    Apparently the owners told the Maloofs to go piss up a rope during the BoG meeting, so if they think they're going to bully the league into letting them move the team, they're delusional

    Why anyone would read anything from this homer and climate-change denier is beyond me. His takes are horrible and always masked in BS homerism.

    this whole situation is a massive cluster , but least it will give me some drama to follow.

    they shouldn't have ever moved a team out of Seattle imo. You don't go from a dynamic market to a place known for a terrorist act and Flaming Lips. the fact they are even considering screwing over Sacramento shows that it wasn't the best decision.

    Owners always do this , they ruin a franchise with ty management, and if a city doesn't want to tax its citizens for a new stadium, they just take their ball and go somewhere else. imo, the only way Sacramento holds onto its team is if public or media outcry is strong enough.
    Which seemed to be the case until Seattle upped the ante by a few hundred million. And it's a question of whether the stadium should truly be a private project or civic project. Makes much more sense for a city to fund a stadium like that so as to attract the NBA and also performers and other attractions to bring revenue into the city. I don't really quite understand the gripe of taxing citizens to fund something like that, having the Thunder come to OKC has done wonders with injecting money into the city as well as attracting bigger names in show business.

    Obviously you care enough to post in a thread I made; either share your opinion in regards to the topic or kindly shut the up and show yourself out the door.

    It's probably the cheap ass Mexican food and hot wings I've been chowing down on in Arizona; these playoffs always make me put on a bit of weight. The temperature being in the hundreds isn't helpful either.

    Most owners are quite well positioned financially with the last CBA, they're not cash strapped enough to be easily swayed and bought with that last effort of "bribery" by the Maloofs & their Seattle group collaborator. When your bottom line is secure, your ego & pride will come out first, and that might be the strongest determinant factor in settling this issue among ownerships BOG.

    I want to be more educated & clear regarding the issue. The ownership BOG/NBA can't deny a sale to the highest bidder -out of anti trust issue, but they CAN forbid a team moving to other city, correct ?? But then the new, non local owner can form a similar formula used by Clay Bennet to steal a franchise and move it to its intended city, by raping the city in the rear regarding the new demanded arena deal, CMIIW.

    if it was only about money to the NBA, he would already own the Kings...
    not true. It's been reported what swung the owners to Sac was Vivek Ranadive's promise to not take any revenue sharing from the league. That meant a direct contribution to the yearly bottom line of every other team in the program's system in perpetuity. Millions of dollars. No matter what anybody says, It is always about money.

    The only way Seattle gets the Kings at this point is if Hansen's group offers every owner a "relocation fee" payment in the $5M-$10M range in addition to what they pay the Maloofs.
