Kings are always an obvious target. But if they get the arena plan passed (which has more supporters than naysayers) then they stay in Sac. Not sure who else could possibly move besides the Hornets.

They're also trying to get a NHL team, so with two professional teams, it will be easier to build a new arena

I hope it happens... just sucks that the thunder get to keep our history and wat not... hope the new look sonics (if we get them) can still sport those sick green and gold jerseys that we all love and not some crappy ones

I think Seattle has until the end of this year to establish a franchise and, if they do, they take all their history back with them. At least I think that's right...

How about OKC gives back the "Thunder" to Seattle and then they take the Kings. Then we'll see how many fans show up to games in OKC. They didn't wait through years of losing like Seattle did. The deserve to start out with Cousins and Evans.

How about you jackasses stop blaming the fans for what went down and direct your anger to Stern and Bennett? Jesus.

As good as the team and fans are, the Thunder still have the lamest name and logo in all of sports. Everytime I go to the domestic cleaning aisle in the grocery store I half expect to see their logo next to the Tide and Bounty
