Just a negotiating tactic.

But yeah, this guy sucks.

Sarver has ruined the franchise and now threatens to move them Phoenix doesn't fork up $150 million for him. Let them move. They are not worth watching.

Not going to happen.

The NBA's Board of Governors would NEVER vote to allow the Suns to leave.

While I think it’s unlikey, I wouldn’t say it’s impossible. I mean, Seattle lost their team, something I never thought would really happen. I know circumstances may be a little different but anything can happen, and that’s why I have a bit of a pit in my stomach right now.

**** this guy.

It's exactly what I thought. Sarver will use this issue to his full advantage.

To put it politely, it makes me want to vomit.

Yeah, I don't see how we can rule it out. The Sonics moved in spite of having won a title in Seattle and with the reigning Rookie of the Year on their roster. If it can happen to them, it can happen to the Suns.

I've reached the point where I want the city council to vote down the restoration and Sarver to move the team. They are NEVER going to get better under his ownership, so they might as well move the team and probably get an expansion team with an owner who actually is smart enough to spend money on basketball people who know what they're doing.

I'm not there. Look how long Seattle has been waiting for another NBA team. All they have to treasure is their name, Seattle SuperSonics.

Yeah I’m with you. I can’t even imagine not having the Suns here. Seattle still doesn’t have their team back and it’s been what 10-11 years now? Ugh.

Difference here is that even though our arena is old, it's nothing compared to what condition Key Arena was in--and the public was NOT going to pay for renovations to that building at the time.

I really don't consider us even having a team right now. All this team does is make us miserable.

I will not change teams. If the Suns move I will probably give up NBA basketball. All these years of rooting for the Suns will turn to dust. Even the rumor of the Suns leaving makes it an even more dismal situation.

I won't change teams either, but then again, Sarver has beat the love of basketball almost completely out of me at this point.
