Joining the already known group of billionaire Ron Burkle, 24 Hour Fitness founder Mark Mastrov, and Golden State Warriors minority owner Vivek Ranadive is Qualcomm CEO Paul Jacobs.
This is a pretty powerful and pretty rich group of people. I think Seattle's done....

I heard Burkle is out due to conflict of interest issues. However he will remain the main backer of the arena deal. And the Maloofs hated Burkle due to his calling them out during last years debacle. I think this whole Kings thing can go either way.

The whole thing is a cluster fuck.

Add to the fact that the NBA can approve the sale and reject relocation and you add another twist in this saga.

That douchebag Stern needs to retire NOW, and the new commissioner needs to grant an expansion team or two.

So you're saying that the Kings have 4 in their sac? Most people have 2, except for Kalm who's short one.

Yeah, but the Kings are working with peanuts, whereas the Seattle group has 3 brazil nuts.

For me...the term "ball sack" is actually accurate.

As is "nut up."

From what I heard the Sac group match Hansen's bid dollar for dollar. Stern insists he won't allow a bidding war but I don't see why the other owners wouldn't want to profit off of this situation by having the value of franchises ratcheted up in this thing.
