The NBA is dependent on th public funding model. It makes owners a ton of money, and if one city can buck the trend others will follow. It's a major reason Seattle was moved and still doesn't have a team; no public funding no team. If it can happen to Seattle it can happen to almost anyone(Lakers, Bulls, Knick, Dubs, Heat are immune)
