For years, the Nets have been bringing high-end customers to their Barclays Center showroom atop Bruce Ratner's New York Times building. There, the prospects are treated to a mock-up of a suite, complete with virtual views of the arena from any seat. Now, the Nets are taking their show(room) on the road.
They've have outfitted a 40-foot trailer to replicate the showroom, complete with two flat screen monitors that can project the virtual views, as well as hardwood floors, a hoop that can be set up outside, a rooftop deejay both and even a small Nets store ...of sorts. Billy King and Boro President Marty Markowitz will unveil the "Experience" Tuesday at Borough Hall. One reason for a mobile marketing tool: the Nets are about to start marketing loge seat packages to small businesses.
Meanwhile, critics rolled out their own "experience" Saturday outside the Barclays Center. Called "Occupy Brooklyn" the protest featured Daniel Goldstein. Construction continued.

My favorite team is two seasons away from winning 12 games.
I post on a fansite and obsess about trades and FA signings that never come to fruition, save the ones that no one sees coming.
My team made back-to-back trips to the finals, and then their best players were sent away so that the owner could move the team out of state to a city that already has an NBA team.
I am the 99%

Danny craves more attention.
Of course attention yields money. At least it did last time for Danny boy.

He just want to be distracted...
…so he can forget about all of his neighbors’ complaints about the construction he’s doing to his own place.

I could tell why the statements you keep on saying against DG are false, but to people like you, it’s sort of like trying to get the Muslim Brotherhood to accept Isael and existing nation, and we know how that works.
