Last night, the NBA’s two lead officials sat down for a conversation with journalist Charlie Rose on his nightly PBS talk show<\/a>. \u00a0Among the topics discussed in the roughly 26-minute dialogue – the future of the Sacramento Kings. Transcribed below are comments from Stern and Silver on the relocation committee’s decision to unanimously recommend against moving the Kings to Seattle.<\/p>\n

Stern’s overview of the Sacramento\/Seattle situation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, there was a deal for a very good group from Seattle to buy the team, you know, perfect prototype for an NBA owner. \u00a0But the mayor of Sacramento put together a group, Kevin Johnson…and he put together a group and he put together an arena package. \u00a0And right now, we had a committee that voted, our relocation committee, subject to them putting together a report and then having the board vote on it that the team should not be moved. \u00a0The recommendation is that they should stay in Sacramento.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Silver was asked if running the NBA is different from managing any other corporation. \u00a0His response:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think it is. \u00a0I think it\u2019s a public trust of sorts. \u00a0And that\u2019s how communities see their teams and we\u2019re experiencing that in Sacramento right now. \u00a0I think some people are surprised at the preliminary decision the relocation committee has made because they say well but look at Seattle – there\u2019s more corporate headquarters, there\u2019s more TV households, there\u2019s the potential to generate more revenue there – shouldn\u2019t you move a franchise to the market where there\u2019s more revenue? \u00a0And our response is not necessarily. \u00a0That if you look at total value over time, and brand building, and community support, that continuity is important. \u00a0I mean, look (at) Seattle now – part of why the citizens there are so upset, and we understand that, is they lost their team to Oklahoma City.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
