Although they held a groundbreaking ceremony last month an obstacle or two still remains between the Nets and their long discussed Brooklyn arena. Nets President Rod Thorn admits that there are still tenants on the land included in the project's footprint. The state of New York will likely unconstitutionally kick those folks out of their homes via eminent domain. (The law of the land now allows the wealthy and powerful to remove the less fortunate, forcibly if necessary, from their homes when convenient and/or fiscally beneficial.)
Also, the NBA Board of Governors, which rapidly approved the sale of the Charlotte Bobcats to a group led by Michael Jordan, despite his reputed gambling issues, is still investigating the Russian oligarch, billionaire nickel baron Mikhail Prokhorov, who intends to buy the Nets and finance the move to Brooklyn.
