Nets notebook: Ratner's plan to move Nets angers Carril
Newark Star-Ledger:
Uh-oh, now Bruce Ratner has really done it. He's got the King of Jersey Basketball mad at him.
In fact, Pete Carril marched up to some stranger last night, demanded to know whether he was the "new owner," and immediately started scolding him for moving the Nets out of New Jersey. Then he had to be told that he was speaking to a team publicist, and that Ratner is not with the team.
Either way, the legendary coach wasn't done. Even a half-hour later, long after he had calmed down, The Great One said, "You've got to get the owner to cut the crap and stay in New Jersey. I wish he knew what the hell he was doing. And you can quote me on that."
