Don't worry about all the lawsuits. This is SOP for rich guys doing big $$ deals. People in corporations all have lawyers and sue each other constantly. This is the envirement Chris Hanson lives in. He knows what he is doing. He will win.

Sooo I heard on KJR, from Brian Robinson's mouth, through my speakers to my ears, that approval for Hansen's group could come as soon as All Star Weekend or sooner.
That's the only news I'm gonna need to hear personally to start popping champagne like Chris Bosh.

I'm not sure he has that many friends. 2 or 3 might require several reloading periods.

Brian Robinson made a post last night on SonicsRising saying that Seattle will have even bigger news, if not this week, then soon.
Actually, though, no presser announced. There was a misunderstanding.

Anyone hear if Hanson's 30 million dollar payment to the Maloofs was paid, it was supposed to be yesterday or today I think?

That gives Hanson's lawyers a huge weapon. It's an important step.

I said battle, not war!
No one said to Hansen to pull the $30m of the table at the last minute, so I'm guessing we just passed one marker. Now it's all about the vetting and approval which could happen at anytime.

Wouldn't it be great if Seattle doesn't get the Sonics because you just jinxed it?

No it'd be a travesty, and you all should exile me!
To Australia or... Arizona... Maldives Islands?

Well if the move doesn't happen now, at least we'll know why.
