This guy - no clue who he is - seems to think the odds of expansion are iffy, at best. Local tv rights falling apart seems to be what could make the owners decide to expand for quick cash. How old is the Rose Garden?
Apparently if there is more than 6 No votes then they won’t even explore expansion until the next bargaining agreement or something. Could be past 2030. James Dolan is an open NO vote. I know he sucks but if he has any friends out there we’re fucked. They’re likely gone and fuck that league forever
The new 10-year tv deal starts next season. So, if the owners want to LIPO and collect all the money without sharing it with two new mouths, it'd be untli 2036.
I don't think the NBA will ever be back in Seattle unless Portland has a population collapse. Entirely possible based on how things are going there. TITTT.
Let’s do like the LA Rams and wait 12 more years for the soups to return. Only way I watch the players in person is if I have chance to drive to the 2028 Olympic. Easily my favorite games because Carter boycotted 1980 which was lame as a sports fan and the athletes that weren’t able to live their dream.

Adam silver threw out a lot more 50/50 bullshit about expansion again last week and of course guys like Softy and Doog Fain lapped it up
