Celtics sold for $6.1 billion and they don't even own the arena they play in. I wonder what the all in number would be for Ted to sell, if he ever decided to go that route?

Per Forbes, Caps are worth $1.6 billion, Wizards are worth $4.1 billion and the Mystics are worth $80 million. That's $5.8 billion. I imagine he gets $6 billion+ when factoring in the arenas.

Why are the Grizzlies firing their coach right before the playoffs, what’s the problem?

Now Denver fires the coach and GM. Crazy. I could see the Phoenix job opening up and there might be a surprising firing or two if some teams don't advance. We're probably a year away from hiring someone like Jenkins but I'd take the shot if I were Winger and Dawkins.

Apparently Malone didn’t want to play young players. Not a great match for a developing team.

Id rather just stay the course we aren't ready and Malone just got fired over not wanting to play young players and alienating them. No thanks.

For the time being, I think Keefe is doing a reasonable job.

I’d be on board with Jenkins. The Grizz young players developed nicely. But Keefe is doing a solid job of keeping the young players focused and positive in a really tough spot. So I’m not eager to switch while we are still developing and tanking.

Keefe should not be in any way in the hot seat.

PHX is just a disaster. Their owner must not care at all about blowing money, they're paying 3 (?) coaches' salaries now?

Its really bad. They really should ship out KD and Booker utilizing Houston to get picks back, but they wont.
Their next best idea if they keep Booker is to move KD for 2 year contracts and aim for a low seed. Then hope to strike gold in summer of 27 with only Booker on the books.
I have to think KD and Miami are made for each other. Miami now has pick 11 & 18 and has to trade their 2026 & 28 picks unprotected, so they need a 3- year run. Something like Wiggins, Rozier, pick for KD is solid starting framework. Suns get decent role players on short deals and pick, while the Heat essentially turn Butler into KD.
