What should I do if my Kings relocate?

Discussion for professional sporting events/teams and players.

This would be a great place to discuss the Super Bowl, the NBA Playoffs or whatever else.

What should I do if my Kings relocate?

Post by Mars »


NBA: The Sacramento Kings' owners, the Maloofs, are considering moving the team from northern California to Anaheim, in soCal. I'm from SacTown, so that's "my" hometown team. The move would also give southern Cali THREE NBA teams, with the Lakers and the Clippers already down there.

So where would that leave me, as a fan? Do I continue to root for the team that stabbed us Sac-ies in the back? Do I root for the Warriors, California's "forgotten" professional basketball team? Do I root for the Lakers, since my wife is from the L.A. area and her family members are all fans? Do I root for the Clippers, since they hate the Lakers like I always have? Or do I even consider rooting for the Utah Jazz, since I'm already a BYU fan? OR, do I give up on the NBA entirely and not root for anyone, like how I treat pro hockey?


What do you guys think- What would you do if the Jazz moved to Anaheim?

Welp sir, that is quite the quandary. If the Jazz moved at this point I would drop them like a bad habit, my tolerance as a fan has worn extremely thin as is. It might be a good chance for you to get out of the most fixed professional sport in the country and just cut ties with the whole David Stern Lakers vs. Lakers disaster. If you can't though, which would be understandable as there are still entertaining games and good players despite all the BS that goes on behind the scenes, I might take a chance on the Clippers. They're entertaining as all get out to watch because of Griffin and they might just be headed in the right direction.


I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

I like Griffin. He's a guy that I could definitely root for. Just like the big guy with the Thunder. But that makes them both just one free agency away from being unwatchable.

The Warriors are in southern California? I never considered the San Francisco/Oakland area to be southern California.

You got me there! Shows how much I follow the Warriors. Also how dumb their name "Golden State" is.
