Citing "senior NBA sources", Sports Business Journal reports Nets' CEO Brett Yormark "has agreed to terms and is close to signing a lengthy eight-year deal with the Nets". SBJ adds that while the Miami Dolphins may have been interested in Yormark, he wanted to stay with the Nets and engineer the move to Brooklyn. The deal "shows a long-term commitment there," said one league source quoted by SBJ.
