Richard Yarmuth, a Seattle attorney representing former Sonics owner Howard Schutlz, filed an amended complaint on Tuesday in federal court regarding Schultz’s lawsuit against the current Sonics ownership group.
The amended filing adds breach of contract to Schultz’s lawsuit, which seeks to undo the sale of the team because of Schultz’s belief that Sonics Chairman Clay Bennett did not live up to a “good faith, best efforts” provision in the sale agreement to negotiate a new arena deal in Seattle for 12 months after the sale of the team.
The revised suit states that Bennett’s group failed to negotiate or propose a reasonable arena plan, and ceased any meaningful efforts to negotiate an arena plan in April, 2007 instead of continuing to make a good faith, best efforts for 12 months, through August, 2007, as required by the purchase agreement.
If you’re looking for some more tidbits from what happened at the Tuesday’s draft, ESPN’s hoop blog master Henry Abbott was at the NBA lottery and offers some interesting comments from Tuesday night’s event.
And InsideHoops.com provides another mock draft here, with Arizona’s Jerryd Bayless going to the Sonics at No 4, and Seattle selecting Chris Douglass-Roberts of Memphis with the team’s 24th overall pick.
