The race for control of the Sacramento Kings appears to be entering its final lap.  The NBA’s relocation and finance committee is expected to formulate its recommendation this Monday, followed by a vote from the full Board of Governors’ in two weeks.  San Francisco talk show host Tim Montemayor has shared some intriguing details on the situation over Twitter in the last few weeks.  He joins this week’s Cowbell Kingdom Podcast to discuss the saga.
