Recommended Posts

1.Move the Bobcats to Seattle. Name them the Sonics

2. Move Kings to Charlotte. Keep name. It works in charlotte ( Queen City). Bobcat " history" is forgotten

Never mind that

Move the Thunder back to Seattle as the Sonics

Move the Bobcats to OKC, rename them to "OUTLAWZZ"

Move the Jazz to New Orleans

Move the Hornets to Charlotte

Move the Kings to Salt Lake City

And then swap all the rosters and boom :upside::P

Looks like Chris Hansen means business, he's already started a website, facebook & twitter

http://www.sonicsarena.com/

Also, something is happening at 4 P.M. on June 14th.

The proposed West Side Stadium in New York City for the Olympics and Jets also had a website. :rolleyes:

Still makes me sad.

Still forced to share a soulless stadium with the Giants.

Football stadiums don't really have "souls." That big white box doesn't, either.

I agree that none of them are very unique and different from other football stadiums, like baseball stadiums are from each other, but you walk into a 1 team stadium and you know who plays there. There colors, logos, players are plastered everywhere. It's not like that at MetLife Stadium. It's a gray concrete box.

As is the proposed Jets stadium.

and you would know this how? It was never built. We have no idea what it would of looked like inside.

But it would have had proud, prominent Jets logos on it, which is more than we can say for the Meadowlands.

Anyone driving by who is unfamiliar with the stadium, sport or team would still instantly know who plays there. Again, more than we can say for the oh-so-carefully neutral Meadowlands.

The Sonics rally is today even a few familiar face were there, including Gary Payton, Shawn Kemp, Nate Robinson & the man behind this, Chris Hansen. Other news, it seems that the arena has gotten some big investors already. Such as Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer & the Nordstrom brothers.

Bit of an update on the situation, stressing that this is going to take 5-7 years, but they do expect the timetable of constructing an arena and having an NBA team to relocate to Seattle could correlate nicely.

And surely King David would let Sonics 2.0 take up residence in Key Arena for 2-3 years like Memphis and Charlotte with "old" arenas if shovels are in the ground. ^_^

The bigger question is what team would be on the move? If anything the NBA is in need of retraction more than expansion, so it's rough.

Don't see contraction happening for two reasons: players union, and the other owners not wanting to buy a team out of existance

My proposal of contraction was merely hypothetical to the league's talent pool, not a real suggestion.

But getting back to the point, is there a team that could fit the bill for a 2017/2018 relocation? Kings? Bucks? Cavs?
