Ratner re-signs Frank
The NY Post is reporting that Nets owner and Atlantic Yards developer Bruce Ratner has re-signed head coach Lawrence Frank to a two-year, $8.6 million contract extention.
In 2004, Frank stepped in as Byron Scott's replacement mid-season, just a week after Bruce Ratner bought the team. The Times reports that since then Frank has "led the team to more victories than any coach in team history," though the historically mediocre franchise is blessed with being in the even-more mediocre Atlantic division.
Here's a sampling of the coverage:
