You have a whole city in Sacramento that hates the owners. The Maloofs hate them back and don't want to deal with them at all. If the Maloofs will only sell to the Seattle group, how does the NBA stop that?

Also, there was an interesting article on ESPN a day or two ago that said Phil Jackson is waiting to see what happens with the Kings. Apparently he hit it off with Chris Hansen and wants to be a part of the Sonics if they come back. I'll link the article in a few minutes.

The NBA has to approve the sale- even for a minority share. I doubt Stern et al give a frick about what the Maloofs want at this point.

The Mickey Arison Twitter exchange is a good line on what the committe is thinking. Its not about Seattle. Its about Sacramento stepping up and doing everything the NBA asked for 2 years now

As for the 4-3 vote, that's not a fact at all. The guy who broke it is, big shocker here, a Seattle reporter. The NBA has already called it a "total fabrication."
