1.09 Larry Bird - SF 1980's Swapped draft slots to land The Hick from French Lick. When you think of Larry Legend what comes to mind? The steal and pass against the Pistons, his proclamation that everyone was playing for 2nd in the 3pt contest with him winning, finger aloft not even bothering to take off his warm up jacket, or one of his numerous highlight reel passes or shots? Larry Bird was cold blooded when it mattered most on the biggest stages against other all-time players.

They should want more than that. The 1/30th each franchise makes off the expansion fees, they then 'only' get 1/32 in future tv revenue, etc down the line. By expanding they really end up (in essence) taking out a no-interest loan with some long-term downside. Not sure I'd want to do that as one of those 32 governors unless the franchise fee was higher. Those tv deals are going to shoot up in a few years.

@Doug Bwas easily the FBG of the year 2020. His knowledge, accurate information, and consistency were amazing. As important, the tone of posts were spot on to keep conversations going where people felt heard and respected. Major props to Doug B.
