> Farewell to Milton Lee
> Earlier this week, Milton Lee left the Nets. He had been GM of minor league operations, running the Springfield Armor for the past two years.  Now, without a minor league affiliate --and not likely to even use the D-League-- there was no room for him.  He was also a confidante of Jason Kidd.
> Lee was the first Nets employee in the Prokhorov era. Chris Charlier, who Prokhorov put in charge of the Nets acquisition, knew Lee from their days at the Wharton School of Business at Penn.  Charlier was familiar with Lee's basketball background, which included being an intern for the 1992 Dream Team. So, quietly, the Nets hired Lee as a consultant.  He jokes that when he was hired, he thought it was a bit of a lark. He thought the chances of Team Prokhorov succeeding were no better than one percent.  He became the vice-president of ONEXIM Sports and Entertainment. For a while, he was a member of the board of directors of both the Brooklyn Nets and Barclay’s Center. 
> 
> As Team Prokhorov set up shop, he was given a few early assignments as director of basketball operations. He upgraded the statistics department, working off his experience on Wall Street. But truth be told, no one in the Nets was (or is) that much of a stats nut.  He was put in charge of the "Nets campus" at Barclays, the locker room etc., producing a world-class facility within a facility. He was tasked with a lot of jobs, like managing the Nets bid for the 2015 All-Star Game and the site search for the new practice facility.
> And he helped run the NBA Draft Combine for years, organizing the combine and running workouts.  But he spent most of his time on the Armor and if the team hadn't been sold, the Nets affiliate would have had the first overall pick in the D-League draft and D-League rights to nine players with NBA experience. Unfortunately, the owners of the Armor sold to a group of Michigan businessmen who moved the team to Grand Rapids. The picks and the rights went with them and the Nets have doubts about the D-League right now.
> Milt's professionalism was always evident, as was his work ethic. He was asked to get things done and he did. We wish him well
