Perth aim for crowds of 14,000
The NBL was hot property in the 90's like you said, however the NBA was on TV then. The NBL was live too back then. Then the NBA disappeared and it wasn't hot. Hence the bust. I think Jordan played then too ;)
Perth is a unique setup, and who knows what will happen in a few years time, let alone next season.


wow, never seen someone not renew their membership because their team is too successful.
Guess now I have

"During their 3-peat under Goorjian, the Kings never once sold out the Sydney Entertainment Centre.....not even for a Grand Final. Their best was (IIRC) around 9,500 for a GF game against either Wollongong or the Titans."
How could Goorjian's Kings ever have played the Titans?

I think this year perhaps more than last year, their offensive work hasnt been as strong. Ennis despite his detractors bought more offense to the team, whereas DeAndre is a more rounded player. Hes starting to pick up a little more tempo so it will be interesting to see how that pans out.
Im not sure the Arena getting 'old' will factor into it too much.
Someone mentioned Adelaide's Arena. Its not even comparable. Even when it was new, it was way outta the way for people to get to in terms of public transport. Sure you can drive there, but then you get the 'everyone leaving at once' traffic snarl on the way home. Perth Arena is really there for public transport. You can park a car in the area but its the CBD. Youd be crazy to even try.

The baselines are left blank as they are reserved for sponsorship advertisements which have not yet been purchased. But I agree, it really should be filled in with Red or Wildcats logos as it looks quite bland.
Last time I checked they were asking for about $100K for the baseline advertising so I doubt it will be bought any time soon.
