3/4 of a billion dollars in private money? For the Kings? And I thought half a billion was a head scratcher. Assuming said money is on a solid foundation and the ownership group checks out the NBA has a choice to make. Ultimately it’s what’s best for the NBA in the long term. Still think in that scenario that Seattle is the better option but I thought that comparing Seattle to OKC.

Art, was there that clause in the Sonics’ owners’ deals, where a minority owner had FROR to purchase them 7 years ago? If not, why not? If so, why didn’t anyone ‘pop’ for them them?
