Yeah, unless

1. Las Vegas gets a team in the 2027-2028 expansion

2. Adam Silver decides it’s illogical to leave the 4th largest media market for the 40th largest since their ratings have been on a downward trend. I guess this kind of gives Dallas leverage but idk.

*Edit:** To add on, I’m definitely in the minority, but I don’t think the Adelson’s have plans of moving the Mavs to Vegas. Unless they really didn’t know that they had an opportunity to have a team there in a couple of years.

I genuinely think this greedy family wants to tap into a new space and control the TX gambling market if it ever comes to fruition before anyone else gets the chance to eat up the market. I think one of the suburbs still remain as Dallas biggest threat. More specifically Irving where they own 260 aces already.

If their plan is to alienate an entire fanbase, good luck getting the votes they need for public funding.

That's enough for 65 deck of cards.
