This channel is one of those cases where something shows up that you didn't know you needed, but now you don't know how you lived without it before.

Should give game analysis on the current playoff games

A meet the owners series with the NBA would be very interesting

As an OKC fan, my favorite thing about Ballmer is that he gave us SGA.

Since a large majority of followers come from Tifo Football I think that Stan Kroenke would make be an excellent choice for one of these Meet The Owners episodes. There's a lot of crossover between his ownership of the Nuggets and with Arsenal, particularly with underperformance when Stan was involved and how they are rebuilding both sides now that Josh Kroenke has taken over executive control.

Must be nice to settle litigation through just buying an asset.

Idc must about billionares or the Clippers but Steve Ballmer has to be the most interesting humans and I consider him the real 6th man/cheerleader

I like this "Meet the Owners" series

[OGSmoke]

You don't need 7 minutes to say Patrick Beverley.

So why didn't Steve Ballmer purchase the Detroit Pistons?

[ApolloVIIIYouAreGoForTLI]

This is kinda unrelated but Its time the Clippers relocate out of LA, He's right, they need there own identity but I fail to see how moving into the old showtime lakers facilities will do that ...It's just stupid to have two teams in one city no matter how big the city is.

I think Los Vegas is perfect

Correction: there are currently not enough clipper fans to fill the stadium, even when the tickets are given away for free. Most clipper games have more away fans than home fans.

6:14 The Clippers were knocked out of the first round in 2019, not the conference semis

[jacobbell]

the clippers didn't make the conference semi finals in 2019

[nateellem]

Why he didn't move the clippers to Seattle???

[anthonybanks]

If fully healthy he has the highest chance to win this year as of right now

[joshbrown]

I feel like Mark Cuban would have something to say about being the most active owner courtside, at least in the Mavs playoff run
