They might though, we've had concerts down there without any real incidents. Usually shyt happens in Wesport with the youngins, but they've put a stop to that as well. The fact that NBA has held exhibition games at the Sprint Center for the past few years should let them know that it's possible.
I remember when they treated Jazzy Jeff like shyt but hope they treat dudes different now. They still got that BS dress code? Miss KC

They've eased up on the dress code because it was blatantly racist. Plus they had a bunch of white people walking around dressed like they didn't give a hot damn, so they've relaxed some the dress code.

What's wrong with San Jose ?

You're putting a team in the middle of the market of the NBA champs. It's called EXPANSION for a reason breh, to expand the league, fan base, revenue, markets, etc. You don't accomplish 10% of that in San Jose/Chicago/any current market that you do in a new city.

This is a huge market to exploit, right in the backyard of Silicon Valley

when you expand you have to do 2 to even out the conferences, so I'll say:

East: Kansas City. With all this talk of teams threatening to move because they want a new arena, KC is ripe because they have a new arena that nobody is using.

West: Seattle. For obvious reasons.

They can just let Seattle get a team and move a team to the east (Memphis, New Orleans) and go with 31 teams.
