In a press conference Tuesday evening, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver expressed dismay at the pace of negotiations over renovating Moda Center, and said a potential deal to keep the Trail Blazers in Portland “seems to have gone off track.”
God forbid the standard playbook of fleecing taxpayers for the benefit of billionaire owners and wealthy season ticket holders be upset.
The blazers can fucking leave, we have bigger problems like affordable housing that take precedence over upgrading the suites in the moda center so rich corps can lobby and spoil themselves. The gall of some out of state billionaire just assuming they’ll get a bunch of money when the city is broke…people can’t even eat out in Portland let alone go to a sports game. So out of touch.
