Question: How does LeBron James affect Newark? Answer: In no way, shape, form, or fashion if the Nets get their way. They want to move to Brooklyn so bad that they were willing to use the Manifest Destiny Remix - Eminent Domain - to make it happen.

However, they may not get their wish. First, the proposed Brooklyn arena might not be finished by the time James becomes a free agent. Second, there is still opposition by those who are against the Ratner dream of development. Lastly, if the NBA has any integrity, James would be ineligible to sign with the Nets, as he has been constantly hanging out with the drug dealer who owns a part of the team. If that does not violate the tampering policy, then what does?
