With all the talk about the Sacramento Kings moving from Sacramento to another city, do you think they will move? And if yes, where?
They have been talking that the Kings might move to Anaheim, but with two teams already in the area, I do not see that one happening.

Weren't they just about to start building a new arena for the Kings? I hate it when a franchise moves, the poor fans. It really tugs on my heart as there have been moving rumors with the Isles for years now. Should the Kings move, I would be pretty shocked if it's to SoCal. As you said, there are already two teams in the area. San Diego isn't really viable to hold a sports franchise as the Chargers are witnessing now. I have no idea where they would go in-state. I bet if they move, it's out of California.

Sacramento and the taxpayers were supposed to pay for the new arena, but Sacramento couldn't get the votes to use taxpayer dollars.
IMO, if the NBA and the Kings really want a new arena in Sacramento, then the NBA and the Maloofs should pay for it.

If the Maloofs don't pay for it and public money/outside investors is not doable then I have very bad news for Kings fans on what the commute will be like to home games in the next five years or so.
