Just signed with the Knicks, who are also favorite to sign Van Vleet in free agency.

Knicks just declined Portis' contract this year and waived Taj Gibson. Making room for their Toppin pick and opening up salary for free agency. Leon Rose is doing great so far, honestly.
Y’know, if Harris, Bol and Porter all pan out for them, that’s some very nice pieces to add—not even including Nnaji.

México City would probably need a new arena.

Virginia Beach would need a new one. They threatened to build one several times, though, when they were in the running for the relocation of the Sacramento Kings a few years ago.
I'm against public financing of stadia as much as anybody, but most of these already exist.
NBA basically shunned KC already when the Raps were brought up as potentially playing there this year, citing social justice issues.
I feel sorry for Klay but I don't feel sorry for the Warriors. This is what they get for signing KD to their 73 win team then tanking last year, hiding Steph behind a broken hand on a doodoo team.
They had the cap space and the situation to attract a great player. What's so wrong with that?
They won the West five years in a row (an accomplishment on its own) and got three championships out of it.
I bet basically any franchise in the NBA would take that.
And *everybody* tanks if it is in their best interest to do so.
I am not really a fan of any particular pro sports teams. It's just cheering for laundry.
I don't think there are many teams people would ever feel sorry for...I think that's kinda what makes a story like Lebron's with the Cavs (not that it's the case anymore) unique...everyone feels sorry for the Cavs except during the years they had a chance with Lebron and maybe a handful of years decades ago. Even then, you can only feel so sorry for a billion dollar franchise. I think @Sigmapolis is right - all these teams are going to take any advantage they can get.
