NBA: NETS CEO Brett Yormark Tells It Like It Really Is!

The Huffington Post
by Steve Ettlinger

At last we agree on something.

After years of hyperbole from developer and Nets' owner Bruce Ratner and his Nets chief, Brett Yormark, concerning the Nets' intended move to Brooklyn, CEO Yormark finally said something that is both entirely believable and astounding in an interview with Julian Garcia on DailyNews.com Wednesday:

"There was an incredible amount of uncertainty with Brooklyn, and through Bruce's incredible efforts, (it got done)," Yormark said. "And he deserves all the credit in the world. No one thought he was going to get it done."

Either he's lying, or he's very confused. I dunno, but the CEO who's been involved in all the planning and worries and effort to make this thing happen should know the score if anyone does. And he's the guy who kept saying it could and would and will happen. Phew.
