    Default The Clippers should move to Las Vegas

    T Mobile Arena is a great brand new arena. It's time for the Clippers to get their own place.

    Yup they should. They should get rid of everything that still links them to Sterling. LV is all about show business, no empty seats like Miami.

    You want to put a sports team that is worth hundreds of millions, if not a billion dollars, into a city that creates the lines for sports betting.

    You want to put a group of young, immature, rich men in a city known for gambling, drugs, and women.

    Yea...I don't see anything going wrong here.

    They were just sold for $2 billion.


    LA is large enough to support 2 teams. If the NBA were to move a team to Las Vegas, they wouldn't take one from one of their large markets.

    An NHL expansion team will begin to play in Las Vegas in 2017.

    I'm talking sports franchises, in general. So any team going to Vegas.

    I hope the whole franchise, from the President down to the training staff, keep high morality then. If it doesn't hurt the team, I can see a goalie letting in a goal or two to make the over/under or for the line. If it does hurt the team, I can see a player who doesn't really give a **** allow the forward to pass him on a break.

    Please God yes! We need some pro teams over here. That Hockey team coming here is great but a basketball team would be even better

    Rent free.

    Don't try to pin all their failures on Sterling. He may be a racist Jew, but Chris Paul is still more of a racist and you know it. (Steve Ballmer may be a racist Jew too, we don't know. What difference does it make? How do you throw away a 3-1 lead over Houston?)

    I do think this is a good idea though.

    People have suggested this for years. The Kings were the most recent of the topic. Like someone else said, all the gambling, prostitution going on, it would become a ticking time bomb for players.
