Ain't nobody throwing no one under the bus. He fronted like he had some decent stake in ownership when he didn't.

To be fair his ownership stake is not what the original post was referring to. Fam was just tryna shyt on Jay money in general.

I know that.

These Jay and Nets ownership jokes ain't going nowhere

 

[KamaroJonez]

Nets worth 1.8 billion he probably want atleast 875 million.

You worship celebrities, I don't. I acknowledge them as people. Most people don't, including yourself. Which is why you see nothing wrong treating them and talking about them like their corporations instead of human beings.

Insulting them is as much as celebrity worship as praising them is. Both sides buy into the idea of celebrity.

I'm on neither side. Funny you think even acknowledging that celebrities are human beings is considered celebrity worship. It speaks to how you view them.

So you equate me calling out Jay Z for overhyping his 0.1% ownership stake in a basketball team, just to be the face of gentrification in Harlem/Brooklyn with dehumanizing him?

It's clear you're overly sensitive when your idol Jay Z is being rightfully criticized. Real ordinary black people were negatively affected by this so called "deal" this clown made and its pathetic that you'd be willing to overlook that type of treachery simply because the nikka can rhyme on a hot beat.

fukk that and fukk Jay Z.

[Ethnic Vagina Finder]

He already sold the Nets future away by giving away all of those first round draft picks. He might as well keep selling.

 

[Floyd Pinkerton]

They're worth what -- 1.4 mil? -- simply due to location. Otherwise, what a terrible franchise. Barclays sucks and your team can't improve for 4 years.

Putin take away his billions?

breh. Was just reading this on Netsdaily.

Prokhorov now has more of his assets in the United States. Prokhorov has been unloading his assets in Russia

Thinking "interesting, looks like Putin might not have got him". Then I got to the next paragraph.

The sales drive in Moscow started a year ago this week after Russian authorities raided the offices of his main holding company, ONEXIM, then followed up with raids on RBC and Renaissance. At the time, sources close to RBC told Reuters the searches were prompted by Kremlin anger at the revelations it published, specifically about the finances of President Vladimir Putin’s daughter. The Kremlin has denied any link, claiming they were part of tax investigations.

How liquid is Jay-Z though?

Even if he has a net worth in the 300M range, NBA teams cost a lot.
Based on this Forbes article the Nets are valued at 1.8 billion.

It would take a fairly big team of investors with Jay to buy the team.
Being a minority owner is possible though.
