Anyone else watching the Nets game? I'm kind of sad that there's not going to be a team in NJ anymore; I have some good memories of going to Nets games when I was a kid.

Of course not, that's why they're moving.

Newark is a vibrant city?
This is a terrible game by the way, it reminds me of most Knicks from 2002 through 2010.
I am going to put it on now. I have watched the Nets a lot over the years. Ross and Rafferty drove me nuts with their broadcasts.
Sixers clinched a playoff spot.
Stern will put another franchise in Newark for me to hate
Avery Johnson has coached the Nets the last two seasons. So what have they improved on?
"For us, our team didn't even know how to practice. Now there's a good spirit about practice," Johnson replied.
Perfect. 
I'm sure a few years in Brooklyn and they might even develop a good spirit about the actual games.

He's talkin' about PRACTICE, man.

Overused AI reference.

I think they'll have to wait until they see if the Nets can survive in Brooklyn.
The only time the Nets sold out was when the Knicks played them. Unless Stern is going to let the Knicks play the new NJ team 41 times, I'm not sure the NYC metro area can support 3 franchises.
U might be right. If anything they will put a team in central/south jersey and compete withphilly. That fanbase doesn't make it to the garden they go to philly and root for the sixers
Good Riddance Nyets!

May you crash and burn with dignity in Brooklyn! 
team names:
The Thunder
The Heat
The Jazz
and in the future"
"The New Jersey Snooki"

You know that'd pack out the house. Could not even imagine the half time show...
Or the NJ Situations
Welcome to Brooklyn, Nyets!








Is that a real picture or photoshop. The Brooklyn Dodgers while and blue look is cool but not feeling the red numbers and outlining

Is that the logo? The "B" looks cool.
I gotta say, seeing the "Brooklyn" on the floor kind of gets me excited!
personally I don't care if its the Nets, its the "Brooklyn" thing and the branding that gets me exited.
I think its great for NY basketball and the more intense the rivalry the better.
I'd just assume the Knicks be the top dog because they are successful and not by the Nets being lousey.
the court & logo looks great. The jersey's not so much. Don't like the font and the colors should be white, blue & gray not red. If you're going to suck you might as well look good doing it!
