Maybe the new Russian owner of the Nets can talk Putin into killing Dolan, KGB style.

Why would he do that? The best thing that could happen for the Nets is that Dolan continues to own the Knicks.

An olive branch for battered NY area fans?

He would be better off if both teams were good and could start some sort of rivalry. The Knicks will never be good as long as Dolan owns them.

Absolutely on both counts. With the Nets going to Brooklyn and eventually changing their names, it will be a brand new organization/team for New York fans to root for. Plus even though the were right across the river, the Nets are so obscure that there really has never been a fierce rivalry with the Knicks. I really believe that there are many Knicks fan (and rangers fans for that matter) that are just tried of the incompetent management of the 2 teams that play at the garden. At least now the NBA fans will have a decent alternitive.
