Anyone that thinks they’re moving the team from Dallas to Las Vegas needs to get their head examined.I’m sure it is, what if they don’t succeed in their goal? What if that goal doesn’t succeed for the first few years? How patient will they be? Legalizing pot in Texas has been rumored for years in Texas, so much so that smoke shops have been popping up everywhere in anticipation for years now.
Besides, the NBA basically confirmed Las Vegas will get an expansion franchise with Lebron as part of the ownership group.
This is all about trying to bring gambling to Texas and make more money. Adelsons are big time political donors.
Also, the thing about “if, then” statements is, the “if” is not a definitive statement.
The fact that we’re a top 5 market is why I think we could entice a team like the Thunder here. IF that were to actually happen.
