A few Sam Amick Twitter quotes:
Kevin Johnson says "framework of an agreement going forward" to keep team in Sacramento. "I want to jump up and down."
Joe Maloof tells SI.com the family's contribution the $387 million arena is $73 million, but it doesn't end there.
George Maloof via Sacbee:
"close to $75 million upfront, probably another $75 million over the term of the agreement."
Fran Blinebury's quote:
All-Stars in Sac? NBA Commish David Stern: "We're working on it. We'll turn downtown into a festival of All-Star Weekend eventually."
Hell Yeah!!!!

Same here. I'm not jumping up and down until the ink is dry.

This is really big news. Its pretty much the first time since the Maloofs came into town that ownership and the City have been on the same page. KJ is unbelievable, what a miracle worker!

I'm happy with KJ when it comes to the kings and the arena, but he's a terrible mayor outside of that....

I dont think the arena had anything to do with free agents.

Debbie Downer. KJ is a legend. A few years from now this is all people will remember about him.

Now lets make some trades and bring in some talent. Build the team around Cousins, not Evans!
