But it seems that it is not possible as Commissioner Adam Silver has met with the fans who all have the level of ambivalence which is said to be similar to their predecessor.
During the Friday night, preseason exhibition match which has between the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings in Seattle has offered fans with some much-needed hope.
The match has witness a sellout crowd of about 17,074 which was piled into the 56-year-old building on the wet as well as dreary fall evening to watch the first NBA game after ten years. It has been seen that some of them come with blue and gold colours of the home warriors as it is their favorite among the Seattle basketball fans. They say thanks to Bay Arena as it transplants to call as the city home.
The Golden State Star Kevin Durant we said to be the most noteworthy former Sonic who is still playing in this league. Apart from this many, more people have arrived by wearing the green as well as gold which is said to be the silent demonstration about the desire to bring the basketball back to the Seattle.
This game was organized by the president of Warriors Rick Welts and was headlined by Durant. He has maintained his relationship with the city after playing in the farewell season.
