You can get to the location they are talking about this week from Seattle by two bridges (520 & 90), or you can also get to it by the 405 freeway from the North (Everett) and from the South (Renton)

You know as well as I Seattle traffic is a constant gong show and while you can get over the lake in 15 to 20 minutes it can also take an hour if some schmoe rear ends someone, if you want people in the business community to attend a game you keep the arena downtown and they go for dinner after work then walk to the game followed by a cocktail or beer after in the downtown, shove it in Bellevue and it is no nearer to anyone and it sits in an entertainment wasteland (Glendale), the best thing about Seattle is the centralised nature of its entertainment district, it may take hours to plow down the through the I.5 but at least once you get there you can dump the car and reach everything pretty well on foot.
