I think you're right, but he is no different than any of us that say enough is enough. Plus he gets his freeOriginally Posted by Scientific Method
Perk and I both wish he would have finished that one.
Is that Derek Harper I hear working the Pacers game? And I thought Paul George was one of the players who said he is going to boycott Jordans. He has on 10s
It's kind of complicated. KeyArena had been considered "dated" by the league within a half decade of its remodel. Howard Schultz lobbied the city and tax payers for help but they wouldn't budge, especially after Safeco and Qwest Field. He was stuck with a bad situation (mainly the lease) at KeyArena. The Sonics were losing $15 million per season towards the end of the Schultz era (this was told to me by one of the members of the ownership group). And it had nothing to do with lack of fan support, either, which was also told to me. In 2005, their last great run in Seattle, they still lost tons of money. Stern demanded they build a new arena, Schultz tried to comply, but didn't get anywhere.Originally Posted by ATGD7154xBBxMZ
Was the problem that they wouldn't get a new arena before? I just figure when a team moves or is contracted nobody wants to buy the team and their sales are insanely low.Originally Posted by dmbrhs
Looks like arena talks in Seattle have progressed much farther than anyone knew. Damn.

Thanks for the info. Messed up situation for the fans but I can understand not wanting to foot the bill of a new arena.
Its only like an hour and a half drive away from Chicago....and Bucks tickets are cheaper and easier to obtain than Bulls tickets...Originally Posted by Mr Marcus

Shocking that you would come in here with your ******ed argument again. 16,000 in a 17,000 seat arena is still 94% full. Thanks for playing though.Originally Posted by Scientific Method

My nuts, let'em breathe please.
You also left out the last 2 yrs of paltry 16,000 and 13,500 average attendance.

[h1]Clippers set sights on signing J.R. Smith[/h1]
Reporting from Washingtonâ
The Clippers, still not done dealing after signing Kenyon Martin on Friday, will pursue guard J.R. Smith after the team he plays on in the Chinese Basketball Assn. finishes its season and he becomes eligible to play in the NBA, said a person not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
The Clippers aren't getting enough production off the bench behind small forward Caron Butler and feel as if Smith can provide the team with a big scoring punch at the position, the person said.
Smith, a 6-6 wing player, averaged 12.5 points on 42.8% shooting, including 37.1% from three-point range, during his seven-year NBA career with New Orleans and Denver.
He would be an unrestricted free agent that the Clippers could sign to the mini-mid-level exception of $2.5 million, or for the veteran minimum of about $1 million.
Under the CBA rules, Smith still can't return to the NBA until his Zhejiang Golden Bulls team's season is over. If the Golden Bulls miss the playoffs, it could open the door for Smith to return to the NBA by the All-Star weekend, Feb. 25-26.
The New York Knicks and Lakers reportedly also have interest in Smith.
But the Clippers like their chances because Smith played withChris Paul in New Orleans and with Chauncey Billups and Martin in Denver.
The Clippers have a 15-man roster and would have to waive a player to make room for Smith.
