A CASE TO STAY THE COURSE FOR THE NETS
NetsAreScorching
by Mark Ginocchio
It’s difficult to advocate staying the course when the ship is sinking, but for the New Jersey Nets, it may be their best option.
...Of course, it’s possible that Kiki and company get slammed by the fan base and the media for doing nothing, and letting this season get further out of hand. There will be talk about all of the empty seats at the Izod Center, and how owner Bruce Ratner has put a lock on the team’s wallet until Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov presumably takes over. While there is some truth to these claims, it doesn’t change what the 2009-10 New Jersey Nets were all about headed into this season – riding out this storm with the promise of better times ahead.
NoLandGrab: Staying the course might be okay, if the Nets were planning to refund all the money season ticket holders have plunked down to watch what might be the worst team in NBA history. Which they're obviously not going to do.
