A couple of comments regarding the new quotes and news we've read today;
- For those of us asserting that Daniels has been much more biased -- and non-factual-- in his reporting than the local Sacramento media, we essentially received confirmation today from David Stern. I've yet to hear him criticize or refute anything reported by a member of the Sacramento media.
- The seller has, yet again, sent a letter to the NBA endorsing their deal with the Seattle group, all while disparaging Sacramento's efforts. Gee, I wonder why would they continue to do that? It wouldn't have anything to do with the possibility that they may be hearing things behind the scenes that's making them nervous? Why else would such a confident bunch keep sending un-necessary letters??
- We have verbal confirmation from David Stern that the offers, while maybe not 100% identical in how they're authored, are indeed 100% equal in regards to the amount of $$ ending up on the sellers pocket. Isn't that a pretty big deal?
- Considering that the above point is true and all things are equal, why does the seller still prefer to sell to the out-of-market group? Could it be confirmation that the seller really does have a "scorched earth" policy/agenda against the city of Sacramento and it's fans? Or could it be because they have colluded with the Seattle group for some type of benefit on the back end if their deal goes through? It makes you wonder what their true motivation is. If neither accusation is true, why on earth would they possibly care who ends up with the team?
