Will Bezos Buy The Celtics Or Not? Latest Reports Say That He Will
Billionaire Jeff Bezos may actually buy the Boston Celtics basketball team, according to latest reports, contradicting earlier news that he had 'no plans' to buy the reigning NBA champions.
億萬富翁傑夫·貝佐斯據最新報道可能會購買波士頓凱爾特人籃球隊，與此前「無計劃購買」這一消息相矛盾。
On Thursday morning, WEEI's The Greg Hill Show co-host Courtney Cox said that the bidding was down to three finalists: Bezos, Fenway Sports Group and Wynn Resorts, owner of hotel and casino Encore Boston Harbor, Sports Illustrated reported.
根據《體育畫刊》的報道，WEEI的The Greg Hill Show的聯合主持人Courtney Cox在週四早上表示，最終競標者縮減爲三家：貝佐斯、Fenway Sports Group和酒店和賭場Encore Boston Harbor的所有者Wynn度假村。
Cox stated that Bezos was a possible buyer two weeks after it was reported on Aug. 21 that the Amazon Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) founder did not plan to purchase the Celtics, following a report earlier in the day that he was offering $6 billion for the team with an estimated worth of $4.7 billion.
Cox表示，8月21日的報道稱亞馬遜（納斯達克代碼：AMZN）創始人在當日早些時候出價60億美元購買價值估計爲47億美元的凱爾特人隊時，貝佐斯成爲潛在買家。

Bezos has previously shown interest in buying the National Football League's Seattle Seahawks and Washington Commanders.
貝佐斯此前曾表達對購買美國國家橄欖球聯盟的西雅圖海鷹隊和華盛頓指揮官隊的興趣。
Boston Basketball Partners L.L.C., the Celtics' primary shareholder, intends to sell a majority interest in the Celtics in 2024 or early 2025. Wyc Grousbeck is expected to stay on board as the Governor of the Celtics until the deal's expected closing in 2028.
波士頓籃球合夥人公司，凱爾特人隊的主要股東，計劃在2024年或2025年初出售凱爾特人隊的大部分股權。預計Wyc Grousbeck將繼續擔任凱爾特人隊的總督，直到2028年預計的交割日期。
Charlie Jacobs, the CEO of Delaware North, which owns the Celtics' stadium TD Garden, said during the Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon that the team recently signed a lease to remain in their current home venue for "another 12 years or so."
Delaware North公司首席執行官Charlie Jacobs在Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon期間表示，該隊最近簽訂了租約，以在現有場館TD Garden繼續留在"另外12年左右"。
That plan could change if Bezos buys the team because he may want to own the Celtics' local arena and build a new stadium comparable to the Intuit Dome, a new stadium built by Los Angeles Clippers owner Steve Ballmer.
如果貝佐斯購買該隊，這個計劃可能會改變，因爲他可能希望擁有凱爾特人隊的本地場館，並建設與洛杉磯快船隊老闆Steve Ballmer建設的Intuit Dome相媲美的新體育館。
