KC mayor Quinton Lucas, US Senators Roy Blunt, Pat Roberts and Jerry Moran, and US Rep Emanuel Cleaver co-signed a letter to the NBA commissioner's office and Raptors ownership making the case for Kansas City to be the temporary home, if needed.
Never thought I’d type this but Kansas City is legit pursuing an NBA team. Here’s the latest, including three irrefutable takeaways: https://t.co/ZrkvFqUE6F

Trudeau government already set the precedent by blocking the Jays in July. Considering it’s gotten much worse since then in Ontario, I’d imagine they will make exactly the same decision again (if they don’t want to come off as complete hypocrites that is, not that that’s ever stopped politicians before).

I went to so many Lakers games during the Kobe-Shaq era and I've never had that kind of experience watching any other sport.
Those dudes are so freaking huge yet so quick, fast and graceful that it's mind bottling. [Reply]

I sat right behind the Heat bench a few years ago that was pretty cool. I've seen Lebron and Wade play here countless times including when they played OKC with Durant and Westbrooke. It was cool but I didnt fully enjoy it because I saw Nebraska whip Kstates ass a few nights before. That's when Nebraska was ranked top 10 and Martinez looked like a Heisman candidate. It was also when the Chiefs won the division with Haley/Cassel so football was all I really focused on.
Also saw Golden St play here the year they won their first title.
Probably not best to gauge an NBA game on pre season though. I bet a playoff game would be amazing. I'm definitely for a team moving to KC I would follow the NBA again. [Reply]
