I figure Jason Smith is the first guy the Hornets resign to an extension now.

Mike Llitch owns The Tigers and Red Wings, he was interested in the pistons until he looked at their books lol.

Magic Johnson owns the Dodgers and Los Angeles.
Aubrey McClendon owns the Thunder and Oklahoma City.
And the second part scares the shit out of me.

And The Celtics and 76ers.
Does that make Michael Jordan POTUS then?

Why? It's a terrible market and the team loses a lot of money.

Random question: What would you do if the Pohlads or Taylor bought the Vikings?

It's $28 million more than what the league paid for it and I'd imagine they wanted to get that mess off of their hands after the CP3 fiasco and losing all that money. I'd imagine they are totally happy with this.
Yeah I think when the Griz were at rock bottom the asking price was $300million.

Would it really be any different than the Wilfs running the team?
It's fair to say I don't follow baseball, but I think the ownership for all the Minnesota teams is pretty poor, really. Wild haven't made the playoffs since Leipold bought them, either.

Haven't followed the Vikes in a while but Zygoi is a better owner than Taylor or Pohlad, I think. He's very willing to spend. The Pohlads are probably worse than Taylor.
Go MN sports.

Minnesota Lynx are the defending WNBA champions.

Jim Rome is on point. He is saying that Bron is doing everything he possibly can for this Heat team and Wade and the rest of the crew is letting him down. Exactly. Bron is trying his best but King Douche is putting a kibosh on that team's success.

The Magic beat Miami only a month ago?
Sigh those were the days.

That's true, Glen Taylor's been vindicated.
Although not really. He runs the Lynx just like the Wolves (nepotism!), they just won the lottery, no?
All of this Heat drama just astounds me because if Wade and Bosh came over to the Bulls, they would just steamroll the league.
Thibs as coach.
Clearly defined roles:
Rose - PG (Rose only became hero-ball shot taker because he was forced into that role the last 3 years)
Wade - SG - Takes final shots
Deng - Defender and spot up shooter
Bosh - Somewhat inside offense
Noah - Inside Defense
We still would have Taj Gibson and Omer Asik. We'd only be short the backcourt bench a bit.
Sheesh.

Yeah they got Maya Moore. That team is stacked.
They ended up with the #3 pick too this year. Draft on in a couple days on ESPN!
Aren't there any WNBA fans here? Whos making the thread for the new WNBA season starting in a couple weeks?

But realize then you and your crew would be the most despised of Best GAF and be the glue that attracts the TripU's.

Thank god Miami's falling back to the pack a bit, and the Czzzz and Pacers look fairly formidable.
East Playoffs should at least be watchable now, rather than waiting for the inevitable Chicago-Miami WCF.

It'd be worth the rings. We also wouldn't be half as despised because Rose wasn't "MVP SUPERSTAR" until after "The Decision". He was just an up and coming all-star.

I don't know if I have ever got more joy out of something in life as I do when the Heat lose.
I don't care for Dallas, yet I cried last year when they beat Miami. I shed tears of joy, and it felt so good.
I hope that this years playoffs will give me more joy and tears.

Why? Tank mode all season is so shameless. Would rather see somebody like the Cavaliers win it who actually tried to win some games this year.
I'm only thinking of DY.
The most "deserving" team is probably the Cavs. If they get Davis to go alongside Irving, that's gonna be fierce for years to come.

I wonder if Cavs fans would feel it was worth the Lebron drama to get Irving and Davis.

You don't enjoy watching the inevitable implosion of the New York Knicks?
He's saving that move for the playoffs.

LOL. It got dwight howard watery in the mouth after they beat bulls and miami, i think over the span of a week, and probably a big reason he decided to stay. I'm betting he's kicking himself right now.

With the Wolves pick. The Hornets own pick will be like 4.

The team with the best odds for #1 pick last won in 04 (Dwight) and since the lottery began have only gotten the first pick 4 times (14% win percentage).
The 2nd worst team has won as frequently as the worst.
Historically The 5th worst team has gotten the pick most frequently (5 times or 18%) and last time was Wall. The 3rd worst has gotten it the same amount of times, but not since 01 have they won.
Being the 4th worst team seems to be a curse seeing as the 1st pick has gone to them only once back in 87(Robinson). 3% win percentage.
But seeing how lottos work, anyone could get that pick really. The 11th worst team even won back in 93 (Webber).

I would say that your life is pretty shitty then

Lawl at you for thinking Dwight's exit strategy was predicated around joining a winning team

It sometimes seems fishy but I guess that there is a relatively small sample size. I think the way they do the lotto (only using 14 balls) is pretty cool
You can't use statistics to predict something that's purely random, unless you believe in conspiracy theory.
In which case the Hornets will definitely get the #1 pick.
Also what coffeejanitor said. The sample size is too small.
