    I second this sentiment.

    But, I'm not sure he's serious about changing the name. He could be talking out his ass.

    Prokhorov is now #1 on my list of NBA owners most likely to bang Lebron's mom.

    Is there anyone more likely out there?

    The Nets might have the worst name in sports. It's about time.

    This guy shouldnt own an NBA team
    the english premier league opened up to foreign investors and has seen nothing but trouble since then ..
    The guy will be firing coaches .. critizing players .. spen cash like its running out of style ..
    He'll fire at least 3 coaches in 5 years .. and they'll never win a championship with him
    In football a new rich owner would inject 70-120 mil to buy new players
    But in the NBA such radical change cant be achieved in a short time ..
    It takes pateince

    I hope this guy understands that you can't go out and buy the best players available ala Roman Abramovich and his Chelsea F.C.
