So in other words, if Tulsa sold out all of its NBA games as a [LEFT]temporary[/LEFT] substitute host arena, people who think they're fine experts would still look down upon Tulsa as far too tiny to support a NBA team.

You're talking in the neighborhood of 150,000 by having Washington, Nowata, Muskogee and Delaware Counties added on.

Sacramento is not part of the Bay and its 90 miles away. So the Bay has only one team.

Tulsa would most likely not be a viable option at this point to host a temporary team. Definitely not an NBA team, maybe the NHL. Let the BOK get settled in first.

Are the Eagles opening for the BOK or Garth Brooks? I need to look over their schedule.

The Bay Area ends in Fairfield and Fairfield is only 35-40 Miles From
West Sacramento and Davis Is In The Sacramento Metropolitan Area So
Fairfield is only 25 Miles away from Davis.....So That's Makes The Two Metro Area's Only 25 Miles Apart.....That's My Logic That One Day They Will Unite Into This SUPER..Sacramento-Stockton-Modesto-Bay Area......

I hope Sac metro doesn't get united with the Bay Area because I feel Sac will lose its identity. Right now Sac is the capital of CA. A city that is know for having a small town feel but its still a city. Sac has its own media market. If Sac joins the Bay then it will be considered a bedroom community of SF or the Bay Area's fourth airport.

I find it hard to believe that a city of close to 500,000 as Sacramento can be possibly known to have a small town feel. It must have lost it long ago.

Guess you've never heard of Fort Worth, TX? We have over 700,000 and a large number of people still think of it as a Dallas suburb or smaller city.

It is utterly ridiculous that David Stern allowed a team with a 40 year history, located in a major U.S. city, to move to Oklahoma. One of the many, MANY reasons I haven't watched or supported the NBA for over 10 years now.

Oklahoma City is a major city. The team will have support from OKC, Tulsa, the state of Oklahoma and even some Texans......

OKC is an outpost in comparison to Seattle. Not only that, the NBA lost one of it's 2 Pacific Northwest franchises, and now has 5 teams (OKC, Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, New Orleans) all within a couple hundred miles of eachother raping eachothers fanbases. You call that good business? Keep dreaming. That league has been spiraling downward ever since Jordan retired, and with assanine moves like this, that spiral seems to know no end.
