CELTICS 2010

he’s 63 and i’ve never heard of like a familial succession plan so this seems prudent, but he’s low-key one of the best owners in sports.

he saw the second apron and said thats enough, im getting out before there's a 3rd one of these

Yeah they’re selling the team but did you hear DERRICK WHITE GOT EXTENDED?

oh yeah I guess this happened too

curious to see what he can do with consistent minutes and a full season with the team

I’d like to see how he does on the nuggets for a future second round pick and a swap. who says no??

cool to get all these minimum guys back, doesn't always happen with winning teams

this one is so good in showing the method to everything they were doing on offense and defense in the finals

the way they vaporized the mavs best play was embarrassing for the rest of the league, 1.25ppp in the wcf to .68 in the finals lmao

ah interesting

In conversations with some sources close to the situation, I’ve come away convinced that soon-to-be-90-year-old H. Irving Grousbeck is the one driving this sale and that 63-year-old son Wyc (one of four children of Irving Grousbeck) — managing partner, governor, and CEO of the Celtics, and always identified as the team’s owner — actually owns a relatively small stake in the franchise.

H. Irving Grousbeck — still teaching at Stanford Business School — has been the money behind the group since the beginning and there’s every indication that the billionaire (Forbes lists “Irving Grousbeck and family’s” worth at $1.8 billion) rarely seen at Celtics games is motivating this sale in an attempt to get his affairs in order.

I emailed the elder Grousbeck late Wednesday, requesting comment on my assertions, and he responded Thursday with a polite no comment.

When I texted Wyc with, “You OK if I say your personal stake in the team is less than 2 percent?”, he answered, “We hold as a family — all unified . . . We are a family and I also have a Celtics family is my comment. Thanks.”

interesting!

(but struggling to do the math that leads forbes to believe irving grousbeck & family, who hold a significant stake in a team valued at around $5 billion, have a total net worth of only $1.8 billion)

forbes dont know

username vmic xpost

math checking cuz

Grousbeck co-founded Continental Cablevision (later Media One) in 1964 with his college roommate, Amos Hostetter, Jr.[1]

wait, so both wyc grousbeck and james dolan own nba teams b/c their dads founded cable tv companies in the sixties?

that’s america baby

cable tv gotta love it fuck streaming society is in the gutter

Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser – one of the NBA’s most accurate three-point shooters -- has agreed on a four-year, $45 million contract extension, his agent Jason Glushon of @GlushonSM tells ESPN. pic.twitter.com/TCB0iGoeyd

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) July 21, 2024

Adding Hauser’s extension to the Celtics’ 2025-2026 payroll elevates it to a projected $225 million with an additional $210 million luxury tax penalty — highest in league and over the second-apron for a second consecutive year.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) July 21, 2024

wyc spending so much in luxury tax that he has to sell the team, salute

Hell yeah, run it back

if hauser can replicate this year for the foreseeable future let alone grow as a player that's a great deal. go c's

theres our guys
