    Who's next? We ain't leaving. Maloofs will eventually have to sell.

    And dont give me the BS argument of us being a bad fan base. Just don't. Why would anyone in their right mind support these assclowns (maloofs) when they deliberately try to sabotage this city, lie, have continuous extremely low pay roll, and dont care about the product they put on the floor. Show us you care (maloofs), and we will show that we care. The team doesnt have to be good, just SHOW us you are actually TRYING to put a good product on the floor and not cut costs every chance you get.

    Sonics! Sonics! Sonics! Sonics! Sonics! Lets see that green and gold in the NBA again.

    Jason Collins claims he is the first openly gay NBA player despite the fact we witnessed the entire league bend the Lakers over all season.

    I just dont understand why you Seattle fans would want what happened to your team to happen to another... Granted it isn't the SAME situation, but we love our Kings

    I empathize, I really do. And I know how much it sucks... But I mean, I still want my team back.

    If everything was perfect, we get OUR team back from OKC and everything goes back to the way it should be. But we all know that's not gonna happen, so I have to hold out hope for the next best thing... Which is the Kings.

    I'd be a Seattle Kings (Sonics) whatever fan if it happened...just wouldn't feel the same attachment as I do now, it being my home team and all. If we do eventually have to move, i pray you guys aren't burdened with the maloofs. i wouldnt wish them upon my worst enemy

    Yeah, as most on this forum now... I'm a 'weird' OKC fan. I don't know how else to put it. I want my Sonics back, I hate that they're in OKC, but I still root for them. It's mainly because of the players though. I want Durant to put together a legacy, and the only way for me to root for him to do that is to root for OKC. It sucks.

    I'd basically have two teams if Kings moved to Seattle, with the Sonics obviously being much more important to me.

    Honestly, that's what sucks about any relocation - there are diehard fans that get screwed. My viewpoint though is that if someone has to lose a team it should be somewhere where there are other rooting options i.e. Florida has 2 teams, Texas has 3, California has 4. Ideally, it'd be the Clippers moving to Seattle.

    That's what SHOULD happen. LA is the Lakers' city.

    Ideally, give Seattle their team back and ship the Clippers to OKC. That's what needs to happen.

    Why? Because who would pass up a team just so a fan base in another city would be able to keep their team. People are greedy. TBH as long as Seattle gets a team back IDGAF about Sacramento fans, i know im a dick lol

    I had the Grizzlies AND the Sonics ripped away from me making the closest drive to an NBA game over five hours away so im bitter.

    It's hard to put yourself in someone elses shoes but I bet if the Kings move and then another team opts to move to Sacramento you wouldnt think twice about welcoming them back

    This is basically what it boils down to.

    If the Kings move to Seattle... Sacramento can have my sympathy and pity, but in all honesty I'll cherish the move.
