People whose job it is to deal with Arenas, etc say the SKC is the worst.
Who cares? Is it costing the franchise money? Free Agents? Fan experience? I say no to all.

Most likely, yes. There are revenue streams in modern arenas they are not able to take advantage of.

Free Agents?


Several players, including Lebron, have commented on what a dump it is.

Fan experience?


Smallest lower bowl in the NBA, lack of amenities, etc


The back of house stuff is one of the biggest problems that everyone else comments on, and it cannot be corrected.


In addition, Silver has basically said we aren't getting another AllStar Game with this Arena.

The Pelicans don't own the building.

I's owned by the state and is a multi use facility.

It's not just about what is best for the Pels with the SKC. It's about what makes the city the most money.
