02:51 PM ET 10.31 | "Hello, Brooklyn!" will have to wait a couple days. The aftermath of Superstorm Sandy has forced the cancellation of Thursday's Barclays Center season opener between the Brooklyn Nets and New York Knicks, Nets GM Billy King confirmed. It remains unclear when and if the game will be made up, but the Knicks play at home on Friday and the Nets play at home on Saturday, so it certainly won't be in the near future. As of now, both of those games will take place as scheduled.

We got hit hard. This is probably best.

I hope you and everyone up there are safe and make it through this with minimal troubles.

Manhattan is in worse shape. You can't play in Brooklyn on Thursday but you can play in Manhattan on Friday?

Stop it. You're a Sixers fan.

i gave too much respect last year and said that the knicks and celtics would be the cream of the atlantic.

the sixers are younger and better than last year. knicks/brooklyn will fight it out for 3rd in the atlantic.
