Damn, $625 million for the Kings, imagine if the Knicks or Lakers were up for sale
It really has nothing to do with the Kings though. Seattle wants a team and they're the only team for sale so they keep raising their bid trying to get it.

It's all about the inches
I just don't get the nba. Why do they even want a team in sacramento? Not like they selling out every gm like they use to. Seattle is clearly the better city for a team. Instead of contracting the Hornets, they doubled down on that mistake. Same with Charlotte. Its too many damn teams.

Contraction = your league is suffering. That's why the NBA won't do it. It's hard to brag about how great your league is and how it can rival the most popular sport in the world when you literally have to close up shop in a location with nowhere to put it.

The scary part is Ballmer is seriously an NBA fanatic. He wouldn't hesitate to get close to a billion for the Sonics.
It's only going to get crazier. There is so much money to me made from local television deals that team values will skyrocket. It's debatable whether a bubble is bring created...but the fact that live sports is essentially the last remaining DVR-immune show on television allows them massive power with regards to ad money, etc.
I think I read somewhere that on average, about $16 of every cable bill goes directly to MLB

Sometimes you have to do whats best for the league and the future not obsess over image or what its looks like
Hopefully Silver will be more logical and not a napoleoinc tyrant more worried about image then what is actually going on like Stern

Man, cities jsut want a winning brand of basketball. Minnesota crowd has been loud the alst two season, and they were decent when KG had them winning(in the regular season)
Milwaukee had a great passionate crowd to in the early 2000's when the big three was there. I Love the sarcastic cheer they used to give when Ervin Johnson would actually make a play.
Fans are just smart now. They dont want to support franchises that are badly ran. I cant blame em.
