    It was a random google image search. But this is the latest rendering of their arena.

    The RG is definitely looking its age with these new era arenas.

    I still love the rose garden. Mainly because the fans are sooooo hairy!

    Our hair to surface area ratio halves when you watch the game there.

    I do wish the Rose Garden had an update on it's exterior. It's starting to look plain jane.

    Bird to Seattle to run the operational side and gets KP to leave Indy as his GM.

    KP isn't doing too shabby of a job in Indiana, eh? People have been kind of quiet here about KP, but Indiana is for real, even w/out Danny Granger.

    Meanwhile in Charlotte, Cho...

    There is a lot of resistance in Seattle to add a third sports' venue in SoDo.

    exactly what has KP done this year, his first year, as GM that was so great?

    He's won, and he was key the year prior to it as Director of Player Personnel.

    He brought in DJ Augustin as a competent back-up for George Hill, and they have been able to overcome losing their All-Star player in part because Gerald Green has been able to give them decent minutes off the bench. They actually have a bench that contributes. It would be nice to have Augustin backing up Lillard over Ronnie Price.

    Haters gonna hate...

    The pacers are winning because of him?

    Seems like you're making minor deals out to be huge deals.

    I didn't say the Pacers are winning because of KP. He did make a few minor deals that made their bench a strength instead of the dumpster fire we have in Portland.

    How do you suppose the Blazers would be record-wise right now w/out LMA for the entire season?

    Who do the Pacers have that would make them a 25-16 team right now?

    I'd take the Blazers' starters over theirs right now.

    Why did you leave out our bench? Would you take all these rookie scrubs Pritchard drafted from Europe but refused to sign for years?

    "Stern has agreed to contract the NBA by two teams, eliminating Sacramento and the LA Clippers from the league. Stern has also issued a mandate that the Los Angeles Lakers get the first 5 picks of the upcoming dispersal draft... more soon."

    Then why the fuck didn't these assholes put together an arena plan and all the rest of this bullshit a year ago, instead of jacking everyone around at the last second after other parties put out all the work necessary to get the Kings to Seattle? It's not like the imminent demise of the Kings was sudden or secret. Fuck them.
