Brooklyn Nets fan dissed by de Blasio invites mayor to a game

A Brooklyn Nets fan who was dissed by a snarky Mayor de Blasio over the team’s performance says he has the perfect way for Hizzoner to make amends — come to a game with him.

“At this point, he needs to redeem himself — he should be right in front where the team can look him in the eye,’’ Queens resident Edwin Williams said of de Blasio, who grew up rooting for the Boston Celtics.

De Blasio landed in hot water earlier this month when Williams was trying to ask him a question about local traffic safety during a town-hall meeting in Belle Harbor — and the mayor interrupted him to rib him about why he was wearing a Nets jacket, considering the local NBA franchise has been among the league’s worst teams the past few seasons.
