It's time to make another statement, Kings fans.
You did it last year when you wanted the team to stay.
Now it's time to do it again. Except this time it's about being jobbed. It's about being taken for a ride. It's about a trio of clueless brothers named Maloof.
Friday's despicable display by the Maloofs was inexcusable and perhaps one of the most embarrassing presentations in the history of sports ownership.
Parading a dull economist in front of the press to basically tear the city's arena plan to shreds was a pure affront to any Kings' fan who was brave enough to watch.
George Maloof acted like a child who had no idea why things hadn't gone his way in the sandbox. He was gonna pout and whine and claim that little Kevie hit him in the face with a shovel.
These guys are morally and financially broke.
They have no money because they have no business acumen. In fact, they have no businesses. They have no way to make money any more. Owning an NBA team is not a profitable business. It's a hobby for rich men. The Maloofs don't qualify.
So what can the fans do?
Easy.
Empty the arena. Don't set foot in the place for the final four games.
Make it a ghost town.
The sports world doesn't care one iota about Sacramento, but it's time to hold up the owners to the ridicule they deserve.
Stay home.
Empty the arena.
Let the team play in silence.
When the highlights appear on ESPN, the sound of shame will be deafening to the Maloofs.
