    Might be about the new soccer team coming to Sacramento.
    NBA Champions of 2006-2007: Sacramento Kings

    Kevin Martin - April 29th, 2006

    His first game winner. Sophomore. Vs the Spurs.

    I know nothing about KJ's tweeting habits, but wouldn't that be kind of an odd combination to promot ehte soccer team signing wiht an NBA tweet? Seem an NBA issue would be more likely, but maybe he just thinks sports fans of any sort would care about a soccer team.

    I was just thinking Kevin would be excited for introducing something related to the new soccer team coming as it is a new form of entertainment for the city of Sacramento and I'm sure that excited Kevin Johnson and company.

    Lebron is going to buy the Kings, keep them in Sacramento and join the roster as Owner-Coach?

    I don't think KJ would use a Kings tweet to tease something about the soccer team. The timing and the inclusion in a comment about the Kings just doesn't seem to fit his usual style.

    I wouldn't get too hyped up on this. More often then not these special announcements end up being something really underwhelming.... like Kevin Johnson attending a Kings game or something....lol

    Apparently the special announcement is that LeBron will be speaking at a function for KJ when they are in town.

    Seems about right...
    "The current Sacramento Kings owners have proven time and time again that they do not care about the squad’s fans, the community that surrounds the team, and the product on the court. The Sacramento Kings owners are sniveling, conniving front-runners that do not understand the game of basketball, much less the ideals that help buttress attempts at tact, poise and reason." - Kelly Dwyer
