he bailed 8 years into the shït. Meanwhile the CACs in that part of Brooklyn don’t even resemble true sports fans. But at least the arena had great transportation options. Still — you can’t ever beat the great location of MSG and now the Knicks are morphing into a great team to hitch a bandwagon onto.
