Anyone wanna call the shot? Time and outcome... anything to kill time while we wait!

I have that same feeling in my gut that I used to get playing football before kickoff... Not because I think it won't go our way, I remain confident, but because my nerves are going a little crazy right now.

I just have a feeling with the lawsuit that came out yesterday the mkney we are putting into this.

I just don't see how we come away with nothing. Has there been an ownership group this prepared, qualified and ready to build an arena in any sport that's been denied and walked away with nothing?

Probably. Nobody would remember the failed attempts, really.

I'm right there with you but we're talking about David Stern being involved...

I can see this happening, NBA keeps team in Sacramento, pays Maloofs the difference in price out of their coffers to eliminate any litigation of Anti Trust, awards Seattle Expansion team in 2015 season.

I just can't see expansion happening... especially after Ballmer's attitude towards it after the recommendation

Everyone is reading too much into that. His attitude has nothing to do with it. If the NBA feels it will make all the owners wealthy they will expand. The only problem with expansion is that there are other teams that are on the bubble as far as being money-makers already, just not on the brink of being relocated as the kings were. There's a saturation of low-earners.

Completely on the edge of my seat. Every time there's a new tweet that leads with a positive or negative word I overreact. At least I'm home from work now.

Being a Seattle sports fan my whole life is keeping me from getting my hopes up right now...
