SAS is trying to influence raising the price so LeBron canโt buy it ๐๐๐

Nah itโs where the market is. Unfortunately Bron just doesnโt have a shot at majority ownership

@jamiethomas5849 the Celtics sold for 6 Billion last August. One of the biggest teams in basketball. Now youโre telling me an expansion team is worth 10 billion?lol only teams worth more than Celtics are Warriors Lakers and Knick they are worth 10 billion not an expansion team lol

@sam@sammymorales6838Bron canโt afford $6 billion. Not even as low as $3 billion
@TRWSports773
March 16, 2026 at 5:10 pm
@sammymorales6838 thereโs a thing called a new franchise fee. All the owners get paid because youโre going to be reducing their share.

โโ@jamiethomas5849 meh, its not like its impossible. With the money lebron already has plus the super group im sure he would put together. Then you get into investors and private equity firms so on and so forth the avenues open up quickly when youre a billionaire.
At the very least he can become a controlling owner ( e.g lacob with gsw )
Plus we already know rich Paul has been out and about greasing all the European and middle Eastern people with money for the last few years prepping for this moment.

1. Sonics are coming back. Billy Simmons confirmed it.
2. First order of business is Gary Payton Sonic Booming SAS straight to Hell.

@WolfPackNV I think he is. Thatโs where the long $ is. His literal legacy is that.

It should be Seattle AND Vancouver.
Seattle isnโt the only NBA city to be screwed over in the 2000โs.
@KenBarlow2000
March 16, 2026 at 2:24 pm
Vancouver always were useless and players never wanted to play there
@jaydurant3048
March 16, 2026 at 2:32 pm
@KenBarlow2000 thatโs on ownership and management for having an inept franchise.
Not on the fans.
Players wouldnโt have felt that way if the organisation was even 1/2 decent
@jaydurant3048
March 16, 2026 at 2:16 pm
Should be Seattle AND Vancouver!

I guarantee both teams will be built as everyone wants the sonics back and a majority of people are on board for the vegas expansion team so adam silver & the league will find a way to make both teams happen

Just added to the trillion dollar debt you wonโt even notice it
@Tripledubsports
March 16, 2026 at 2:46 pm
Not happening. That would mean 2 brand new teams are worth more than the Warriors, Lakers and Celtics.
@InfiniteYouBookWilliam
March 16, 2026 at 3:06 pm
Thatโs the only interesting part. The buy-in and the value could be different. The buy-in could be an all-inclusive price for the overall product. Infrastructure, uniforms, staff, etc. I could be wrong.
@nickels9254
March 16, 2026 at 3:23 pm
Not putting the Knicks on that list is atrocious. Knicks are worth more than the Celtics.
@Tripledubsports
March 16, 2026 at 3:31 pm
@nickels9254it wasnโt meat to slight the knicks, I was just giving examples
@Tripledubsports
March 16, 2026 at 3:32 pm
@InfiniteYouBookWilliamtrue. Iโm guessing the value of all teams are going to go up by the time the expansion happens so itโll probably be a normal price tag.

More like each team is 5 Billion each
The Celtics a Top 5 Org sold for 6 Lakers sold for 10 The new teams will be a net negative for the next 5-10 year maybe less for lost vegas because its a big market but definitely not worth 10 billion stephen A trying to up the price so bron can get in

If they got $20 combined for the two franchises, each of the existing 30 franchises would get $666.7Mโฆ thatโs wild
$16 billion seems more realistic

Vegas getting a team right after the FBI investigation for rigged poker games is a red flag all day. But it’s going to make white men rich so nothing will be done. ๐
