There are people here who hate everything Southern California but they tend to be bitter (and alcoholic) Bostonians and cheer for their old teams. The Kings are going to flop terribly.

They got Tyreke the Freak but a team needs to win to get people to pay attention. I’m pretty sure Clippers ratings have fallen off after they stopped winning games. Griffin is amazing but no one in SoCal cheers on a loser.

I’ll tune in to a game or five during the seaon, just to see what Tyreke is about or DeMarcus, just like I do for the Clippers, but that’s because I’m an NBA fan. Most people will not care and it will be a ratings catastrophe. I just do not get this move one bit.

i.e.; Disney wants them.

Send it to Seattle or any other market that isn’t saturated with teams.

Seriously though, with the Lakers having such a strong fan base and the Clips having a steady fan base, will there be enough to go around for the Anaheim Kings?
