Nets leaving no stone unturned in effort to build ticket sales
Beside a platter of chicken satay, Nets principal owner Bruce Ratner schmoozes with his customers."I want to meet you, I want to talk to you, I want to answer your questions," Ratner says later in his welcome speech.
NoLandGrab: Is he talking to us? Does Bruce Ratner want to speak to the citizens of Brooklyn? Oh hell no. He's having another barbecue to sell Nets tickets.
"Please," he tells the group from the head of a 40-foot table, "do whatever (the Nets) ask of you because we really need the money."
NoLandGrab: The bake sale will be held next Saturday at Bruce Ratner's house. And when you donate, please be generous. Just think of the children....
