If true, it sucks for Sacremento...reminds me of the Hornets situation, when the move to NOLA was finalized was the worst day of my sports life, I'm sure the Kings fans are worried to death.
I would love to see Seattle get their Sonics back but, not at the expense of another fan base.
the nba is going to get some classics back in the next couple years. sonics and hornets.
I don't really feel sorry for the kings fans. I mean they had 4 teams in one state who didnt see this coming? Now that the kings are gone they have 4 teams to pull for. Lakers, clips, warriors, or supersonics.
They will jump on the warriors bandwagon for sure
You know how big California is right?Quote:

Two of those teams are in LA so it's really 3 other places.
You have the Hawks (about a 15-20 minute ride farther than I have to drive to Charlotte) and the Wizards in the NBA. You also have the Panthers and the Checkers.
Know how many other franchises/teams SAC has other than the Kings?
Yea, that's basically the same as saying it was no big deal that the Hornets left Charlotte because they had the Hawks, Wizards Magic, Heat, and New Orleans they could all root for.
On another note, with a new owner in New Orleans and the Kings possibly headed to Seattle, you guys know that the Bobcats are the next in line when a billionaire comes knocking to move a team to his hometown, right Corb?
No it's nt the same state, people who were born in sac are fromcalifornia right? They have 3 teams in there state they can pull for. I would not pull for the hawks if the bobcats left b/c I'm not from Georgia.
You guys must be pulling my leg I know you understand what I'm talking about. It's not that significant that 1 team out of 4 is leaving California.
You're the one not getting something.Quote:

You can drive from one end of South Carolina to the other in three hours. It's 1.5 from Sacramento to the nearest other NBA team.
When you get to places that huge, it's a little more than "welp there are other teams in the state, support one of them"
