Maloofs could make a deal with a private contractor to get an arena, but they are trying to get the tax payers to pay for it. No, I don't think they are getting an arena if they are relying on public funding, CA can't sacrifice that kind of money right now.
Lakers fans LOVE this topic it seems. With the current resurgence of the franchise i think people are enthusiastic enough to get a new arena for the Kings in sacramento .

There was a article on our local paper a few days ago, stating that Sacramento is trying to strike a deal for a new arena quickly because the fear of moving the team to Vegas is actually moving closer from a wild rumor to actually being a reality.
