A fan wore a paper bag over his head during the loss of the players with nets jerseys. Chief executive argued with the fan and said he had no regrets about his behaviour.
CEO Brett Yormack said in a statement Tuesday he wanted to let the fan know he didn’t agree with the way he was expressing his opinion. Yormark approached the fan during a 99-89 loss to Miami on Monday night. He asked why he was wearing the bag. When the fan told him because the Nets were so good, Yormark exchanged words and pointed a finger at him. The fan held up his tickets, and Yormark walked away.
The nets are on the edge of the record for fewest wins in an NBA season. Yormack said despite the frustrations he will continue to stand up for the organization.
