Mikhail D. Prokhorov, Running for Russian Presidency, Do You Really Have Time for the Nets?

The Nets newest owner, billionaire , playboy Mikhail D. Prokhorov now apparently has political ambitions. He has thrown his hat into the ring to challenge Putin for the Russian Presidency . Maybe he feels if becomes President he can better protect his billions....Who knows ? His candidacy has to be considered (under all the circumstances ) a long shot at best . Maybe he has too much time on his hands?
So are the Nets really in his future ? Yes, he got Deron Williams . They're moving to Brooklyn. He's been trying to get Dwight Howard and simply put a respectable product on the floor.
But, can you imagine this scenario ? Prokhorov is elected President . The Russian people are in full-scale revolt. The Presidential Palace is being stormed ...
Prokhorov then gets on the Presidential loudspeaker addressing a million crazed revolutionaries .
" I have to leave for the NBA All Star Game tonight , can we pick up this revolution stuff in a week or two"?
