I'm focused on the fact that the Pistons own the Palace and the only parking. They are not going to pay for a competing venue to lease and split revenue on. There is no evidence to suggest that people don't go to The Palace because it's in Auburn Hills. The Pistons will not get a better stadium deal then the one they have.
