Because California is 4 times as relevant as Seattle.

You could get rid of Clipper, Kings and Warriors history from the NBA and nothing would change

>>67379665
They would just get replaced by Coffee Beans. No one actually gives a shit about Starbucks anymore.

Seattle city council said no to land for a new arena. No new team for an entire generation.

Clippers share an arena with the Lakers
Kings are only 88 miles away from Warriors

One of these two should leave California

other than winning a championship, and getting robbed of another in 02?
>>
>>67379503
Why? Because that's how it is. No, the L.A. Clippers aren't moving to Seattle either. Seattle isn't getting an NBA team at least until after the current CBA expires next year and not until they solve their arena problem.
>>
>>67379735
Here's why Seattle isn't getting another NBA team soon:

Its funny: people actually desire to live in Seattle

People only end up in shitholes like Sacramento, OKC, and Milwaukee

You think FA's will avoid big markets like NYC, LA, Chicago and Seattle?

LA is more than twice the size of Seattle

2bh LA probably deserves 3 teams

NYC/Miami/LA are destinations, Seattle is an outpost

Better than shitholes like Sacramento or Milwaukee
>>
>>67381637
Sacramento and OKC and Cleveland and Milwaukee don't carry delusions of grandeur like Seattle, they actually have a sense of humor ad humility about where they live.

Seattle thinks it's hot shit when it's really lukewarm piss.
>>
>>67381704
Seattle is the center of a whole region of a country.

The rest of those cities aren't even the primary cities within a 200 mile radius

Sacramento is near San Francisco
Milwaukee is near Chicago
Cleveland is near Detroit
OKC is near Dallas

No need for 4 Cali teams

You know that Vancouver and Portland aren't too far away

Yes Denver is on a major East-West route centrally located one time zone away from the central.. I said most isolated in continental US yes

Seattle bigger than Portland.. Vancouver and not in the United States even more isolated

>>
>>67387773
Except city council can be bought easily with money

What can't be bought is the clear void the NBA has by not having a team here.

There's no team within the state to cheer for, unlike the Clippers and Kings

They wouldn't be called the Seattle Clippers retard OP. why do people keep thinking this
>>
no need to relocate

just give Seattle and somebody else a team, there is plenty of talent to go around in the NBA right now. There are too many bright talents playing second fiddle when they would be excellent franchise leaders.
>>

Wow, I could not disagree more

/b/ tards are coming to sprts to troll

And somehow they can't afford a new basketball gym?

No matter what excuse you have, this stands as the sole reason seattle will never have a team in the foreseeable future.

I hesitate to call Seattle a "big" city, but its a couple hours drive from Vancouver BC and Portland OR so its not really that isolated.

You cant pretend Seattle is much larger than El Paso or Denver, and those seem much more isolated to me.

Not that it really matters since there are these things called airplanes that handle mountains with relative ease.

or MLS or MLB

Sac republic and the rivercats have good fanbases

I may hate the yuppy attitude the people up here in Seattle have but they're smart and they are on the come-up socially. Seattle is becoming a lot more relevant.

I'm a former Sonics fan too OP but the city itself is to blame for the team still being gone. They literally couldn't manage to not fuck up taking an almost free arena from Chris Hansen.

give me one reason why Seattle deserves a team more than San Diego

why wouldn't we? it literally employs half of Californians

>Why does LA need two teams?
Because it's big enough to support two NBA teams, just like it's big enough to support two NFL teams.
>>
>>67399246

because seattle is cooler
