Exceedingly Quotable Nets Owner Mikhail Prokhorov Makes An Appearance
You're worried about the Nets. I'm worried about the Nets. Everybody's worried about the Nets. But owner Mikhail Prokhorov is here to let us all know that we don't need to worry about the Nets.

Don't be worried about reports swirling that the Nets are for sale:
Don't be worried that coach Jason Kidd left after just one season to join the cellar-dwelling Milwaukee Bucks:
