To a new season! Good outlook to start it off. [quote:72749b67e4]DETROIT -- The Detroit Pistons have found a new owner and he knows Motor City sports. The Pistons have decided to sell the team to Detroit Tigers and Detroit Red Wings owner Mike Ilitch, a person involved with the process said Tuesday. The person, who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because of a confidentiality agreement, said both sides were negotiating financial terms. Forbes last year valued the team at $479 million, but a weak economy, the threat of an NBA lockout next year and a motivated seller - Karen Davidson - likely mean the price is lower. Ilitch Holdings spokeswoman Jennifer Haselhuhn said the organization signed a nondisclosure agreement earlier this year and cannot comment. Mayor Dave Bing, former Pistons star, said Tuesday "the deal is not done, but we remain optimistic."[/quote:72749b67e4] Read More: http://www.nba.com/2010/news/10/05/pistons.sale.ap/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt2 Miami Heat tonight. :box:
