Bruce Ratner extends Meadowlands lease for NJ Nets
The official position is that the NJ Nets are still moving to Brooklyn for the 2009-2010 season, and "responsible planning" is the only reason they signed a lease extension with an option to stay at the Meadowlands through the 2012-2013 season.
Had Bruce Ratner tipped his hat to "responsible planning" in the first place, the team might have been gearing up for its debut next month, as originally planned.
