It’s probably fun to be Warriors owner Joe Lacob right now. But in the world of NBA owners, it does seem like he is persona non grata right now.
Lacob spend the early part of this week in New York for NBA’s board of governors meeting, then sat down with Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner’s Point Forward podcast for a wide-ranging discussion in a 50-minute episode, touching on several topics.
But while many were telling tales of his past, Lacob’s present payroll for the Warriors roster is clearly at the front of his mind — and he doesn’t seem to like the “penal” luxury tax rules that the NBA has set up, either.
