Not good timing considering the NBA wants to expand the league soon.

Fingers crossed anyone looking to buy the Blazers doesn’t move them…

I could see the sale going quickly, since the new owner of the Blazers would not only get the extra TV $$$, but $$ from the 2 new expansion teams.
 
Maybe Bert Kolde will buy the team, you never know.

tentative good news....I think

although the way the Vulcans have slow-walked so far, the sales process could drag on for 2-3 years

I'd think the Seattle mother-ship has known this was coming for a while now and it kind of makes the Cronin/Chauncey extensions look like attaboy rewards for being good soldiers
 
You guys think Phil Knight is still interested? If he is, this has to be great news for him

he may be still interested

but I was told by somebody who may know PK's thinking that he was pretty aggravated by the way Jody and Kolde responded to his offers

How old is Phil? 90? Not saying I wouldn’t love him to buy the Blazers. If he has the same passion for us as Oregon Football we are in good shape.

the problem is his family, and presumably the heirs, don't share his passion for sports

If anything this might motivate him to buy the team even more to piss them off

since yesterday was filled with conspiracy theories, here's mine:

it is no coincidence that this news lands the day after the Blazers dropped in the lottery

I agree. Jody was probably like “fuck this shit I could have gotten more if we landed cooper Flagg I’m finally outta here”
 
No matter who buys the team, they are not moving, that's for sure.

The league jumped through hoops to make sure the Kings wouldn't't leave Sacramento. The league is still dealing with no team in a major market like Seattle. Moving teams create bad feelings among the fans of a loyal city and scares other fans. It is bad for the NBA, bad juju, and bad for the brand.

I do know - he doesn't have the cash to do so.

I'm not worried if he's a couple percent owner or something. We saw what owning a couple percent got Mark Cuban with the Mavs. All control is with the owner that is the governor. No way Kolde can get to that spot.
