re: Hornets and Kings having a great battle at worst attendance in the league

the honest to God truth and the elephant in the room that no one ever wants to address is the fact that the Gulf South is not a good basketball market. even when the Hornets were a solid playoff teams for three seasons the attendance was never anything to brag about. the absolute best attendance year for the Hornets was the 2008-09 season immediately following the season before where they made a decent playoff run (second round) and the average attendance that season was 16,968. prior to that season it was around 14k and then the very next season in 2010 it was around 15k and it hasn't been higher than that ever since.

the only way this team will ever get good fan support is if they win a championship plain and simple and it would only last while and only when the team is winning. that is not a good thing. that tells you the market here is terrible for basketball.

You're not exactly accurate in your analysis, but I'm not going to argue with you. It's a waste of time.

I actually have a question that I'd like you to answer. Does this constant bloviating about attendance have some sort of cathartic effect for you? Do you somehow feel you are making a point on a fan site by beating this particular dead horse? Seriously. I'd like to know your point.
