Check their preseason game attendance records at the forum.You're telling me thast you know more than the NBA? The NBA was wrong to not seek to put a team in Tampa. I love it, you guys are just too funny. Tampa ain't a bball town, deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is LA not a football town?Unique situation that the NFL is working to fix. Nice try though, but not comparable to Tampa's lack of an NBA team. Laughable how far you darksiders will go with your fallacies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
