Jay-Z wants Jersey

Sun Jan 04, 2004 5:45 am

I hope this hasn't been posted yet. I searched but couldnt find anything on it so...

Well this was first around the end of November, but I just watched an interview. Jay-Z(Famous Rapper in case you dont know) said he wants to bid on the New Jersey Nets. He wants to gain ownership of them and move them back to New York in the Bronx. He said that he'd keep K-Mart, JKidd, and RJ. He said that they are the 'core group'.

It seams the Nets players would like a new arena to play in.

At the moment, Martin and Kidd play in the perennially dead and dilapidated Meadowlands Arena, where a game was delayed last month because of a leak in the roof.

Kidd might want a new building, but didn't he say that he didn't want the team to move?

Jay-Z wants to buy the Nets? HA! Just check my thread called "The NBA in recent weeks"! I knew this was comming :lol:

Jay-Z can have the Nets, so long as Beyonce is used as a promotional tool!

If things dont go well with the team's selling or a new stadium, maybe we could hear something about the Nets moving to New York.

I cant see that happening. They couldve moved along time ago, so why do it now? Maybe the nets should merge with the knicks? :crazy:

Jay Z should concentrate on one thing at a time, like making a decent album that has good lyrics and not complete shit

Didnt he retire from rap?

I dont know. He doesnt want to move-well, his wife doesnt want to move. Thats why he's not in San Antonio right now. But New York isnt that far away from Jersey.


Didnt he retire from rap?


Yep. He'll probably to a collaboration or 2 with another artist at some point of time.

He is. He's moving on now. He may have to go back to rap after paying 300 million dollars for the nets.

well bout freakin time.........how the hell did he stay rappin 4 long? and what fool bought his CD's? (dont answer that one)

Mon Jan 05, 2004 1:59 am

Yeah, seriously. New York isn't THAT far away. The guy can use his 120 million dollar salary to easily afford a new house.

:D I wont answer that one.

So would the salary cap. Also P.Diddy wants the knicks. It'd be funny seeing Jay-Z and Puffy sitting next to eachother as co-owners of the New York Neterbockers(?).

Then they should also rename the city...P.Diddy and Jay-Z pay to president so they can rename NYC for their new team so it would be called New Jerk Neterbockers :lol:

:lol: What a stupid name. What the hell is a knickerbocker anyayz?

How about the New York police department? If all this goes down they'll be seeing more action then the basketball players.

ANd how about Jay-Z and Diddy saying 'screw reebok' and start making the jerseys by rocawear and sean john. :D Man, rappers could rule everything in the NBA.
