The Hawks are for sale – as in 100 percent of the NBA franchise.

According to person familiar with the situation, agreements have been reached between all three ownership groups of the team. Those agreements have been approved by the league.

Another racist ownership group down the drain. I'm thinking at least half the leagues teams will need to be sold soon. I'm pretty sure plenty of owners have made a black joke or two. F-cking white, cracka asses!

You realize the owners wanted to sell the team before, and David Stern said no to the proposed new buyer?

So you realize that some of the owners are using the so-called racist language as an excuse so they can now sell the team?

Exactly! F-cking racists! Language like that not allowed in our sport.

Hopefully we can get some corrupt Russian oligarch to buy the team and send our franchise spiraling into a good 12 years worth of complete irrelevance

Bad contracts, could see the sense in all of those contracts to provide relevance to a team in a new market with a team already in place. But yes the future is not bright. Not mocking you're squad. Theyre just known for bad fans and attendance. They are crushing this year, strike while the irons hot for the owners makes sense.

Haha, then 99.9% of this world is racist.

Well, if we're all in on it, then is it such a bad thing?

Good job trading away so many first round picks and collecting contracts of guys on the back end of their careers.

bitter ass hawks fan, see ya in seattle dude.

Bitter about what?
We are second in the East, have some good young players who can develop over the years - Payne, Schroeder, Scott, Mack, Muscala, hopefully Jenkins.

We still have 4 million in cap space available now.
