On Friday, Nets/Markowitz host "Brooklyn's Backcourt" celebration at Borough Hall Plaza

Atlantic Yards Report

Meanwhile, a few blocks away, Brett Yormark, Marty Markowitz and friends will be testing the tolerance of Brooklynites for nonsensical blather.

Deron Williams and Joe Johnson may be new, but they are, according to a press release, "Brooklyn's Backcourt," and Borough President Marty Markowitz is wasting no time in welcoming them at 1 pm Friday.

For the record, he never held a celebration for the community plaintiffs who won an uphill battle in a lawsuit against developer Forest City Ratner and the Empire State Development Corporation.
