The Nets had a series of bad seasons in an antiquated gym. No one came to games. Their owner was going broke. Then, a new owner arrived. He first moved the team to a temporary home, then a new arena.

And the best part: Within a few years, the Nets traded for one of the game's great players and won two ABA titles in three years.
