Stuck in gridlock leaving W's game. So bad that I watched a mouse running next to, until I couldn't keep up.

Cordial invitation to join Mayor Johnson tomorrow at 10am at city hall just came in the email.

I'm not saying what Ric Bucher did was right or wrong, I just mean consider the context & the source. That's all I know.

Preview of tomorrow's #CKpodcast: @James Ham and I talk about basketball.

Wish I had known we were airing that, but it was apart of their "High Road/Low Road" bit they do on their show. #NBAKings

After landing back in Sac tonight I couldn't help but smile as we passed the future arena site on our drive back to News10. We did it!

Vivek Ranadive said they are ready to go and that the #nbakings really belong to the fans in Sacramento. #nbakings

Huge shout out to my guy @logan_murdock for his help tonight in helping News10, as I was a one man band down here. Much Love! #NBAKings

Vivek Ranadive told me: "It's the start of a new era" for Sacramento. #NBAKings More coming up on News10 at 11p #NBA

David Stern to News10: "I think there's likely to be a closing the sooner the better." #NBAKings #NBA

To recap: NBA Commissioner David Stern told me "I think the agreement was signed today, I'm just not positive....#NBAKings #NBA

“@RealMurphdog916: WE ARE THE BEST FANS IN THE WORLD” damn right!!

Spoke to Vivek Ranadive again following the game. Called tonight bittersweet. Much more coming up on News10 at 11pm Stern & Vivek on camera

Feels great to be back in Kansas. Missed this place.

We have interviews with @Kevin Johnson & NBA Commissioner David Stern coming up tonight on News10

Damn this made the second time my car been broken into. Did they really have to steal my Erevo RC!

Goodnight world.

At a bar and we're playing "love song." You guys did it!

Stem said he thinks deal was signed today #nbakings

Just spoke to NBA Commissioner David Stern. Said appears a deal in place. #nbakings more to come

BTW, we have now removed the term "relocation" as a category at @Cowbell_Kingdom. Strictly referred to as the "arena" category now.

MAY 15, 2013. It's a new day!

I don't mean this as a dig at Warrior fans, but it's somewhat fitting that GSW's season ends tonight w/ Vivek's #SacKings era beginning.

San Antonio #Spurs holding on to a 82-77 lead over the #warriors with 2:20 to play. 22 from Stephen Curry.

Every fan in the building is standing. Sea of yellow. Great crowd tonight.

Lets be honest..who cares about @Ric Bucher now? Long live the SACRAMENTO Kings!

Harrison Barnes is out for remainder of game with headache. Obviously from the fall #Warriors #Spurs

The Warriors defy logic. Their offense is unsustainable. They turn the ball over too much. They don't play great defense. But here they are.

Steph Curry brings #Warriors to within 2. Golden State ball off #Spur turnover. GSW ball after timeout. 77-75 San Antonio. Oracle goes crazy

“@Aykis16: I have to screencap the frontpage of STR for posterity. Print it out, hang it on my wall.” Thanks for your work!!

Here come the #Warriors. Down 4 6:53 to go. David Lee providing a spark with 9 pts and 5 boards

Thank you #Vivek for the scoop. #NBAKings

Fine. I'll tweet it. IT IS ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL OVER! I love Sacramento!!!

“@gwiss: Love found a way” confirmed by millions of sources. #hereweEFFINGstayed

66-59 headed to the 4th. #Warriors season on the brink. #Spurs not able to put them away yet. Another thrilling game in the series.

As they have been in this whole process, KJ & his camp today exuded plenty confidence that a deal was coming sooner rather than later.

SACRAMENTO! Lets partaaaaaaaaaaaay

Lots of indications earlier today that deal was imminent. We were even bracing ourselves for a presser addressing the deal earlier today.

Sacbee reporting that deal between Maloof family and Vivek Ranadive is for $535M.

Hearing the deal is done. The Vivek Ranadive group has purchased the Sacramento Kings from the Maloofs. Announcement tomorrow

Evidently Vivek Ranadive wasn't shining me on. #NBAKings #NBA

Yes!!!!!!! sacbee.com/2013/05/16/542…

Bogut with just 3 shot attempts in 20 minutes.

If there was any doubt how Harrison Barnes would be moving after hard fall before half. He elevated nicely there #Warriors #Spurs

The Warriors are killing themselves. 4 turnovers in less than 4 minutes of the 3rd Q.

Just spoke briefly with Vivek Ranadive off camera. When asked how close to done deal. "It's Good, we're all good." Hmmm #NBAKings

Barnes just came out of the locker room. Standing o.

From TV, can see his wife there w/ 1 of their kids at their courtside seats. MT @Rob_McAllister: Did not catch Mastrov tonight at Ws gm.

At the Half, #Spurs lead #Warriors 47-40. 16 from Steph Curry, Tim Duncan with 13 for San Antonio - who are shooting 50% to GSW's 41%

Harrison Barnes up and walking under his own power. Looks woozy. Trainer holding his head as they walk back to #Warriors locker room

Harrison Barnes is down. Big fall. Came down hard on right arm/shoulder.

Team is huddled around Harrison Barnes. Oracle is standing in silence. #Warriors #Spurs

Harrison Barnes just took a really hard fall, is down in pain. Legs undercut by Boris Diaw #Warriors #Spurs

Whatever happens in this series, #Warriors are watching Harrison Barnes turn into a legit threat in the #NBA. Blossoming before our eyes

Biedrins has brought the Warriors back in this one. He's bringing incredible energy.

Klay Thompson 0-for-5, another poor start for him at the moment. #Warriors haven't found a way to get him going. #Spurs D too much

San Antonio leads 21-19 after 1st quarter. #Warriors matching #Spurs intensity. No real advantage either way. Each team looking for spark

Kevin Johnson is in the house down in Golden State.

Hearing the Ranadive group & Maloofs are close to closing the deal. Could happen tomorrow. #BapBapBap

Just spoke to Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, said deal between Maloofs & Ranadive soon. Chris Hansen owning 20% "not realistic" #nbakings

David Stern's visit to Oakland to see Game 6 of #Warriors & #Spurs is not expected to include a visit with the media #nbakings

Pipe down, @Ric Bucher: cbsloc.al/110MYPv

Any chance @Ric Bucher responds? Well, maybe with a sulia link. Just admit you were WRONG.

.@Ric Bucher rips Sacramento fans and praises the Maloofs..huh? snd.sc/10vvTBk

Here's the audio of @Ric Bucher showing how clueless he truly is: snd.sc/10vvTBk

.@Ric Bucher defends the Maloofs on his radio show. Rips Sacramento. Sounds like someone is upset about being WRONG.

8 year old girl calls into @GrantNapearshow and drops a "RAZZLE DAZZLE" and that her "sleeves are rolled up to her freakin neck!"

Pita Pit flow #hungry

Last offering from Dallas: Saw Jeanie Buss but never got a chance to ask -- what about her guy (Phil Jackson) and Sac? Still an hour to L.A!

Boarding flight home from Dallas. Channel 10 crew on same flight. USA Today scribe Sam Amick left for Oakland from nearby hate. Weary bunch

Good service is hard to come by anymore. #expectlessdomore

BTW, @James Ham will in Oakland for Ws/Spurs game 6. If Stern, who reportedly will attend, says anything Sac-related, James has you covered.
