    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"They've done a lot of financial analysis that shows a one-team arena, a hockey arena, could work," said Richard Monteilh, Newark's business administrator. The study "shows a single-team arena would throw off all sorts of benefits, not as many benefits as if there was the Nets. But there is a good notion this could be a viable operation for Newark."

    A new home in Newark for the Devils is anything but certain, but there was at least one YankeeNets executive last night who was convinced the Nets would be moving east of the Brooklyn Bridge.

    "At this point," the company executive said, "Brooklyn gets the Nets."</div>

    This comes a day after the group who had the highest bid on the Nets dropped out because the YankeeNets company was taking too long on their decision for whether to release the Nets or not. Looks like this certain group lucked out.

    That's what I initially heard, if the Nets are moved then Kidd will demand a trade. Quite a predicament for whomever wants to buy the Nets.

    Kidd should of signed in S.A in the off season but he went against it.His loss really...I highly doubt he gets traded.He should of knew there was a good chance the Nets would be moved.

    Kidd said he is willing to go to brooklyn,he doesnt want to go to long Island,thats the other possible place the Nets might moved too. But niether looks like its going to happen now because the group that was interested in buying the Nets is starting to back off the deal. I guess it leaves the door open for J Hova,but that wont happen either. So the Nets are staying put for a while until a serious bider comes along.
