Mickey bought the team for 33 million in 88 & the team is now worth 425million that's a pretty profitable hobby if you ask me [pic]

I know this is on the Heat's owner, but if I was Buss I think I would sell the Lakers now - 2 years, before Kobe is done for and they fall off.

Maximize your profit. I never understand why owners (who are in it for profit) wait to sell their teams when they see the sinking ship coming seasons ahead ALA Astros[pic]

Lol, this dude is brilliant. Anyone who understands business can read this and understand EXACTLY why. Theres a certain thing he forgot to mention [pic]

Holy !!.. Why are human beings allowed to be so damn stupid?

You do realize the Lakers just signed a $3 billion TV deal?

Or that the team is on track to be the first one in the NBA worth $1billion +?

One player doesn't drive the REAL value of a franchise.

Stern winning

micky is one of the best owners in the league IMO. will spend to win and doesn't try to micromanage the team. he's not making !!ty moves just to avoid tax if it hurts the team like you see a lot of teams do. if you don't think he's a smart owner, read up on the arena deal he has though [pic].

Man whatever that little bit of money the gave Lebron, Dwade, and Bosh ain't !! to the money that was made

07-05-2012, 12:00 PM

the owner must owe stern a ton for helping them get a ring by the veto on the cp3 trade.....

07-05-2012, 12:05 PM

Like Bill Plasike said on ATH a couple days ago, their not losing, their not gaining enough, meaning they are trying to get more money.

07-05-2012, 12:20 PM

lol@your !!ty fanbase.
