The current owners did all the prerequisite moaning about how the community wouldn't give them the Key to The City, A Golden Crown, and kiss their royal behinds..

Not to mention the bazillion dollars these teams are always trying to extort.

That's OK, you are welcome to the Trailblazers. (Lucky you!)

Note to new owners: Canning Wally Walker would be a start (get in line)

We here in Memphis know ALL about that. Michael Heisley, owner of the Grizzlies, and also of Memphis, has gotten his way ever since the powers that be prostituted themselves at his altar of greed. One thing he got was a no-complete clause that forbids any event from coming here if it conflicts with the Grizzlies sked. As a result, the Tunica casinos and The DeSoto Civic Center are cleaning up. Please, Oklahoma, don't fall into that trap if the Sonics are moved there. You will lose bigtime.
