believe generally translates to a lot of money. And then the other question is like, all right, if you don't want to pay this money in the Celtics right now projected for over $200 million payrolls each of the next few years, because all those signings you guys mentioned, are you going to be the person who buys the Celtics and breaks up a title team? Right.

Like Derek White, Kristaps Porzingis, Jalen Brown, Jason Tatum, all under contract for the next few years. I think I'm forgetting someone else on top of that. But you're going to have to make a decision whether you want to pay those pay those taxes or whether you want to deal with the second apron restrictions, which might include a frozen pick.

Or you're going to be the one who says, hey, we got to start over and dip under.

Yeah, this this is going to be an interesting one. It might be have an impact on the expansion prices. It might also be kind of like the final capstone to this last decade or so of, you know, titanic valuations across the NBA. Right. The Suns. were valued at $4 billion when Matt Ishby had bought them last year. That's the most that an NBA team has been valued at when sold for a control sale.

And so I think the Celtics will go above that. They'll set a record for the NBA. Where it lands exactly, I don't know. You talk to smart people, they're like, hey, maybe it lands $4.75 billion, $5 billion. I talked to an NBA owner who thought it might land close to $6 billion. If it gets that high, then maybe the NBA starts asking for $7 billion when it goes to expand in Vegas, which...

A lot of money, again.

the celtics are also an odd case right they don't own their own arena now real estate is a big proposition part of the value prop when you buy an nba team you want to own like essentially all of the revenue that comes with the team from tickets to gate to uh to media rights to all of it the other part it's a weird ownership structure like the grosbecks own 30 roughly according to my sources with grosbeck who's the controlling um owner right now owns about two percent his dad irv grosbeck who's uh
