Rain is much better than tornados.

Seattle will probably get the Grizzlies or the Hornets (If business sucks) down the line.

Howard Shultz owned Starbucks.

Howard Shultz owned the Sonics.

Howard Shultz sold the team to a guy who obviously was going to take a long piss all over Washington State residents.

NBA WHERE "Relocation" HAPPENS

The Grizzlies will be the new Sonics back to Seattle.

This blows.

Only Mark Cuban and Paul Allen voted against letting Seattle break the lease among the owners.

All the others should be publicly kicked in the balls for this. Stern should be put in a stockade and have tomatoes tossed at him for a week.

Of course, we should have seen this coming no matter what. After all, Stern is the one that let George Shinn actively kill the fan base in Charlotte so he could leave and didn't do a damn thing then. Why start now?

having been to both several times I can tell you OKC is nice but doesn't hold a candle to Seattle.

OKC is like if you took Forth Worth, Texas and moved it away from the Dallas Metroplex area away from everything of substance.

I would personally kick Les Alexander in the balls if given the chance. And then pull a Nelson Months.
