Always been a huge fan of Bill Simmons, even though he gives the term "over-writing" a whole new meaning. In tackling Mikhail Prokhorov, the New Jersey (soon to be Brooklyn) Nets new intriguing and mysterious Russian billionaire owner, he's spot on. I won't spoil too much, but some of the goods include The Sports Guy referring to Prokhorov as Mutant Russian Mark Cuban (MRMC), an outline of the Net's three stage plan to go from bottom-feeder to dynasty, and a professional produced video of the 6'8" Russian doing flips and spins on his jet ski that was paid for out of his own pocket. If that's not enough to get you over there, I don't know what it is.
