I thought so…ain’t no way in hell the Rockets have increased in value by almost a billion since Tilman bought the team
I rounded up to $3B , Forbes has them at ~$2.75B as of last month you can google it. The Rockets were purchased for $2.2B in 2017, my bad he has some paper gains of some $575M in 4 years. I know you want Tilman to be screwed, but if you see my posts from 2017-2020, I was very much under the impression he could have been forced to sell. If you look at my posts from last year, I went into great depth into why I think he could default on his debt given a majority of what he had was tied up in hospitality with the world shut down. I am perfectly OK admitting I was wrong and that he came out in a much better position than I imagined this year, and good for him. I won't go into too much detail, but I will say as someone who was in hospitality private equity for a while ,and his name of course comes up in the same circles/mutual friends etc, my gut is telling me he is fine just based on his competitors , some of which I am close to, now being fine.
Watching them sit courtside is hilarious. Some pleb runs stat sheets to them throughout the game and they point and look like they really know what they are talking about. Patrick would be/is a terrible poker player, pouring out all his frustrations and emotions like a petulant child. That's all hilarious but to do it courtside makes it cringe!!
Jokes aside, does anyone know if Tilman and Patrick have always attended these random road trips? Or are they only present to evaluate Silas?
I bet you Tilly is pushing for us to activate Wall. Nothing ticks him off more than paying $40M for a non-contributor. He wants to win some games and he thinks John Wall would help.
Daddy is traveling with Patrick for now until the training wheels come off then it will be the Patrick show.
The latest Forbes valuation is around $2.75 billion : https://www.forbes.com/sites/mikeoz...ow-worth-over-5-billion-each/?sh=6dff313cd32c
