San Diego doesn't have a team... How long has it been since YOU'VE watched, Chris?


The Clippers use the LA arena but in my mind they are still SD.
In my mind they are still the Buffalo Braves..With Bob McAdoo..

Cinncinnati still had a team when I was little, Oscar Robinson played for them. They were called the Royals, I was born in their last year of existence.

Oh and don't forget the KC Omaha Kings, which were the Cinncinati team and the New Orleans Jazz. Still don't know why Utah has kept that name, much better then Pelicans.

Pelicans tried to get the Jazz name from Utah, Utah said no.

Bobcats become the Hornets next season though.

I know this probably wont happen, but since Sterling (ya know the racist pile of shit from the LA Clippers) is banned from the NBA and will be forced to sell I wish we could get this team up in Seattle. It's a great team (all horrible actions aside from their owner) and would be great for the NBA to get rid of the Clippers and their history. I'm sure Magic Johnson and his team of billionaires will get it, but here's to hoping.

As long as Adam Silver is the commish the odds of Seattle getting a team will be tough. Silver is the guy who blocked the Hansen team from getting the Kings. Everyone thinks it was Stern but it really was Silver who wanted to keep the Kings in Sacramento.

I don't really care, as soon as the SoDo arena gets built, the Key's usefulness is finished, multimillion dollar upgrades or not.

That guy in the article seems to really want hockey and has the means to make it happen..If using Key for a while gets it into Seattle then good..Maybe other things will fall into place and everyone can be happy..As for the Clips.Magic will probaly get them and you know they are not leaving LA..That city can support 2 teams ..It has supported multiple baseball and football teams..I myself want the Sonics back and give Oklahoma an expansion team like they should have in the first place...Only way I ever support that NBA..Otherwise I am a hockey fan..
