A couple of Sonics fans are here. One lives here, another happened to be in town anyway pic.twitter.com/2xLDlRkvC9

The Maloofs would have sold the picks by then

I don't think draft picks can be traded now. Only players currently under contract for next year. And it this point it's too late to save any money on salaries since they have been paid or at least should have been paid.

Official count: 12 Kings fans to 2 Sonics fans

 

[VF21]

Even the reporters are getting confused/excited, as evidenced by this latest tweet:

David Bienick ‏@kcrabienick 34s

Joe Maloof has joined brother Joe. Headed for #nba meeting room.

---------------

I'm guessing he means that Joe has joined George, but hey - it's the Maloofs. I'm not gonna assume anything.

From Twitter:

CrownDowntown and other Kings fans in the house!

CD puts down another Seattle attempt at a pithy retort:

Carmichael Dave ‏@CarmichaelDave 1m

“@d_ferrari: @206empire @CarmichaelDave Just have to state the obvious. Unemployment in SAC 11.2% Seattle 5.2%.” NBA teams: Sac 100%

Mayor Kevin Johnson arrives. And guess what Kingsfans folks? That's our very own RYAN walking next to him with the camera. Talk about KF being represented!!!

Haha, time for the Magoofs to **** **** up for H/B by opening their mouths.

Meeting should have begun by now. Still no sign of Hansen or Ballmer.

Chris Daniels ‏@ChrisDaniels5 1m

Meeting should be getting underway shortly. Still no sign of Hansen/Ballmer group… #NBAKings

Sonic boom for the maloofs?

 

[HndsmCelt]

Personally I would have put them all in back with Ray-Bans... but I am a Reservoir Dogs kind of guy.

David Bienick ‏@kcrabienick 42s

#NBA spokesman confirms meeting has begun. Says he has not personally seen Hansen here.

 

[Hallama]

Interesting, no Ballmer or Hansen sightings. Maybe nothing, maybe sumpin'.

Since there's TV cameras and downtime, I think the Sonic and Kings fan contingent should do a remake of the Beat It video knife fight.

Ballmer presents at Microsoft's CEO Summit today so he won't be in Dallas. Hansen unknown.

Any idea on when the conclusion of the meeting will be? There are things to be done...but I can't stop refreshing Twitter and Kingsfans. This feels bigger to me than any Holiday. It's like having a present under the tree that reallly looks like its the "toy Ive always wanted" but its wrapped and you have to wait for everyone to open it.

I find daylight Savings to be the ultimate in collective delusion. I reject it like Starbucks lingo. At one time I just flatly refused to change my clocks but that did get to be confusing.

I agree on the stupidity of changing the clocks, however that is for another thread in another forum.

I'm trying to keep on top of it for all our folks who don't have Twitter. (Just like I used to do all the Play-by-plays. )

 

[thingfish]

VF21, We thank you for that! Now back to my activity for today...refresh, refresh, refresh..

Bryan May ‏@BMayNews10 1m

Chris Hansen just walked into meetings, with Gavin Maloof so safe to say Sea going 1st

 

[KingsFanatic]

Just as an example, I hope we don't hear some crap like, "due to the complexity of the situation, the NBA has scheduled another meeting next month to determine the fate of the Sacramento Kings". I think I'll scream if that happens.

 

[VF21]

Having Seattle go first is great. This way, KJ and Vivek are the last folks the board hears before they vote. Don't think there are going to be any surprises...
