16 Portland Trail Blazers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
The re-branding of the Trail Blazers continued last season as the team made it to the postseason for the first time in six years. Owner Paul Allen deserves credit for hiring Tod Leiweke as CEO of Vulcan Sports Entertainment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the division of Vulcan Inc. which runs both the Seattle Seahawks of the NFL and the Trail Blazers. Leiweke brought in Nike executive Larry Miller as president and to be in charge of all aspects of business for the team and arena. Miller has led a 48% surge in revenue the past two years. Leiweke also promoted Kevin Pritchard to general manager and Pritchard has assembled a solid young team. The Blazers took a big hit to the bottom line when Darius Miles returned to basketball last year with the Memphis Grizzlies after sitting out two years with what was thought to be a career ending injury. The Blazers had waived Miles in 2008 and insurance was picking up most of his $9 million salary. When he returned to play,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Blazers were on the hook for his salary and a $5.9 million luxury tax bill.
