when do the spurs move to austin?

[vy65]

There is a proposed bill called the SPURS act (Strengthening Public Understanding for Retaining Sports) that would make it almost impossible if it passes.

The bill would require team owners to give a written notification of intent to move 1 year before relocation. If an owner is to relocate a team they must reimburse the state and local government for financial assistance and incentives provided by them including special tax treatment and financing of arenas. Local governments could then sue the team to recover financial damages from the relocation.

Not a government lawyer, but that doesn't strike me as surviving cons utional scrutiny. Seems like its very much ex post in application.

i really, really have to think the spurs absolutely move to austin as opposed to moving to vegas.

but if the spurs did jolt to vegas, do they keep the spurs name? or make it something more exciting / relevant ?

I think the Spurs will eventually move to El Paso, Laredo, McAllen - the NBA really wants that Mexican money and if they have a team close to the border I am pretty sure it would sale out every game and the expensive suites would be bought out in minutes
