Les is an incredibly cheap and greedy businessman He achieves his goal of getting more money i'm glad he never was so vocal like Tilman have you heard him talk?
Tillman didn’t buy the team because he liked it. He bought it because he thought the value would go even higher. He’s on record saying This and that an nfl team isn’t worth it due to concern for tbi. He’s the same as les in terms of motives but more morally corrupt
If he’s like Les he will sell the team once he thinks it’s at his highest value and he would talk hardens mvp trophy
I'm a realist The 'outrage' for Tilman for the overall fanbase is not anywhere close to Knicks fans wanting Dolan to sell. Just like how pissed off we were for Les and the ugly uniforms, how he low balled Barkley and Rick Adelman etc. Overall fanbase, nope. Only the hardcore minority. And people thinking that Mattress Mack has 3 billion dollars under his Serta Sleeper Mattress are clueless. If there's going to be another owner who's not the Fertita family, they are going to be ultra rich. Steve Balmer level. It's funny how the Google generation doesn't use Google
Any owner that would sell a team AND KEEP THE TWO CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHIES is a fukcing azzhole. Screw Les and his wicked giggle.
Did Jeanie Buss get LeBron then sell the Lakers? Nope Why? Money? treat the team like a bubble stock or fixer upper condo? Nah. Jeanie Buss and the Buss family owned the Lakers are never selling. It's not about money cause they are rich already. When you get that rich to buy a sports franchise, you aren't suppose to be that thirsty for money. Unless you are les
What? most people on earth talk and thanks for telling me about Les I want to tell you Yao Ming is Chinese not Puerto Rican @Reeko
Well, most Jewish business men are successful, and they are not generous. It's a cliché but it is somewhat valid. And certainly there should be better Jewish owners than Les who seemed to be extra cheap.
you like to make up stuff on what people write it tells us more about you than me this guy cares more about China first mentions Chinese new year first 'It's the MAXIMUM AUDIENCE we get ..' He does not sound excited at all And he does sound like he's a New Yorker who knows in the back of his mind he's going to sell He's more enthusiastic about Yao than the current team, obviously But please write whatever you randomly think because you won't comment on the actual content I'm writing. @Reeko @Os Trigonum
No idea what your elitist agenda is. Or why straying a little from context bothers you so much. Out of the box thinking. It was a harmless jab at him being a profit oriented biz guy who wasn't wealthy enough to be a top owner during his time. The Rox regular season record was mostly fine but nothing special.
lol you mention his ethnicity I only mentioned that he was New Yorker who was a Wall Street bonds trader ( in the era of greed ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie_Alexander_(businessman) Alexander began his career as an attorney. From 1978 to 2009, he was a member of the California State Bar.[7] His first job was trading options and bonds for the Wall Street firm, Lawrence Kotkin Associates.[4] In 1980, he left to form his own investment company, The Alexander Group.[4] He also owns an 18.5% stake in First Marblehead, a private student loan company.[8]
Les's ethnicity has nothing to do with: 1. taking the championship trophies with him to Florida after selling the team 2. investing heavily in China more than he ever did in Houston 3. changing the uniforms to have pin stripes like the yankees and making the color blue when it's been red 4. changing it back to red but china red to gain more fans from china 5. lowball Hakeem in his last year by a few million and giving him thank you money like the Lakers did Kobe 6. How he treated Rudy T after cancer 7. How he treated Calvin Murphy after he was found NOT GUILTY in tria 8. How he was looking for a new coach when Van Gundy was still coaching in the playoffs 9. How he gave Rick Adelman a very low salary when his contract was up to get rid of him 10. Threaten to move the team to Louisville Kentucky if the city didn't make him a new arena 11. Clashed with other businessmen about getting the NHL to Houston and never did 12. Getting Chris Paul then dumping the team right after that to get maximum value 13. Making Toyota Center corporate friendly first before fan friendly 14. Not paying Barkley the back end $3 he promised for taking a low salary to sign Pippen 15. Making every advertisement at Toyota Center focused toward China 16. Fires Steve Patterson after he assembled the championship team in 1994 and then takes credit for winning a title @Os Trigonum Elite knowledge of the Rockets
