As it turns out, everything sounds pretty badass when said with a Russian accent

Seriously, someone needs to hip Jeff Wilpon to this. New Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov doesn’t say anything overwhelmingly interesting in his video message to fans, but it all sounds confident and vaguely ominous.

I guess that has more to do with Hollywood than Prokhorov, but it helps that I know he kickboxes in his spare time and has confessed to paying bribes. It’s no small feat to buy into a team part-owned by Jay-Z and instantly become the shareholder with the most street cred.

Also, when asked today how he would be able to woo big-name free-agents, he said, “I have my own secrets.” I have no idea what that means, but it sounds awesome.

  1. I just love the fact that when he spoke to Francesa the first thing he asked was “where’s the Mad Dog?”

  2. Gotta love this guy. He is going to great for the NBA and more importantly, he is going to be great for us NETS FANS!
