I really hope this happens, because I’m getting kind of tired of rooting for the Phoenix Suns. The first time they’ve ever had the #1 pick and I’m POSITIVE they’ll find a way to screw it up.

Same here. Became a Suns fan as a youngster because Barkley was my favorite player. Other than then and the Nash years they've been a steaming pile of shit. I'm ready to switch my allegiance to a KC team.

Nice to hear someone shares in my misery. Lol I was like eight years old when the Kings left KC, and my dad was born in Phoenix, so we just went with the Suns. There’s been some really fun years, but good lord they’ve been horrid as of late!

Seems logical to me, though I think barring some magic economic boom that KC is saturated on an avenues for sports spending.
Load the bench up with KU/KSU/WSU/MU G-League / Euro caliber dudes and hope the lottery gods are favorable.

Nah, KC and Seattle are the threats that the NBA uses to extract taxpayer money for new stadiums for its existing teams.
Just like LA was for the NFL. I am betting St. Louis and Oakland now move into that position. |

Mahomes will play point guard when he's not busy winning Lombardi's

I think that died with OKC. The NBA should be looking at international expansion

Maybe if someone relocates
Or if there is relocation plus the addition of one more team OKC is hardly a problem. A Kansas City team could draw from a larger fanbase than OKC (Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska) |

Not to be ugly - but I should hope so, Oklahoma City has a team!

It seems like the NBA has the least parity in championships among the major sports, so I did some digging. Looks like it is true.
--- Number of teams that have won championships since 1990: MLB: (16) CIN, MIN, TOR, ATL, NYY, MIA, ARI, ANA, BOS, CHW, STL, PHI, SFG, KC, CHC, HOU NFL: (14) NYG, WAS, DAL, SF, GB, DEN, STL, BAL, NE, TB, PIT, IND, SEA, PHI NHL: (13*) PIT, MON, NYR, NJD, COL, DET, DAL, TB, CAR, ANA, CHI, BOS, LAK NBA: (10**) CHI, HOU, SAS, LAL, DET, MIA, BOS, DAL, GSW, CLE In progress: *3 of the 4 remaining teams have never won a Stanley Cup. **All four remaining teams have won the Finals since 1990. - Number of cities with a championship since 1990 that are not a top-10 media market: MLB: (7) CIN, MIN, TOR, MIA, ARI, STL, KC NFL: (8) GB, DEN, STL, BAL, TB, PIT, IND, SEA NHL: (6*) PIT, MON, COL, DET, TB, CAR NBA: (4**) SAS, DET, MIA, CLE In Progress: *1 of the 4 remaining teams is in a top-10 media market **3 of the 4 remaining teams are in a top-10 media market |
