Guest Report post Posted February 26, 2006 Sonics Serious About A Move To San Jose NY Daily News - 02/26 - 11:30 AM EST The Seattle SuperSonics ' intentions to move to San Jose are serious, but the league remains opposed to putting another team in Golden State's neighborhood. San Jose played host to the Warriors for one season in the late-90's while the Oakland Arena was being remodeled. It is the biggest city in the San Francisco Bay Area and has had success supporting the Sharks of the NHL. Kings To Anaheim? NY Daily News - 02/26 - 11:20 AM EST Having their bid for a new arena rejected more than once by Sacramento voters, Kings owners Gavin and Joe Maloof have quietly let it be known that they'd like to relocate to Anaheim. In Orange County, the Maloofs would be closer to their operations in Las Vegas. They already have plans to use an Anaheim location to drive their marketing for their hotel and casino, The Palms. That includes giving high-rollers use of luxury suites for Kings games and also having plenty of signage in the arena for their Vegas enterprises. The Maloofs can easily afford the franchise transfer fee, which experts say will be at least double the $30 million the Hornets paid the league to flee Charlotte for New Orleans. But the Maloofs will face strong opposition from the Lakers and Clippers, who will fight a third team entering what they consider their backyard. WHAT THE FUCK? Yeah, the Lakers should win, but they always lose to these garbage teams on the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2006 Dammit fuck that. Give OKC a team. They won't let us keep the Hornets and we've proved that we can handle and support an NBA team. Send one over here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted February 26, 2006 That's where the Sonics will go if they aren't allowed to move to California. They only want to move there because San Jose sports fans are like sheep and will support anything. That's a good thing, but we don't need to see so much of the league in CA.

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted February 26, 2006 I wish there were a way to bar any team from moving to Anaheim. Seriously, what a shitty town, and it's only worse that it's still within the confines of the L.A. area.. where the Clippers have learned that they can't draw anyone because of it being Lakertown..

LivingLegendGaryColeman 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2006 That would be awesome if we ended up with the Los Angeles Kings of Anaheim. Haha, that's the last thing we need... I really don't like seeing any of these teams move, especially Seattle based on how long the franchise has been there, but I'd think the Kings would be the front-runner to the Las Vegas sweepstakes. I mean, the Maloofs are already in Vegas, this would tie it together more. Places like Sacramento can't lose a franchise though. What else will they do there? Cow-tipping is only fun for so long...

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted February 27, 2006 Man that was a bonehead foul by Kobe at the end. So far, I seem like I'm right. Lakers are a total pretender team this year. I'm okay with Odom, Parker, and Kobe in the starting lineup, but Mihm and Cook are strictly good bench players and not much else, and Kwame just straight out sucks. Having Butler around wouldn't make things any better either though, so I understand why that trade was made. But they really need to upgrade at PF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted February 27, 2006 Turiaf will either be the next Ben Wallace (yes, I fucking said it), or Danny Fortson. He might be the PF the Lakers need down the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted February 27, 2006 I wouldn't say Ben Wallace, but Danny Fortson or even Rashard Lewis, maybe. I did see some impressive things about him today. Frontcourt players are never outright impressive their first season, anyways, but maybe Turiaf will get his act together. It's a feel-good story too, with the whole heart surgery thing and all. Or was that Von Wafer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted February 27, 2006 Heart surgery was Turiaf, and I just love what he brings to the court. I'm probably overreacting, but anyone who can play like he did in his 6th game and 1st getting decent playing time deserves the highest praise from me. From what I've seen of him in college, his ceiling is Wallace, and worst case scenario he'll be a Fortson type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ripper 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2006 Yah...what the fuck...Rashard Lewis? But Turiaf, I see the Ben Wallace in him. Fortson could be Ben Wallace but he has no timing on blocking shots. He can only own the boards. Turiaf has the ability to do both. Bynum, Turiaf, Odem, Bryant and some unnamed big point guard are the lakers future starting lineup.
