Suns Owner Threatening to Move Team to Seattle/Las Vegas

Of course he is.

Las Vegas is a **** hole, not sure why they would want to go there.

Seattle? I'm sure they are interested.

 

Man, Sarver is an ass. I feel sorry for Suns fans. At one point they had MDA and Steve Kerr and now they have an owner who isn't willing to spend a dime but expects butts in the seats and a winning record. Awesome.

 

don't think "Seattle Suns" is going to cut it . . . they'll have to change it to the Seattle Cloudy Days

 

Because T-Mobile Arena is the best arena in the land

 

If any city deserves a team, it’s Seattle.

 

No hockey stadium qualifies as best basketball stadium in the land.

200' x 85' -- NHL
94' x 50' -- NBA

When designed for basketball...seats are right on top of the court...and gets very loud.

 

Nooooooo then what the **** am I going to do! I love going to the damn games.

 

So Tilman is trying to take their NHL team from them and move them to Houston, and now this!

Talking Stick Arena about to turn into Walking Dead Arena

The city of Seattle owns the Supersonics naming rights and records. It was part of the deal to get them to move to OKC. Any team moving to Seattle would become the Sonics

 

Seattle Suns in the Cold?

 

Look at the lower bowl of this preseason game, better than the Rockets



And..



And..
NBA Summer League is in Vegas every year

And
99ers

 

NBA Game at T-Mobile
Packed to the rafters



Rockets preseason games in Houston never get filled up.

 

On one hand I hope Seattle gets a new NBA team. On the other hand, if the owner of said team is Robert Sarver......

 

I miss having Seattle around especially as a rival, but not at the expense of Phoenix because we'll just be wishing they had their team back all the same. California has too many teams. Just make the Kings move to Vegas, and move the Clippers to Seattle to become the Sonics and everything is fixed. Though i still don't get the point of teams like Minnesota and Milwaukee when there's much bigger markets to be had. Neither has that much of a history with this league even if Milwaukee has been around forever-i'd rather see some bigger cities with their own teams.

SO- I wouldn't have a single care to give if Sacramento, Clippers, Minnesota, Milwaukee, Utah(Jazz back to NO) or Dallas lost their teams.

 

Vegas would be like a home court game for the Lakers and Warriors.

 

The Clippers SHOULD be the team to move, they will alway be in the shadow of the Lakers.

The Kings just got a brand new arena, so they aren't going anywhere.

To Seattle or Vegas.

 

That should be held as an exception.

It's the best team in the league vs. the newly crowned King of LA making his debut with the Lakers.

 

Can you explain why the lower bowl in NBA summer league is more packed with Rockets fans than last night's Rockets game?

And the arena is amazing, it can accommodate any event and any sport.

Same place where the big fights, boxing and MMA are being held.

 

I do think there's a connection here...but the Coyotes actually don't play in the arena the Suns play in. They play in Glendale. But I do think the timing isn't a coincidence. No city wants to lose two teams at the same time...so that helps ramp up the pressure on local leadership.

 

Just like it's going to be for most visiting teams playing the Raiders...particularly the Chargers and Broncos, division rivals.
