Note that one of the writers is from Sacramento.
I think it is absolutely ridiculous to suggest that this contract clause is a "snag" or "surprise". I am certain that the Seattle group and the Maloofs had their attorneys spend tons of hours reviewing this contract, and the decision was made that the sale would be legal, so they proceeded. I guarantee that no one in the Seattle group is being surprised with this news.
All that matters is NBA approval at this point.
March 1st I believe. That's the deadline to file for relocation for the following season.Glasgow Seahawk":bb2cbaet said:What date will we know one way or the other if there will be a team in Seattle next season? Is it all down to the NBA approving the move or could there still be issues after that?
Well, technically the Maloofs still own the team right now, so they'd be filing(?) or the $30 million deposit established a business relationship and they'll all be filing? The NBA's inner workings and the actual sales agreement are both in the shadows right now, so it's hard to tell exactly how it's all going to go down.-The Glove-":wjs4zmwr said:Ok. So Hansen will file by the deadline and then we'll have to to wait for the BOG approval?
Ah I see...this whole thing is getting really confusing.

I expect there to be a relocation filing of some sort by March 1st, though.
