I think it's a good opening offer that Leonsis can work with. He wants a bunch of taxpayer money to keep the teams in Gallery Place and knows that the city is desperate to keep them there because without the Wizards and Caps, the neighborhood goes completely into an abyss.
I think Leonsis talks a bunch of sentimental BS about loving the neighboring and DC, but he only cares about the money. If DC's offer looks more profitable to Leonsis, he'll bail on VA. It was pretty telling that his agreement was "non-binding."
