How do you think the Kings leaving would affect your usage of Realgm?

My appetite will severely be weakened, that's for sure. I still have the 49ers and Giants, but it just won't be the same. I'll probably gradually disappear, or go down like Smills :wink:

Teams move. It's the nature of professional sports. If they remain Kings/Royals, I will still support the team, but if they totally abandon their identity like the Sonics transition to Thunder, then I would have a hard time rooting for the Anaheim Quakes.

That makes absolutely no sense. You'll still support the team if they keep the Kings/Royals name, but if they change it to something else, you won't? Right...

I am also a fan of the Hornets because of my NC connections. I didn't abandon the team when they moved the New Orleans, nor would I abandon the team if they move again, as long as they maintain their identity as the hornets.

If the only reason you support the Kings or like the NBA at all is because they are from Sacramento, then I can understand that. But I'm a fan of basketball, the NBA, and the kings. I won't stop supporting the team just because they relocate, as long as they maintain their identity. This team has already moved several times before, so that's not a huge issue to a long time fan of basketball.

No - i'm a Kings fan(or any other name for that matter even if they completly change it), not a Sacramento fan.(although i'd love the team to stay in Sacramento obviously)

I'll stay a fan of the team through leaguepass and still be here ;)

i supported the kings because they were a sacto team.. if they dump sacto and move then I would never support them.. as much of a die-hard fan of kings I am, them leaving will surely make me die-hard hater of that team..

The MLB & NFL boards are pretty dead, maybe they'll speed up with all the displaced Kings fans.

Not sure.

I probably either become a fan of another team i.e. Warriors or still follow the Kings or get into soccer more or drop everything as a whole and focus on school. :sad:

I'm a die hard - 'SACRAMENTO' Kings fan. I don't know what I'll do if the team relocates, It's sickening to even think about it.

There's really no point. I only watch the NBA because of Sacramento. If the kings leave I can focus more on the Euroleague, it's going to surpass the NBA in the next 20-30 years anyways.

Boy, this will be hard. 95% of my room is Kings stuff. I suppose it all would come down and I'd have to decide between becoming a Anaheim _ fan, or a Warriors/Blazers fan.

But, no. I don't think I'd be done with RealGM.

BC Zalgiris and Lietouvos Rytas, I'm lithuanian so I have to stick with the local giants. I am also a fan of both Barca (because of Rubio and Ingles) and Maccabi tel Aviv(because Omri is from that team).
