Universe Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Andrei Kirilenko in! On his blog, Mikhail Prokhorov confirms he is in serious negotiations with the Nets to finance Barclays Center and gain control of the team. In return for financing the arena, Prokhorov wants control for “a symbolic price”–probably $1. The Russian billionaire also wants to be able to use the Nets to train Russia’s basketball players and place “Russia’s leading coaches and managers in the NBA.” He added he expects negotiations to “move forward.” Meanwhile scrutiny of the deal continues. http://www.netsdaily.com/?p=8739 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teletopez Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 Prokhorov gets 80% of the team, and 45% of the arena. It seems like the Nets didn't hesitate to accept the offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Universe Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 I don't know which team is the poorest but I know it's not the Nets for once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klashnekoff Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 He meant the Nets were the poorest (among) and now our obviously top 5 in richest. We could sign Lebron to the biggest contract ever issued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
