Ownership of a major sport franchise is highly coveted. There will be people lining up to buy the Blazers and they will pay more than what they're worth. Paul Allen paid $70M and they're worth $3.6B now. I just hope the new owners don't try to move them after 2030. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
