Re: Who do you think is the next team to relocate and where?
It should get better if they move to the Prudential Center in downtown Newark. The main problem they faced at the Meadowlands is that it is, quite literally, in the middle of nowhere. Most arenas these days are built as part of a downtown revitalization, bringing up local bars and restaurants and what not. There's no public transportation to drop you off right in front of the arena. All that would be solved by going to Newark. I don't think they'll sell out the arena (their fanbase is too small), but I think you'd see attendance numbers jump just due to people actually being able to GET TO the arena, especially for weeknight games. Moving to Brooklyn is so NOT the answer.
