NBA Notes: Allen expects to sell Blazers before draft
By The Associated Press
PORTLAND — Trail Blazers owner Paul Allen told The Oregonian on Friday in
Los Angeles that he has come to terms with selling the troubled team.
Allen said he planned to attend Portland's home game against Golden State on
Saturday night, and "that could be my last home game as Blazers owner.
"I've come to terms with it."
Allen, a co-founder of Microsoft and one of the world's richest men, has
lobbied for public funding for the team, which he says is costing him
millions of dollars to keep afloat. But he hasn't found much support in a
city and state that are strapped for cash.
Allen said there are several scenarios that might unfold, and that he
doesn't know how it will turn out.
He said any decision likely would be before the June 28 draft. He deflected
questions on what the asking price might be.
Former Blazers guard Terry Porter said he is rounding up potential investors
interested in buying the team.
Porter said his group already has $100 million in debt financing lined up.
