OC Register: Kings end bid to move to Anaheim
- Thread starter RookieOfTheDay
- Start date
Not until it's "official," at least for me. With all the twists and turns so far, I am not getting too excited or too "low" until I hear it from MSE directly. And I won't be really excited until March 1 rolls around and the team announces it is staying for good with a new arena in the works.
Edit: Spike was less verbose and beat me to the punch.

It's starting to look like they won't challenge the NBA. First smart move they made. It's going to be necessary for an entire city to forget all the drama and move forward with our reluctant owners who defnitely feel like they're being held hostage. Prepare to hold your noses as more lies start coming our way. And yes this is what winning feels like for now.
KJ and ICON, you're about to go to bat again.

It's official. The Kings are staying.

Just got off phone with Gavin Maloof. Bullet items: Burkle should mind his own biz,not in danger of selling, arena issue must be resolved..
or this will happen next year, they were given an apology by Lakers coach Phil Jackson for his comments.
Gavin also wanted to make sure it was known that he called Kevin Johnson before talking to the media.

They are doing this because it's "the right thing to do" or because "ticket holders were reaching out" to them? Please. Maloofs, to think that we would believe such a thing is just one more indication of how stupid you are...
