Nets official to Record: Brooklyn move won't happen

The leaks coming out of the basketball firmament just keep coming. Ian O'Connor, a columnist for the Bergen Record, writes that the Nets will stay in New Jersey, quoting Gov. Jon Corzine and finding a team official:
One longtime Netsā€™ official, a man whoā€™s made big management decisions in the past, is telling people that the move to Brooklyn will never, ever happen. "Bruce just wonā€™t end up with the money to do it," the official said. "Forget it."


O'Connor doesn't predict whether they would stay in the Meadowlands or move to Newark. Still, he concludes:
What are the chances of a second marriage between [superfan Frank] Capece and the Nets by 2010?

Better than the teamā€™s chances of landing the eighth playoff seed next spring.
