- Possible keep The article itself is bad. The event itself is probably notable enough, being sponsored by a NBA team for a major charity. Probably news sources could be found. Northwestgnome (talk) 02:03, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment my news links disappeared (maybe it was on the last prod), but a google news search doesn't show much/any reliable and verifiable coverage. Just press releases. tedder (talk) 02:15, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Delete As G11 promotional material. This is basically a copy of a press release, and zero reliable sources can be found on the subject. (I live in Portland, FWIW). Steven Walling (talk) 02:54, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment If the article is a word-for-word copy of a press release, I think that qualifies for CSD G12 copyvio. Do you have a link to the press release? --A More Perfect Onion (talk) 17:03, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as spam. The article is entirely promotional. -- Whpq (talk) 15:34, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I can only find one independent reliable source referring to it, and that's a passing reference. Fences&Windows 22:38, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Delete as spam. This is the press release if not the copy of it. Therefore reason 11 WP:SPEEDY 'Pages that exclusively promote some entity and that would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic'Polargeo (talk) 17:50, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment as a reminder, in my nomination I asked for someone to look at the page creation history. How many times has it been created and speedy/prod deleted in the past? If it has (as I think it has), I'd recommend salting. tedder (talk) 22:46, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
