i know porter is rallying up some people to buy the blazers which means we probably are if porter has anything to do with it |

Other articles have said $300mil total for team and arena, and implied half for each.

I wonder if he's already in the group, as his name was mentioned earlier with TP's also being mentioned.

Re: Allen to sell blazers before the draft...
Thats good i think tp wants to make some changes like trades and he wants to be in control of who they pick i think at least.

Re: Allen to sell blazers before the draft...
could be that stern wanted the lame duck owner out before the draft so its really the first move of the owner, I dont think twould replace anyone for the first season to help the transition so that mean nash could be back if allen is gone.
porter and nate? interesting.

Re: Allen to sell blazers before the draft...
Once Allen sells, Miles should be out of here. Hoping, at least.

Re: Allen to sell blazers before the draft...
I really don't get it. His(allen) heart must not be in it anymore. I'm thinking if I'm a multi billionaire like him, and love the NBA, I don't mind losing money here and there and I'd try and get the team turned around. Even if it means overpaying to buy the rose garden. Probably not the best business moves, but lets be real, this is kind of chump change for him. I'm just a competitive guy and I'd be like Cuban I guess.

Re: Allen to sell blazers before the draft...
he hasnt been into it since 2003 when the team went sour and he is jumping ship, I think thats when (2003) he decided to start moves to cut the costs of the team to sell it.
