Reading the lines [[and between the lines):
1). He wants to be a player downtown with Ilitch Holding and Gilbert.
2). Sitting out in Auburn Hills [["not being in an 'urban corridor' Dan Gilbert") is not consistent with his vision for basketball. Basketball is an urban sport. Maybe hockey can be in the distant 'burbs like downriver, but not basketball...
How does he get to be a big player downtown and how does he get the Pistons downtown [[given that he also owns the Palace)?
Detroit can never have enough folks with deep pockets...
