Mikhail Prokhorov Nets

[spobrocy1]

The Nets suck. Just because he's a billionaire doesn't mean he can automatically win an NBA championship.

[MrToiletbear]

the only man that can stop the nets from winning the championship is JAMES BOND!

[Gaffapediahus]

Hallo Nets fans NOW look at your man now back to me....

[TheSeyami]

I really hate those who post simmons!!!

[patsredsoxceltics100]

lol this sounds like a terrorist video requesting demands

[TheSeyami]

@patsredsoxceltics100

yes you are right, for the fuckers this video seems like that, for people like you that impolite fucker :Marc Cuban is perfect and either he is in the level fuckers means you....

and I think you should put this as your name : (jealous fucker) Hahahahah

[Julian24151]

Hes good.. its that fucking scumbag Jay-Z whos moving us to fucking brooklyn.!!!

[MishaKarasik]

Я как житель Нью Джерси только за....Нэтс вперед... Еще бы пару ё мобилей сюда... :)

[halcyon0830]

This guy is worth 14 BILLION DOLLARS, and he is a close friend of Putin.

[ACEREALZ]

player to come to team will get untold riches and 5 of my wives

[mavsboy1990]

knicks will win a ring before the nets ! go knicks baby!

[briancpatterson]

GET GALLO!

[Deepinher01]

Please calm down! We don't want you to get over excited about this purchase... Ha!!

[AtCw593]

Go Nets!!

[bballsuprstr91]

@perucha2 lol

[MegaFeofan]

opulence, i has it! championship in one year -- minimum! he means 2011? oh no that is too long. how about championship by christmas 2010?

[narapang6666]

THE NETS SUCK!!! HE IS A LYING BIATCH!!

[FATALMAMUKA]

Now we must all drink. Naaaazdorovie!

[Bucefal80]

Russian G0!!!

[LordOftheMind]

I thought he going to ask how fast a rabbit gets fucked before Avery gets fired again

[tobigforyou]

Nets for sale? I JUMP IN IT!

[RATheVigilante]

@perucha2 I wish your Nets well this season homie. At least your loyal to your team and not jumping on the Heat bandwagon with the rest of the dickriders!

[jcage007]

go russia go

[W316549]

He looks like the older version of Ivan Drago.

[MrKareemRuiz]

This man will do a good job with the Nets! He's got alot of cash

[RATheVigilante]

Mikhail Prokhorov is doing a great job so far. The Knicks got Amar'e and Travis Outlaw is the best he can do??? BTW- how does it feel Mikhail that # 2 Euro prospect & 7-1 Russian center Timofey Mozgov is signing with the NYK and NOT NJN?

[mashenka3030]

Прикольно! На заднем плане самовар ))))))))))))))))

[colintoal]

He's angry because John McLane broke his brother's neck in the Nakatomi Plaza

[Patriot18S]

@colintoal dude the guy was German.

[makavelithegoat]

Mikhail Prokhorov just leaked phone message to lebron james check my page now to listen

[MrKareemRuiz]

Go Nets!

[spobrocy]

This guy needs to look at his roster and his team's 12 wins last year before he starts saying stupid shit like this.

[atlprince88]

@spobrocy all his roster needs is one player to take them to the playoffs, they have the pieces....he's a billionaire for a reason, because he's smart, obviously he has been filled in of what he has or he would not have purchased the Nets.

[spobrocy]

@atlprince88 Yeah but dude the point is that winning a championship is TOUGH. It's not about how much money you have. It's about being able to evaluate talent. The salary cap eliminates a team's financial advantage (unlike baseball) In this business, you don't go gauranteeing championships, especially when you were the worst team in the league the year before. He is setting himself to fail when he does this. And what are you talking about they have the pieces. The pieces won 12 games last year.

[atlprince88]

@spobrocy so, yes which is why he paid people who know basketball to make him successful. Its the age old rule (hire people who are smarter than you) they want James. With that roster and Lebron the playoffs are definitely in reach. He's not guaranteeing, he's setting goals that may be lofty, but thats what successful people do. He would not invest if he did not believe in this project

[spobrocy]

@atlprince88 Yeah, well what do you think about Prokorov's comment now dude? The Nets completely struck out in free agency! Struck Out! They got nobody! And Why? Because they suck and none of these players want to go there! Which is exactly my point. Prokhorov may have a lot of money, but that doesn't always cut it in the NBA.

[robertaberntsen]

@spobrocy We got Travis Outlaw buddy. Traving MFing Outlaw!!!

[golobayj]

Did I hear a Moscow in there?

[MrKareemRuiz]

 Follow Nets!

[Mr46ser]

championship in one year? This guy doesn't understand how to build up a team.

[superflyfrenzy]

why should new jersey fans follow a team that is leaving them

[chilelargo]

i will break you 

[zinkerled]

Nobody, NOBODY will make fuck with Nets!! Is True.

