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

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

    Well this is some news. I would be shocked if the team moves. I'd also be shocked if Cronin and Billups last their contracts

    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.

    expansion means adding to the names that exist. Not moving a team and having the same amount of teams

    Great news, after 30 plus years the franchise will be rid of Bert Kolde!

    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 league has no doubt already vetted interested parties - this timing isn't random.

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