Obviously, owning both would increase the value to Benson.
THis. ANy money Benson spends down therre obviously incereases revenue for both franchises. He was in position to make the best offer.

As for Chouest, he made a strong push buy the Hornets from Shinn but Shinn was so cash-strapped he made the negotiations impossible. Chouest made a strong offer, but Shinn tried to screw him by making him take on debt that he had already bought from Shinn.
Something along those lines, no doubt. Shinn was pathetic. But this all is probably for the best anyway. Perhaps Chouest will buy in, but I'm not sure Benson really wants any other owners involved.

I'm really interested to see what the New Orleans Center, Champions Square and the surrounding area looks like in the next couple of years.

Anyone find it funny that Pro Football Talk has a story up about this, but Pro Basketball Talk doesn't?

Agenda lists discussion of all THREE offers. Not two, and not just an approval for the one most are claiming (Benson) #StayTuned

It could still be Benson, and it could still be today, but agenda does specifically say those in meeting will discuss all 3 options

Does he think the league and owners aren't going to talk about it until it comes up on the "agenda"?
"Hey, we can't discuss this until David calls the agenda item. We don't want to get in trouble!"

If Stern wants it be Benson, the BOG will choose Benson.

I wasn't planning on making the drive tonight, but if they announce a deal, I might just do it.

that would be some good shite if they made their formal announcement at halftime tonight.
I say halftime, because nobody is there till then.
