    Ah man! Does this mean Mattress Mack is not going to own the team?

    Maybe he meant the end of the Fertitta World which could be very possible if COVID 19 did not let up.

    There were random ass owners people were dreaming up
    El Chapo had a better chance of buying the Rockets than Mark Zuckerberg or mattress Mack or Yao missing in action Ming

    The scary part is - the scenario he's pointing out is a potential reality. Good times. 2020 exactly how I pictured it as a kid...... err.....

    Be careful what you wish for. The last thing I want is for him to panic sell to some d-bag who wants to move the team to Louisville or some other ridiculous place.

    If selling the team, new rockets owner pays average 40 million luxury tax each year

    next 5 years 4 teams title contenders
    Clippers win 2 rings
    GSW win 1 ring
    Lakers win 1 ring
    Rockets win 1 ring.

    All 4 teams pay tax.

    if not sell, cutting cost coming up, it’s 7th to 10th seed

    Maybe so. But Trump has a lot more money now than he did in 2016. Saudi’s etc have been staying at his properties in mass the last several years.

    None of what he says disproves the notion that he will never spend what it takes to contend. Nobody is saying he isn’t still rich. He just isn’t rich enough to be a quality owner of an NBA franchise.

    Rockets will never win a title with him in the picture. Seems pretty obvious based on his actions during the Harden and Morey era.

    It should also be noted that he is a giant turd of a person. He treats his employees like crap.

    cut cost and lose assets, let players go for nothing.

    2017-18 salary dump Ariza, 15 million dollars

    2018-19 salary dump Knight 15 million

    2019-20 salary dump shumpert 11 million

    2020-21 salary dump Gordon- projected

    Why not keep them and trade them?

    He didn't actually address his financial situation, he simply says the Rockets will never be sold. It means he loves that he owns the Rockets. Neat. We already knew that from him muralizing himself and having his trust fund kid get involved in basketball ops.
