Sonics are not coming back

I wouldn't advise the Blazers move to Seattle.
First big that arrives there will promptly get a career ending knee injury

Gotta make you wanker Bloozers on here sweat a little.
FWIW, Jody Allen is from Seattle and already turned Uncle Phil down once. Would be pretty hilarious if she turns him down again for a Seattle-based group.

Fuck Portland in general, but I wouldn’t support stealing the Blazers. The Sonics leaving killed my interest in the NBA, and I don’t want to see that happen to another city, even one I loathe.
-
Eh I'm pretty confident that Knight or whoever is going to step in as a civic duty thing since it's the only pro team in the state. Jodie isn't doing anything she wants, she's just executing what Paul Allen a massive bloozer who was constantly in the luxury cap mandated before he died.
The reason for them not selling before was that due to the complexity of his estate they needed a lot more time and jumped the gun.
-
I think that NBA teams that have actually wanted to sell are simply trying to do it before they do get to 32 teams.
They're still meeting this summer to discuss adding Seattle and Vegas.
-
Or adding a team in Mexico City and another in London.
-
I think they were also waiting for the Celtics sale to finalize and move the market value way up for a second/third tier market team
-
Only pro team in the state, come on. Nike and Fill run and finance an entire athletic department. This is the biggest conflict of interest in the entire NCAA.
-
It's gotta be exhausting being the #1 Seattle Sports court jester as a full-time job.
Your market is over-saturated as it is and you will bitch and get apathetic about the league just as fast as any other non-LA fanbase once the 1-2 honeymoon seasons are over.

More likely is that people would tune out hockey. NOC about hockey.
