Jay-Z gets Brooklyn Nets arena approved

Yup, that's right, Jay-Z was the mastermind behind the entire approval:
They might not have been the main event (that honor goes to LeBron James), but Jay-Z and Beyonce were a featured attraction at the New Jersey Nets-Cleveland Cavaliers game Wednesday in East Rutherford, N.J., aired nationally on ESPN.... Sideline reporter Jim Gray was sitting between the couple when they came back from commercial.... There was some significance to the courtside interview besides the usual ESPN celebrity stalking. Earlier in the day, the state of New York granted approval for Nets owner Bruce Ratner's arena in Brooklyn, which could be ready for the start of the 2009-10 season. In the interview, Jay-Z called out his home in his trademark style before expressing his excitement at the prospects of Brooklyn basketball.
