    Damn, that city deserves better. As for those commentators, Jerry Reynolds has always been one of my favorite color guys.

    Fuck the Maloofs.

    The entire west coast is now represented only by L.A., Bay Area, Portland.

    What exactly is Stern's plan?

    What a shame. Tough for Kings fans. And another LA area team ... really?

    Obviously pretty emotional stuff, I really feel for their fans.

    I don't think that teams should ever be relocated, I much prefer the promotion/relegation system a la the EPL.

    I have a lot of friends that are losing a majority of their work because of this. They will have to pack up their families and leave town! Very sad.

    The Kings have long been my second favorite team. I loved the Chris Webber teams when I was younger. I mean Doug Christie was my favorite non-Blazer. Sucks for those fans.

    Is it a sure thing? Are the Kings definitely moving?

    My heart goes out to the Kings fans. That's just a horrible situation. Can't imagine how I would feel if the Blazers moved to Las Vegas or some other city. I think something inside me would die forever.

    Yeah, I loved them because they hate the L*kers too and they had Adelman and Petrie. I know the arena is a shithole and the city or the state doesn't have any money to build a new one, but I hate fans getting fucked like this. This is almost as bad as Seattle.

    This. All I could see is Mike and Mike or even the Schonz signing off knowing the team was going to be elsewhere next year.

    My only hope for next year is that we get a three game roadtrip at LAL, LAC and ANA.

    It could make So Cal a destination for a trifecta of games for the serious Blazers fan!!!

    Ha! Are you kidding? It will be the Stern rules. Portland will have back-to-backs of LAC-Denver, Utah-LAL, Chicago-ANA. Meanwhile the Flakers will effectively have two-week home stands.

    They're going to be the Anaheim Royals - already registered.

    I cannot imagine a Portland without the TrailBlazers.
