For the first time in basketball history New Yorkers are divided. Monday night brought about the very first game of the now two New York NBA hometown rivals, the Brooklyn Nets vs. The New York Knicks. Part Nets owner Jay Z and wife Beyonce were certainly among fans sitting court side as they watched history in the making.
The Nets won by the way. Although the game was a very intense one with scores neck and neck it was during the overtime when the Nets took the lead. They won 96 to Knicks, 89.
