VF21 said:There's nothing to keep him coming here, loopy. His heart is in Detroit; his team is in Philadelphia. He grew to love Sacramento because of the Kings, the fans, etc. but there's no reason to think he'd want to live here.
He said more than once he hoped he had earned the right to retire as a King. That was taken away - and I can fully understand him not wanting to retain a lot of ties here. He can afford to buy and renovate another home, much closer to his family and friends - and I'm sure he will.
I know VF, but he put a lot of time and effort into that house and if it was me I couldn't sell it, regardless of how much money I had. You could tell he put his heart into that house and it's just sad that's all. I guess it's the last chapter of the book. As long as he still had his house, there was always that hope, for me anyway that he'd be back ( I know the house has nothing to do it) but now all ties are gone. It's got to be hard for him to let go.
