Worst Ownership in the NBA?

Which organization do you think has the worst ownership in the league? Personally, as a Hawks fan, I've grown to hate the Atlanta Spirit Group. Especially since recently, we treated Chillz terribly and told him to "go out and find a deal", and that just frustrated him to the point that he decided to sign with the Olympiakos team. Not to mention how bad they've treated Josh Smith. I'm so concerned about our ownership that I'm worried that we'd let Joe Johnson, Al Horford, Marvin Williams, and all the other young and upcoming players walk after their contract expires. It's as if ASG is just in it for the money-making business and have no care in the world about their team's performance on the court.

I hate to rag on organizations but I would agree with ATL.

It's far from easy running an NBA team to success, but the Hawks make it look down right impossible. Remember the Joe Johnson fiasco?

ATL's inability to make any moves is not good, but making bad moves is even worse.
I think with the money NYK has spent, to be profoundly unsuccessful makes them the worst ownership. Simply providing money is not enough -- you have to bring in the right people to make good use of it. Hopefully, the new additions can turn the franchise around.

^^^I gotta agree with Shrink on that the knicks has been horrid massive payrol and terrible records win the prize. But Zeke is gone now and Donnie Walsh should improve the knicks, but it's gonna take 4-5 yrs.
