Could DeMarcus Cousins be coming back home? |
Rumors are flying around the NBA that Sacramento may be the team ready to make a move out of California. This would bring Kentucky's favorite basketball big man, DeMarcus Cousins back to the Commonwealth. Also, Chris Paul and the New Orleans Hornets are in the mix of discuss. Last week, the team was taken over by the NBA because of poor financial performance. Again, this is all rumors at this point. If Bruce is right however, the NBA may be coming to Kentucky sooner than later.
John Calipari has some interesting comments about the possibility of the NBA moving in next door. Calipari stated " "This state is driven by the city of Louisville," Calipari said. "It is. Anything that's good for the city of Louisville is good for our state. I believe (the NBA) is good for the city of Louisville, which makes our state even better. That's just my opinion. That's one of four million."
I believe the only question or concern is will the love for college basketball translate to the love for NBA basketball in the Bluegrass. It will take the right team, owner, and coach but I believe KY is fertile ground for a NBA team.
ReplyDeleteI agree to the point that it is yet to be determined if the fan base will follow a NBA team as it does college. I would like to find out though!
