Report: Nets to make Krzyzewski rich offer
As coach Mike Krzyzewski prepares to go after his fourth NCAA title at Duke, a report out of New Jersey this morning says the New Jersey Nets are prepared to offer him a fortune to leave the Blue Devils.

Citing unnamed sources, The Bergen Record reports that incoming Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov will offer Krzyzewski between $12 million and $15 million to be the team’s head coach and perhaps its general manager.

Krzyzewski said last summer that he will spend the remainder of his coaching career at Duke. When reports of the Nets’ interest in him surfaced earlier this season, Krzyzewski downplayed them and said he hadn’t been contacted by the team or its owner.

1. The Lakers threw money at him a few years back. No dice.
I'm sure he'd much rather coach the Nets, though.
