Yep. Every time they just threaten move to Seattle to get more leverage.

Has been a great move for the NBA to drive up value and get new arenas built.

I say this as a lifelong Sonics fan and David Stern hater.

Good news Seattle sports fans. The NBA might come back. How does the Seattle suns sound to you?

Vegas!

Hate to see any city lose their team

Huge Manatee

12/12/18 11:22am

I agree. Expand by two, Seattle and Vegas. Move Grizzlies to east.

Twin Roots

12/12/18 11:48am

If a team moved east, it would be Minny

BrutustheBrash

Hopefully Phoenix does not lose their team. I would

Seattle Suns sounds like a joke

Kind of like the Utah Jazz did when they moved from New Orelans.

Jdoc

12/12/18 11:31am

Or the Los Angeles Lakers

Great38

12/12/18 11:39am

Seriously, why did they keep that name? Did the Jazz really have a brand then?

NOCAL_YFAN

12/12/18 11:40am

I don’t know why they kept the name. Could be that

Jdoc

12/12/18 11:44am

Sarver is awful. I wouldn't wish him on any city.

Blue Cat

12/12/18 11:22am

Seriously, Seattle can have him and the team at this point. They are so bad.

scall

12/12/18 11:24am

Sarver has destroyed the Sun's. It's sad

Adrielle

12/12/18 4:01pm

Well we've never actually seen the sun, but we're looking forward to it!

Vincent's Picks

12/12/18 11:22am

They would have to be the Seattle Never Suns

BeefNoodleCoug

12/12/18 11:24am

Seattle Suns sounds as appropriate as Utah Jazz

AD4

12/12/18 11:25am

If that is what it takes to get rid of Sarver, I am all for it.

crack

12/12/18 11:26am

Well... it's not the Utah Never Jazz.... so why not The Seattle Suns.

ClackamasCoug

12/12/18 11:26am

The LA lakers are just as egregious.

Mayor of Cougartown

12/12/18 12:05pm

That's right - it's a conspiracy. And what is a Nickerbocker any way?

ClackamasCoug

12/12/18 3:38pm

If the Suns leave, I can see the Coyotes leave as well.

JohnnyComeLately

12/12/18 11:26am

Probably not to Seattle as they just got a team approved

monkeycowboy

12/12/18 11:27am

Well of course. I dont think any Phoenix franchise is really safe.

JohnnyComeLately

12/12/18 11:29am

This is the first year in a while that the Cards haven't sold out.

Blue Cat

12/12/18 11:31am

Which is dumb cause Quebec City would sell out every game to return the Nordiques

JohnnyComeLately

12/12/18 11:59am

Seriously. There was a study done showing Toronto could support three better

Maybe they will go through with moving to Portland, then.

No one cares about hockey

Mr. Belding

12/12/18 11:27am

Well Belding, im gonna step to the side here. You enjoy that native american curse.

monkeycowboy

12/12/18 11:29am

Not true. I'll start caring about hockey in 2021.

Vincent's Picks

12/12/18 12:00pm

Not sure why, they play in different arenas. In fact, the Suns leaving might

chilango

Talking Stick is built for basketball not hockey.

Blue Cat

12/12/18 11:44am

If the building is empty, then maybe they could reconfigure it or gut it and

chilango

12/12/18 11:57am

Agree.

Blue Cat

12/12/18 11:59am

Rumblings are that Tillman Fertitta might buy them and move them to Houston

mannheimadler

12/12/18 11:48am

I thought they were moved just because they didnt want to split the Alberta rivalry between Edmonton and Calgary

Seattle Suns is almost as bad as Utah Jazz.

Seattle is just the City owners use to leverage cities into giving up the $$$

Memmo

12/12/18 11:40am

Yep. Every time they just threaten move to Seattle to get more leverage.

BYUHawk

12/12/18 11:45am

same thing with the NFL and vegas... oh wait.

Mayor of Cougartown

12/12/18 12:06pm

Vegas will get an NBA team eventually I'm sure. Las Vegas Suns works.

pink22

12/12/18 11:51am

While I would support the team and be a fan, I much prefer expansion. It sucked

James Halpert

12/12/18 12:00pm

Expansion unfortunately won’t happen for a while

I've seen reports that both Memphis and New Orleans are struggling and could be

Charlotte is the other one that I've seen

BrutustheBrash

I'd love to see expansion in Seattle and Vegas

Sounds like very wishful thinking. Seattle Lefties...

lightmann

12/12/18 12:36pm

So you want to rob another city of its team?

mannheimadler

12/12/18 1:14pm

Well, not exactly rob . . . . and not the Suns, they'll rise again.

lightmann

No chance that happens.
