The Official 2025/2026 NBA Season - The New York Knicks Are The 2026 NBA CHAMPIONS!!!

With Mark Walter flipping his Lakers stake after just 14 months for $12.5B and Marc Lore selling his controlling share of the Timberwolves to Marc Stad at a $4.5B valuation, the pattern isn't just obvious to me—it’s alarming. I believe we are witnessing a classic asset bubble playing out in real time.
In my view, these quick-turnaround exits aren't about long-term stewardship; they are about maximizing profit margins. Investors are buying into NBA franchises, taking advantage of hyper-inflated valuations driven by institutional money, and cashing out the moment a higher bidder steps into the room. I look at ownership stints measured in months rather than decades and see a clear shift: franchises are ceasing to be institutions but are becoming liquid trading vehicles.
The surge from $10B to $12.5B for Los Angeles or $1.5B to $4.5B for Minnesota in ridiculously short windows isn't sustainable growth to me; it's market speculation. I see new owners entering at the absolute peak of the curve, while the previous tier takes their billions and run before the yield plateaus.
I expect more of these record-shattering, brief ownership stints to keep happening as long as the NBA continues to negotiate bigger media rights deals. The danger here is simple: how long before the teams we love become pawns for the elites to play with?
Houston GM seems to the the only one willing to actually negotiate with players. Every other GM, whatever the max you can get is, sign here.

Harden have shown you he's not dependable in the playoffs yet this shitty re-sign him. Then,you have the shitty fans that accepts this bullshit.

2 /13
This aint scaring not one person who follows basketball. These niggas look like a bunch of motherfucking skanks on the blade.
Top 5 defense last year with Herro/Norm
Remove them and add Giannis
Welcome to hell
Lol. Everybody on the left was miles better than the right is now besides Chalmers vs Davion, the 5th best on each team and I would take Chalmers. Giannis now isn't touching the greatest version of Bron. Somebody would get slapped for even bringing up D-Wade vs Wiggins. Bosh can do everything better than 83. Ray wasn't washed then, Klay is now.
