"We're blessed with a good relationship with these guys, both the owners and the professionals who run the Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, and they own the Devils and the Sixers among other assets," said Murphy."We've been observing the lack of progress in Philadelphia and we said, 'You know what, we're going to raise this with them.'
