The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

[rolaholic]

Gotta be the first time I've ever seen a team go on sale immediately after winning a chip

Might as well sell high I guess

 

[lovehateself]

If Fenway group gets involved, lbg will have to sell his %

running from the second apron grind

 

[antidope]

Don't sell to Elon Musk. Thanks.

 

[getback]

Yeah hopefully FSG looks the other way

Most fascinating about the C's sale is wondering if the league is ready and willing to block let's say a gulf oil monarchy ownership group...

Those are some of the rare groups in the whole world that could actually afford a franchise like the Celtics

Wyc Grousbeck bought the team for $360 million in 2002 and just delivered the franchise's second championship during his tenure—a league-record 18th title.

Worth 4-5B today. Great come up.

running from the second apron grind

100% getting ahead to avoiding or passing the buck for exactly what was outlined a few posts up

 

[smedroc]

Damn OKC got Hartenstein

They're ready to make a run.

Shame Russ can't sign there for the min... The vibes would be crazy.

Could definitely see them coming off Liverpool or the Penguins in favor of getting a crown jewel with the C's.

They were shopping the former on the market like a year and a half ago already

New-aged hardline conservative Elon sounds like an ideal fit.

Celtics ownership getting their Bob Myers on. Let someone else be the villain.

Don't think he cares too much tbh sitting on 2 chips but man, the 2020 Raps are one of the biggest what ifs in recent memory

Definitely think they would've gone B2B, bubble would've made me even more bullish about their repeat chances.

Bob Myers really is a savant man

LBJ Jokic

basketball geniuses who want Westbrook over KCP.


nuggets better ignore Nikola.

 

[N41D]

Cuban pretty well admitted as much...

Said media companies all over the place are going belly up and/or consolidating like crazy and as a result the league is shifting away from a media rights empire towards a real estate/property (and gambling) business...

Russ off the bench I like though.

Wyc definitely doesn’t have crazy money like some of these other owners so I get it. Probably the best possible chance to cash out.

Some big money dude gets a team coming off a chip that is fully equipped to win more with everyone locked up contractually. You just gotta be willing to foot the bill
