many Mavs fans at reddit are saying that new ownership wanted to sabotage the team, making it easier then to relocate the team to Vegas.

they are going to make a new team in Vegas, the league isn't abandoning the 9th biggest city in the country. That's just silly.

Maybe ownership had financial concerns, but it has nothing to do with relocation.

Not just that, but the Adelsons lobby HEAVILY to legalize casino gambling in Texas. Even more, they don't even own casinos in Vegas anymore... only Macau.

It's the 4th largest metro area, so extremely silly.
