NetsDaily Off-Season Report #5

NetsDaily

Some wishful thinking from the New Jersey/Brooklyn Nets fantasy site.

There's "Bark", a new hot dog place near Barclays Center where Billy King, Bobby Marks, Bruce Ratner and Brook Lopez dined before checking out the arena. No one's saying there's a connection and "Bark" is a perfectly reasonable name for a neat little restaurant featuring hot dogs, but that arena right around the corner could wind up being known as "The Barc" or even "The Bark" ... as in "Who Let the Dogs Out?" There's also the Best Western Arena Hotel, down Atlantic Avenue. It advertises itself as close to "the NBA Barclay Arena." And we haven't even mentioned the (at least) three sports bars planned for the streets around the arena.

NoLandGrab: And locals are almost as thrilled about those sports bars as they are about the arena.
