LOL, Jabari didn't make it to camp, but he made it onto the billboard.

nice looking arena, but it also looks kind of small.

 

[PejaFanatic]

I didn't even notice it was Jabari Smith. Someone needs to tell whoever is in charge that Jabari is no longer a King.. LOL ^_^

[LMM]

thanks for the pics!

yeah, the arena kinda looks small

how many people could fit in it?

 

[mcsluggo]

it looks like it is primarily an Opera House or Concert Hall, not a sports arena.

Well, I was wrong about it looking kind of small. It's actually kind of huge.

World’s longest cantilevered steel truss roof structure with fabric canopy and 300 meter diameter span. Construction supervision. 80,000 seats.

 

[VF21]

80,000 seats?

That's the equivalent of the Stanford football stadium that holds 75,000, isn't it??

80,000 seats?

Holy moly!

 

[LPKingsFan]

Haha Jabari!

And yes, if that's as many seats as our stadium, that place is going to be nuts. Then again, they don't have our marching band...

Okay, I am having an old lady brain freeze. Is the game Tues morning or Wed morning? It is on at 6:30 a.m. here, so I'll get to watch about the 1st half before work. It is on ESPN or ESPN2 right?
