I dont understand why they don't just sell a majority of the team and remain a minority owner. They can still have their courtside seats, they can still participate in all team functions, but they'd be in much better financial shape and can focus on running their actual ventures.

Give the Maloofs 2% ownership of the Kings and call it a day.

these goofs have huge egos, no matter how much sense it makes to sell and move on their own egos wont allow it. there assets basically have to be ripped away from them in order for them to move on ie the palms.

This about sums it up.

How pissed off must Pera be that these losers wouldn't sell a team in his own back yard and he had to buy one in Memphis?

Maybe Stern can broker a trade.

"I think we're working hard to eradicate the small-market designation," Stern said. "When Green Bay is in the Super Bowl with Pittsburgh or Indianapolis, nobody says, 'Oh my, a small-market team,' because the rules that they have allow everyone to compete. And that's what we now have under our new collective bargaining agreement. It's not about the market size. It's not about the money. It's about the management. ... Each of our teams has been put together in a different way under our rules."

Because no one cares about minority owners. When the media refers to the owners of a team, they only talk about the majority.
