08:10 AM ET 02.10 | Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson's quest continues. [Johnson] said Thursday he's optimistic the city is on course to have an arena financing plan together before a March deadline -- or will be close enough to prove to the NBA the city should keep its basketball team. "I feel like the city can do its part, and then the negotiations will be between the (Kings team owners) Maloofs, the NBA and (arena operator) AEG." Johnson said he was not concerned by the closeness of the most recent City Council vote on the issue Tuesday. A bare 5-4 council majority stopped an effort by several council members to put part of the still-evolving financing plan on the June ballot for voter approval.

With Seattle back in the Arena business and Anaheim refurbishing the Pond, i'd hurry the hell up if I were you bud.

The state is bankrupt, the fans don't want to pay for a new arena, the players don't want to be there, the owners don't want to be there.......
For the love of god, just let them leave in peace

They could become the Seattle Kings. Seattle is in King County. It would be perfect. Or did Seattle retain the name, colors and history of the Sonics, a la the Cleveland Browns?

What's wrong with Las Vegas? Yeah, I heard there's gambling there--but it would be a bigtime glamour venue for the League.

I believe Seattle did retain the rights to the Supersonics name.
