Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game

This is an interesting read by Nick Friedell of Yahoo Sports blog The Shutdown Corner.

Friedell talks about the dip in NBA attendance around the league, particularly in places like Philadelphia, Orlando and Memphis.

The Grizzlies currently have the lowest attendance in the league at 11,924 a night in a place that seats 19,000. Friedell hints that a few NBA franchise could be in danger with the current financial crisis going on right now.

With the league struggling in some markets, it makes you wonder how much folks here are committed to bringing an NBA team back, particularly state lawmakers who would have to support putting forth money to rebuild KeyArena.
