Newport Sports Museum Collection-NBA Game Used Jerseys
There are quite of few NBA Gamers up for auction, I was wondering what opinions were of some.

I'd be very interested to know as well. Never heard of this museum, let alone housing all these All-Star caliber player jerseys.
On another note, I've NEVER seen a Chicago Bulls "team letter" look like the one for the Pippen jersey offered.

It sure doesn't look like the Pacer's wanted this jersey sold for profit. If Mr. Hamilton is the consignor, it seems to be questionable at best. Or maybe morals don't matter after 9 years? If I was Vonda Brooks or the Pacers, I'd ask for my jersey back, out of principle. But, I guess the pacers have bigger fish to fry, like not losing to Atlanta.

The LOA's from the teams don't really specify game use either. The Miller just states they sent a Miller jersey as per requested, couldn't that just be a team issued jersey?

I haven't been in the hobby long enough to know, but I don't think the owner of the museum ever really intended to shut its doors. I think its pretty common if exhibits of art are closing they are sold off to either settle debts or just to clear out the space in general.

I don't think strings on a transfer of possession are enforceable. Once ownership changes they can do whatever they want with it no matter how much the previous owner objects.
