For the second mailbag installment of this week, I've grouped together a few questions about incoming owner Tom Dundon and the impact he could have on the franchise in the short term, as well as the Moda Center renovation funding bill that's currently making its way through the state senate.
How much of a role would you assume Dundon has in how our FO is operating this season especially at the recent deadline? Obviously he can't publicly have a role but I've been wondering how much sway he's been operating with as our shadow owner until he's officially voted in by other NBA owners.
