Kansas City getting a NBA team. - cruiser MU - 5/19 08:40:52
     Things to consider: - alwaysright MU - 5/20 09:22:28
     They should get a NHL or NBA team. Can't support both - Erwin Fletcher STL - 5/19 20:49:52
     They had a team - why would the be more likely to support - alstl MU - 5/19 14:03:40
          Different decade. Different arena and area for fans - tman KC - 5/19 19:45:12
               I think a pro team in Anchorage would work because those - alstl MU - 5/19 20:52:25
     beakers aren't gonna like that (nm) - zounami MU - 5/19 12:52:32
     Corky is not gonna like this one bit... - Carlos Rossi KC - 5/19 12:38:49
     Hopefully it screws up support for kansas.(nm) - TigerMatt STL - 5/19 12:22:50
     How does that work? Do they just sign a bunch of free - Ozark Apple MU - 5/19 12:02:45
          expansion teams typically have a pick of unprotected players - Macgrantt MU - 5/19 13:06:08
               NBA and NHL expansions are far different - Cosmo MU - 5/19 13:11:46
                    would be long odds but the Knights were 500 to 1 - Macgrantt MU - 5/19 13:30:53
                         More saying that the sports are different in how teams - Cosmo MU - 5/19 14:04:26
          Expansion draft (nm) - Cosmo MU - 5/19 13:04:33
     here comes all the experts saying KC is too small, etc - Beakerbasher KC - 5/19 11:46:45
          Not too small but you have to wonder if there is a local - KC rules MU - 5/19 13:14:09
          I can’t stand NBA but would love it for KC - Beakerbasher KC - 5/19 11:47:46
               I agree. I do not like the NBA at all. I follow it just - alwaysright MU - 5/20 09:27:04
     I’m sure that just ruined kc hating stldfw’s day - Beakerbasher KC - 5/19 11:41:39
     Why would they come to KC when they already lost a NBA - MIZZOUowns SEC - 5/19 11:39:33
          Downtown KC has been completely revitalized and will only - TigerAviator16 MU - 5/19 12:15:17
          That was decades ago - Cosmo MU - 5/19 12:11:33

          KC is bigger than several current NBA markets - MizzouAstro MU - 5/19 12:33:09
               My point is that you have three pro teams in a mid sized - MakeShift MU - 5/19 14:51:25
                    KC has the money to support an NBA team - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/19 15:11:58
                         Memphis is another example - MakeShift MU - 5/19 15:14:01
                              the NBA already tried Seattle as well - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/19 15:20:31
                                   Vancouver and Seattle aren't comparable - zodiac6 JC - 5/19 16:15:14
               And they don't have competition from football and baseball - KC rules MU - 5/19 13:16:33
