Oh boy Jerry..... this wait is unbearable!

expansion for Seattle? Maloofs and Vivek coming to an agreement already???

This vote was expected, but I can't imagine what else could have come out of these meetings

 

[mister916]

Too many things got on not enough attention span

Breaking: Final score: 22-8.22 NBA owners say no to relocating Kings while 8 ok the move.

wow thats alot closer than I thought it'd be! 

granted, one of those yes votes are from the Maloofs but still

 

[mister916]

I'm not sure if that's confirmed yet but that's unsettling.

 

[dmbrhs]

I'm guessing Paul Allen was one of the votes to approve a move. After that, who knows, especially with that many in favor (I didn't think it'd be 8 ).

 

[Deleted member 38182]

its coming from the same guy who basically accused the NBA of lying about the unanimous 7-0 recommendation vote... so ya I wouldn't put too much into that yet

 

[Deleted member 38182]

Stern up now! confirms the 22-8

 

[mister916]

I'm so giddy right now

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Stern says that they will try to help facilitate a deal between the Maloofs and the Ranadive group within the next 24-48 hours.

Gotta clear that hurdle, correct?

I thought it'd be only 4-5 tops...

my guesses on the Yes votes are Maloofs, Allen, Cuban, Grousbeck, Dolan, Devos,not sure who the other 2 could be

 

[mister916]

Yup, but it'll happen.

 

[thedeek]

Did he just say that the Maloofs are good for Sacramento.

Yep

Just trying to butter them up so they can get this sale done, no more BS games

KJ has been doing the same thing 

 

[dmbrhs]

Did he just say that the Maloofs are good for Sacramento.

He said "overall" they've been good to the NBA in Sacramento (or something to that effect).
