Architect of Nets arena replaced (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

The owner of the New Jersey Nets has replaced the architect of a pricey planned arena in Brooklyn.

The project has been delayed by the economic downturn, years of opposition lawsuits and the near $1 billion price of the Frank Gehry-designed arena.