[AllForTheGame]

this guy is so humble he has a billion dollars and he wears basic clothing and not even jewelery

[DrDDDuke]

Considering that he has a lot of money, when they move they should become the Brooklyn Benjamins!!!!

[MrKareemRuiz]

THIS GUY MIKHAIL PROKHOROV HAVE A LOT OF CASH!!!

[nedyken]

i love this video so much. It's like a hostage video. I love this guy.

[llloves2ball]

first i own z nets then i own z vorld

[YoungGame15]

@llloves2ball  LMFAOOOOOO

[xdebbiejang]

LOL. watch with closed captioning.

[DRGMW42]

Creepiest. Man. Ever.

[TheBlackConscience]

After this Video he turned into Colossus and fought crime with the X-men

[vandamage79]

money talks

[toocool816]

lebron and wade together, will bring playoffs now and championship within 3years

[DDas1995]

This guy just has too much enthusiasm for this video

[bjackbjack33]

Check out the outtakes from this shoot!

[bjackbjack33]

@bjackbjack33 Outtakes on my youtube page!

[douglovestheinternet]

i'm not sure why everyone thinks that an oligarch that exploited the fall of communism to essentially steal state industry away and literally make the poor starve is a cool guy

[carlo88moe]

um... not sure how he made a poor that was already starving starve... why is it that on every communist douchebag's video there's one ranking on him and extolling the greatness of capitalism, and for every capitalist douchebag's video there's a psuedo-communist, callow student scorning that guy....its like you cant win...in a way its understandable, both a rigged in some way, but maybe one's less fucked up. consider capitalists w a Churchill kinda maxim, "worst except for all the others",hehe:)

[anmix2008]

I'm not sure why everyone thinks that all oligarchs in Russia made their money illegally. Himself is a self-made person who invested a lot and made companies work. That's a difference, if you don't like facing a risk, don't do it. But don't think that all of them are just stealing. Listen to his interviews and get to know a person before blaming. They usually call it presumption of innocence...

[TranswarpXL]

Before Prokhorov bought the Nets I had no rooting interest for any team in the Eastern Conference, but now I do.

[RaidersRock]

I'm a Laker fan, but seriously, how can you not root for a guy as cool as him? I hope he's able to build the Nets into a contender.

[pitat886]

I have so much trust in this guy. I think he will build a great team.

[dozzz2468]

i don't think prokhorov realized how much no one respects Nets when he bought the team. like he obviously knew the Nets were a bad team but i don't think he realized that they SUCK

[TheBlackConscience]

@dozzz2468 He knew they sucked which is why he bought it so cheap

[anmix2008]

The point here is that this makes him stand out of a crowd. Nobody would buy because it's risky, but he did as he likes to control the risk which is why he is such a rich man. You may be walking down the street and buy an ice cream which sucks. But this is a tough guy. His intelligence will not make him make stupid purchases.

[chashollywood]

if we don't make playoff...i must break you.

[mahadragon]

@chashollywood That's funny as hell, thumbs up!

[TheSeyami]

@chashollywood

okay I believe you, I mean I know that you would really want to break him because of your stupid reasons or because you are jealous from his power, capital, fame or maybe from his height LOL but, the point is that you can not even eat his turd even in your dreams! because you can never meet him!! Ha Ha Ha

and all those 36 people who liked your comment are fucked and slight.......

[GeomighTNYC]

what if this billionaire just buys out the remaining 23 million capspace waives the contracts and buys like 4 free agents NBA , game over ! nets in finals i would Hate him!

[floeticdeath]

@GeomighTNYC

its called salary cap dude. it levels the playing ground.

[Jonstewart1234]

[kaherne17]

this is more like a DHARMA Initiative training film.

[doenjangnam]

This guy is awesome

[bjrguy]

simmons

[rweyh04]

Sounds nothing like a terrorist demand...... I kept waiting for it but he's just talking about his goals with a Russian accent.

[AlmondCountryVideos]

@rweyh04 simmons wasn't talking about what he was demanding, he just meant the tone and how he said the words made it sound like he was an actor portraying a terrorist in a terrible action movie, its cuz of the lack of sound, and his monotone style.

[clar3131]

hahhahhahhahahhhahahahhahahaha­ahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahhaa­hahahahhahaahahahahhahaahhahaa­hahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahah­ahha

[thenick1999]

[nyulaw12]

My name is Mikhail Prokhorov. I'm a entrepreneur from the Soviet Union. I fight all my life and I never lose. Soon I fight other teams in NBA, and the world will see this defeat. Soon, the whole world will know my name.

[jon41042]

Simmons, Simmons, Simmons!!

[youtoobization]

At least he has a very direct plan of making it to the playoff next year and winning a championship within five. Making the playoff in the East will only require winning 50% of the games so that can easily be accomplished. Winning a championship could take 5 years or 50 years because it does require some luck once you do have a championship caliber team.

[IBloodSweatTears]

Can you guy explain to me why the hell everyone is saying Simmons.. Lol?

[clownparade]

i wish he was my teams owner

[crunkky14]
