New juicy rumor: Jazz headed to Seattle

This would be a gutsy move by the Millers. Their entire LHM organization would take a huge publicity hit. I think their all their businesses would struggle locally due to the fallout. But...having $300+ million in your pocket makes it easy to laugh at the haters.
 
I listened to it, and I thought the opposite. He talked about the Jazz still being competitive, and how he was willing to go into the luxury, which showed his dedication.
 
How are the Jazz going to play in a city without an NBA arena? Are they going to magically build one in the next few months? Even if the Jazz were sold, it would make no sense to move the team from a profitable city/arena before there were a profitable arena ready in Seattle.

Huh? Couldn't they just renovate the Key Arena?

I disagree, from a business point of view I think he kind of stuck doing it. If they totally blew up the team for cap space, they would lose a ton of ticket sales next year. He has to appear to at least try to be competitive.
 
I'm sure the Maloofs will try to get the CBA to agree to allowing a Vegas team. I could see the Jazz going there.

People would get over it like they do everything else.
 
If Seattle was a real option why aren't the Kings being mentioned? Hell they are looking at moving to a 20 year old arena in Anaheim and becoming the 3rd team in SoCal.
