Kings To Stay In Sacramento Through 2011-12

Sources: Kings consider relocation

Quote:

The Sacramento Kings are seriously considering the possibility of applying to the NBA by the league's March 1 deadline for relocation to Anaheim for next season, according to sources with knowledge of the team's thinking. The Kings haven't made a final decision, but sources said team officials have been in Orange County, Calif., this month to gather more first-hand data on the feasibility and potential obstacles involved in trying to move to Anaheim's Honda Center at season's end after a 26-season run in Sacramento and numerous failed attempts to secure the financing needed for the construction of a new modern arena.

I would love the Kings to come back to Kansas City, but obviously I'm a little biased. I think the city could support a team at least as well as Sacramento does. But Anaheim doesn't really make sense to me. Why would they want to put essentially a third team in LA? A historically losing team in the Clippers already has a hard time competing with the Lakers, and the Kings aren't gonna be good right away. Just seems like a weird choice to me.

Seems like we'll be getting another team here... Greeeaaattttttt.

It wouldn't really be a third team in LA, Orange County is a completely different area/beast.

However I still would think it's not needed. F'n Clippers are already here... we don't need three teams. God.

Concur. I was thinking yesterday, about the Clippers moving their *** back to San Diego, or to Seattle, with Griffin not in the fold, they could own those cities, 3 teams in such close proximity would just be absurd.

I'm also biased We need a team in missouri. we both kansas city an st.louis have had a NBA team once upon a time. If kansas city gets a team I guarantee me an people from st.louis would support the team as well.

The move to Anaheim wouldn't make sense. If they want to stay in California then they should go to San Diego. The place that makes the MOST sense though would be Kansas City. Why there isn't a team in the heartland of America makes no sense to me.

Wouldn't be my first choice, but if the Kings came to Anaheim that would be great. Would love to watch them on TV every night, and since all the people here are consumed by the Lakers, it'd be enjoyable. And, it'd be two Suns games I could attend without having to pay like 300 bucks a seat like I would have to if I decided to be stupid and go to watch them when they play the Lakers.

being biased also, i'd love to see them move back to Cincinnati

as if Southern California need any more professional sport teams...

Send the Kings to Anaheim and send the Clippers back to Buffalo and call them the...(wait for it)...

Buffalo Braves!



Blake Griffin could really rock the 70's powder blues...

Ain't gonna happen, but that would be really, really cool...
