Thanks.

It frustrates me when everyone (ESPN, SI, etc) complains about the New Orleans market and discusses moving the Saints. When the Hornets moved to town, a lot of critics complained that New Orleans had a shot at the NBA and didn't deserve a team. However, the Jazz were one of the top drawing teams in the NBA during the 70's, and the team moved because the owner decided he would rather live in Utah. Today the move would never be approved because teams must show that the market can't support the team (either with crowds or stadium). Charlotte is getting a new team despite having horrible crowds the last few seasons.
