I don't even see anything from this year though. Do you have any links to what you were talking about before?

Silver hasn’t mentioned anything since they dedicated that street outside Climate Pledge to Lenny Wilkins months ago, but the new Seattle mayor mentioned something recently.
Bill Simmons also mentioned something on his pod last month or so. Thought I remember him saying there’s rumblings in league offices they can get closer to $6B total for two teams…

Quote from Bill Simmons:
“I have some intel," Simmons began on his Monday podcast. "I think the [NBA] is going to expand to Vegas and to Seattle."
Seattle has been without an NBA team since 2008 when the Sonics were moved to Oklahoma City and rebranded as the Thunder.
"I don't care if it gets aggregated because I think I'm right," Simmons said.
"I think the NBA is looking at this going, ‘we can add these huge expansion things.’ I heard, combined, $6.5-7 billion for the two teams."
Peep here for the podcast (2/28/22) breakdown where he mentions it:

I'm about 20 mins into the Lewis pod with Knuckleheads, very good listen as he gets into his HS career and going straight to the league. Also mentions Korleone Young which is a name I hadn't heard in some time, looked him up and didn't know he only appeared in 3 games for the Pistons.

Didn't know Jamal was down in LA like that...dope convo for sure. Got love for BD too! My parents sold their spot behind Rainier Beach High a year ago so I don't slide through the neighborhood as much anymore.
