Sacramento Kings moving to LA
Anaheim to be exact. Starting next year. So the LA area will have 3 NBA teams and 0 football teams. Why has the 2nd largest market in the country not had a football team for so many years? Makes no sense at all. 3 NBA teams there makes no sense at all either. They should move to Seattle instead.
Yeah moving the team to Anaheim is fuckn dumb. Now they will have 3 NBA teams like you said, basically in the same spot. Why not keep the same fan base and move to San Jose or somethin?
I usually don't get upset when a team moves, but those fans in Sacramento are gettin hosed. Some of the most loyal fans in any sport.
We don't want those putos down here.....
keep them in sac...so-cal has too many teams already
I feel horrible for the fans of Sacramento, I went through this whole thing just a few years ago in Seattle. Sac has some great fans, and i always though Arco was one of the toughest arenas to play a road game in.
In all honesty though, Sac's situation doesn't even compare to the magnitude of Seattle situation. But I wish the Sactown king fans the best of luck, and hopefully they pull a miracle and keep the team.
Sum crazy vatos there ya know!!Originally Posted by King Mayan
stupid move, would have been better to move the team to a city that does not already have an NBA team.
Less fans and It will not make them any better, sweet
What a joke. I hope this does not happen.
100% agree...they should move to somewhere else.
What is the reason for the move?
It would be nice to hear "The San Diego Kings" or keep the Kings in Anaheim and hear, "The San Diego Clippers" where they started off at.
Part of the reason I think is an economic one. Sacramento and surrounding cow town cities have been voted as one of the top 5 worst cities to live in.
With high unemployment rates, where do people get their money for a little bit of leisure time in basketball?
So they move to Anaheim and I'm sure the folk down south have more money to spend than them folks in Sac. The bids are out and the final wordings will be heard on Monday I think.
it s ok
Why not move the team to St Louis, San Diego or Pittsburgh probably would get more support than a city that already has two teams.
la has one team, the clippers don't count
USC is considered their football team, or at least for the past decade.
Plus the homies from the hood still ride around in Black, and silver.
i live in the philippines and there's a news article out in the local news about the sacramento team being offered to one of our prominent businessmen here. dunno if they're just trying to fill the news with interesting stuff though haha
guess that makes LA the basketball capital of the world.
The owners would move to San Jo or Seattle if they had the $$. These muthafuckas ain't really wealthy no more. Not much of a choice. NBA needs to block the move and start revenue sharing.
My folks was at the game telling me how everyone was emotional. Sac has had the best fans since 85 IMO ... Coming from a Lakers fan
whats so bad about it? theyll sell out every game and make tons of money.
anaheim is an hour away from downtown la and fans there do not like to be associated with la fans.
Exactly. Although I could give a shit that they're moving 40 minutes from my home, the Maloof's realize that there is a lot more money to be made in Orange County. TV/Radio deals, advertising, luxury boxes, ticket prices, etc. etc. Honda Center is also a top notch facility.
Anaheim Royals
Anaheim is NOT LA. Anaheim is OC. OC has a market to support a basketball/football/baseball/hockey/what have you team. Ducks and Angels are doing just fine, Royals will be fine as well.
they should stay in Sac town...man I remember when they were good...they had a great team...with the cow bells....it was great...they got robbed by the Lakers and the NBA
maloofs still unsure if they'll file for a transfer. lakers owner to try hard to stop the move.

Unreal.
Why not Kansas City, St. Louis, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Columbus, Austin,
why not contract them? the nba has enough bad teams. maloofs are poor by nba owner standards. very strong chance harrahs will own the palms by end of year.
o.c. can support an nba franchise.
no nfl in la because quite frankly the fans don't show up. weather too nice to be at over expensive game. chargers are a playoff team year in/year out and they have a gang of blacked out local games.
Because you can profit the same way the Clippers do down here. They are one of the most unsuccessful but still profitable NBA team in the league. Sterling doesnt know how to run a winning NBA team but he sure knows how to run a profitable business.
Anaheim city counsel has already approved the 75 million dollar bond for the Royals move. Its just a matter of time now.
Wow guys-it is all about the $$$$$ SAC. HAS NO LUXURY boxes-Anaheim has quite a few. Sacramento will not build a new arena to put those in-loyalty means nothing-it is all about the money-greed and more greed.
You can not get a loyal fan base if your stadium is too far for people to go see your games. In Northern California, the heavy populated areas are either Sacramento or the Bay Area and the bay area already has golden state warrior so if there is a zoning law, they don't want them kings to take away their customers.
If you go any higher like Eureka or them redwoods town, add up all the population and you wouldn't even fit them into a stadium for a sell out crowd. LOL
If you go any lower than the bay or to Fresno, there is no other surrounding cities that are big enough and populations wise to have a game.
If you go to Southern California, you have clippers and lakers all taking up most of the spots. San Diego might sound good but then again, the team will be called the San Diego Tacos. LOL
Basically, every big metropolitan in California is all booked up. If you fail in Sacramento, might as well try to open shop in another Metropolitan cities that have enough people to fill them stadium and start a new fan base there.
All them Kings fans, I'm sorry but without kings around, what are you going to do now? Are you going to jump ship because the closest to any game for you is in Oakland.
I'll wait to see the day when sac fans will go to oakland at a sac/warriors game just to cheer on them kings. 50/50 split fans down the middle in that house, now that's a ball game.
If you ever want to see how fu**ed up the NBA and David Stern is. Watch this: www.sonicsgate.org/movie
It's a 2 hour documentary that is very well made and very good production with a ton of interviews with people like George Karl, Aaron Brookes, Jamal Crawford, Gary Payton and many more. Shows how Stern literally screwed every fan in Seattle over, and he is doing the same to Sacramento.
No team in the NBA is safe, unless you are the Lakers, Knicks or Celtics.
