    If 2020 gives us literally anything of positive note, please let it be that Tilman will have to sell.

    My man Tils gotta come up with some cash quick. He's been living off of extended credit, but now his dealer is getting antsy.

    Hahaha, I remember decades ago when I was living there I would occasionally walk past that place. It stuck out like the sorest thumb in the world. And it was not even a nice or remarkable block! there was like a sporting goods store and some parking lots and a mcdonalds and high rises on teh edge of downtown. But still it managed to look off.

    I wouldn't want to be Tilman. He really should sell to Michael Dell.

    Only if Dell commits wholeheartedly to the Houston Rockets.

    Tilman has, for the most part, weathered the storm, and is uniquely positioned to solidify/maximize his position coming out of the pandemic. Going public is ABSOLUTELY the smart play. It's time for him to go ALL IN (and then some)...not sell.
    His position of weakness, is about to be turned into one of strength.

    Just gotta stay strong and spread the boycott. If no one eats at his crappy restaurants he'll still bleed out no matter how many investors he gets.

    Shut up and listen, dude paid double the price of Landry's stock to buy it all back. Got sued by his largest shareholder in the process. But he bough it all back, he's a dealmaker and all in!

    It means he needs cash liquidity to pay his debts and this is his short term way to get it

    There's no doubt he has to pay the piper.
    I'm well aware of the situation. He was absolutely caught with his pants down regarding Covid. There was no way he couldn't have been hit harder than anyone else with his exposure. That said, he's managed the situation through various means. And you're extremely naive if you think he can't lay hands on huge $$$$$. My point is that he will eventually come out of this stronger than before because of moves being made now.

    NBA Giving All 30 Teams $30M Each To Help With Cash Flow

    The NBA will give each of their 30 teams a cash distribution of $30 million.

    The money will come from $900 million the NBA raised from notes issued by the league in the private marketplace. The market generally includes insurance companies and institutional investors.

    The notes are for three or four years and will be paid back with interest.

    The cash will help teams with cash flow and liquidity issues.

    It would have been awesome if a group of super max players got together and agreed to lend the money to the owners...

    I am sure that $30,000,000 will be used to prop up a couple Salt Grass restaurants or maybe to buy Luby's.
