They have never said they won't. They're just trying to see if we're stupid enough to pay for it first.

VOTE NO MARCH 4th!
This shows your ignorance. Bennett hasn't even mentioned the Ford Center, and the Sonics' owners aren't even in on this. The NBA and Stern have suggested that our $89 million arena wouldn't compete well with $400 million arenas in the league. Mick Cornett listened, and suggested that we try to improve the Ford Center. Still, even with the improvements, it won't be the best arena in the league, but at least these improvements will make it somewhat competitive, and it will show the NBA team owners that we will support a team.

Voting NO on March 4th, is a vote against your city. It will stop all of the momentum we've gained from MAPS, and we'll be the laughingstock for years to come. Just think....a city that could've become major league, but chose not to, and fell into disrepair as a result.
