how many think holt called stern today?

[ducks]

if more owners other then cuban would complain about refs
they might try to fix the problem

[Kori Ellis]

I'm guessing Pop and RC called the league, not Holt. Holt only owns about 20% of the team - it's not the same circumstance as Cuban.

[Sec24Row7]

There isn't a whole lot of owner interferance with day to day management of the team.

You know Pop did. He said he was going to call in an interview last night. As far as Holt, I thought he was the full owner. Who owns the rest of the team?

[angel_luv]

Was it a toll free call?

[Mr. Body]

I wish Pop were more of a promoter. If he were, we'd have at least 1 DPOY this decade, Manu would be winning 6th Man of the Year, and the Mavs wouldn't be enjoying the ref advantage they're presently enjoying.

[Kori Ellis]

... As far as Holt, I thought he was the full owner. Who owns the rest of the team?

This from the 05-06 season, I think things are relatively the same ...

Yeah Pop for sure. Crawford must be seeing red right now because he is getting just killed in the press over this, almost nobody thinks what he did yesterday was right and not personal. The league needs to take his ass down a peg. Clearly his EGO is out of control and needs to be checked at the door.

Nice, thanks. We should take up donations and buy a small stake of that LLC. ;)

[texas84]

and the Mavs wouldn't be enjoying the ref advantage they're presently enjoying.

Yah... complete BS. Crawford hosed SA yesterday, but no Mavs fan wants him officiating our games either.

Every team gets hosed and every team gets calls. Get over yourself.

[mabber]

I wish Pop were more of a promoter. If he were, we'd have at least 1 DPOY this decade, Manu would be winning 6th Man of the Year, and the Mavs wouldn't be enjoying the ref advantage they're presently enjoying.

If the Mavs are presently enjoying a ref advantage then I'd hate to think of the time when they weren't.

[SBGamesCone]

If the Mavs are presently enjoying a ref advantage then I'd hate to think of the time when they weren't.

That doesn't make a ton of sense. If you are in fact enjoying one and you no longer were then your team would be losing close games that came down to iffy calls....

[picnroll]

Pop will get a lot of currency with the league office for keeping Crawfords' megafukup so low key in the press

[Darkwaters]

I live out in Oklahoma City now and there have been serious discussions about bringing in an NBA team to replace the now vacant spot the Hornets left. San Antonio's model of local ownership has kind of become the bible for most NBA fans around here and they are hopeful that the ownership group from OKC that bought the Sonics (in much the same fashion) can move the team out here.

Good news for the people of OKC. I was surprised the Hornets did so well up there. OK kind of appeared to be football country, but the NBA did really well there.

[timvp]

Does Holt even still watch basketball?

[smeagol]

Clear Channel owns part of the Spurs?

Wow!

[SBGamesCone]

Does Holt even still watch basketball?

He's at most if not all of the games. That's when he's not playing with his tractors.

The league is investigating on the incident. Parker said they called him to know what happened.

Yeah Pop's low keyness in Games 3 and 4 last year really helped us yesterday.

If we can get a fair whistle in that building, I like our chances in the playoffs. I'm more concerned with how the refs will be in the Phx series because they're so darn entertaining an' all. The Suns and Heat both concern me in that regard. At least we're not gonna play Kobe and LA.

Interesting. :stirpot:

Is his French show today? Did Parker say what he heard?

[Holt's Cat]

Holt probably called his bankers today and asked about the valuation.

[Bruno]

Interesting. :stirpot:

Is his French show today?

Yes



Did Parker say what he heard?
No, I'm creating a thread where I will do a summary of what he has said.

[ArgSpursFan]

Nahh,the Mo***fucker is so cheap he wouldn´t pay the long distance call.

[wildbill2u]

Unlike Cuban, the Spurs FO and Pop are so gentlemanly and low key that they don't demand action in the press. Of course, Cuban can afford the fines and once paid $250,000 for one fine.

Whether you like it or not, the squeaky wheel gets some action, even if they fine it. Stern simply can't take the heat of bad publicity for the league when it's out front and loud. In this case, there may be more action in our favor because it isn't just the Spurs but nearly the whole damn country that is criticing Crawford.

[sprrs]

Was it a toll free call?

:lol :lol :lol :lol

[50 cent]

Nah.....Holt called collect.
