Sam Amick should be following our thread here at KF and he'd know where Ballmer is. LOL

Seattle contingent enters BOG meeting, with Chris Hansen, Gavin Maloof, Bob Hernreich. No Steve Ballmer, which is odd.

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.

Extremely unlikely. We might not know about Sacramento ownership (i.e. Vivek vs. Maloofs), but we will know about the relocation (Seattle vs. Sacramento). One of the few definitive things Stern said about timelines is that he wanted the relocation issued resolved by the Draft Lottery (next week), so the NBA knew whether to hang a Kings or Sonics sign on the board.

I'm curious as to whether or not George was in the presentation. If it's just Gavin representing the Maloof family, that would signal something - I just don't have a real grasp on what it might be. :)

Not gonna happen. Stern, Silver and the other owners are desperate to get this over with once and for all so they can just move on. Way too much time has been spent dancing to the Maloofian tune. That stops now.

Yeah, I know and agree with you....I was sorta joking with that response.

Apparently a Ballmer presentation is quite a show. I wish the Microsoft tycoon was here to add spice to the scene - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvsboPUjrGc …

Gotta be honest. Did a double take when I heard "The Green and Gold Report" on @CBSSports1140. Can't it be "The A's report?"

After his little sit down with Stern and the NBA attorney George might have been told it would be best if he sat this one out.

Things kinda quiet on Twitter right now. Might be a good time to get a beverage of your choice or, if you're at work, grab a quick bite to eat. It could get very interesting once the Seattle and Sacramento presentations are over. Aaron Bruski did mention, however, that the NBA is really trying to crack down on leaks.

Stern is supposed to have a press conference at some point this afternoon, so hopefully we will in fact have a definitive answer.

"@bcondotta: Also with Seattle group was Bob Hernreich. Hansen also bought his shares." Correction, TRYING to buy his shares.

Sports brings people together in ways few other things do. In Kings saga, Twitter has brought people of Sac together to fight for its team

Ch. 13 reporting they expect the meeting to last about three hours.

ACK! I don't want to wait three more hours.

Where Stern's and @KJ_MayorJohnson press conferences will be. Hopefully where we learn the fate of the #nbakings.

As this drags out I'm getting more nervous. I was pretty confident last night but today's the day....
I just hope it goes Sacramento's way.

You're not alone. I think any Kins fan has to be nervous, even if we're pretty sure of the result. Bottom line?

IN KJ WE TRUST!
