    Dude, how did you leave the best player in the NBA, Amare Stoudemire, off that list?

    You're about to learn you some NBA this year.

    I believe seeing NBA players at Valley of the Dolls should be good entertainment as well.

    I believe that Mavericks fans will comprise 70% of the crowd at the Ford Center on New Year's Eve.

    Yeah, the prices are great and I imagine we'll do okay for most of the crappy games. I imagine the people in charge will do promotional things for some of those crappier games just to put butts in the seats.

    This is strictly a one season and sayonara thing. OKC could never support a team for the long term, mainly because the NBA sucks.

    I disagree... OKC will be able to provide a larger crowd than New Orleans has, or could in the future... they will make money.

    Sure for one partial season, then the novelty wears off and the customers realize how pathetic and boring the NBA's product actually is, and go away.

    have you thought that some people like basketball? When I lived in OK, I thought that h.s. basketball was bigger than h.s. football, but I may have been wrong (personally, I hate basketball also)

    I like basketball, but I, and many others, don't like the NBA, that's my point.
