I read that Shultz sold them to a guy in Oklahoma for 350 million?

Will you miss the sonics if they move to oklahomo?

What is your best memory of the SOnics?

 

I could really care less if the sonics move.I am Husky basketball fan and I know they are not going anywhere

 

I'm a basketball fan and I like the players here, but our TEAM sucks! That's why Shultz sold them, they SUCK too much to get a new arena... Not to mention the Front Office has never been any good! Face it! They're gone! Oklahoma doesn't have a team and they REALLY want one! Once they are gone then we will build a new arena and get an expansion team or some BS in a few years. It's not like anyone actually goes to the games or is willing to bare the burden of paying MORE taxes for a 3rd sports venue in the last 5 years! Everyone just boycott Starbucks and teach that greedy b*tch a lesson! lol

By the way I am with FCDrift on this one, college basketball is WAY better than NBA!

 

mazdatim have you ever been to a UW game?Man i love that place when theres a big game its just insane

 

I will miss the games between Portland and Seattle.

 

I miss Payton and Kemp. The pinnacle of the Sonics.

Alley-oop from half court from Payton to Kemp on the baseline FTW!

 

Yea but I don't miss half the stadium being filled with Kemp's kids.

 

^^

FCDrift: Yea UW games are way better. I have been to a couple. Back when Donald Watts was here and Doug Wrenn.

 

I went to 4 games last year. My friend is a huge fan. I talked to him last night an he literally started to tear up. I asked him why he was so upset...he said, what if they removed all the race tracks from Wa state...and I was like ohhhh... I could really care less LOL

He also compared it to losing his father...wtf? lol

 

Man next it will be Portland but wait..... We only have one full time team here. Man that sucks if the Sonics do move . I've seen the Blazers up there a few times but not in the last 8 years or so.

 

Bah, Oklahoma can have them...

 

Paul Allen owns the Blazers... he wouldn't move/sell that team.

 

I think the sonics might be good this year, they are unstopable in NBA live 06 so I figure they have to be good next year, I think I will plan on going to the Cleveland v Sonics game to see lebron and Allen duke it out. Allen is so sick

 

Change the difficulty level!! lol That's when they start to suck! Trust me. I play that game....

 

The team has been for sale for the last couple of months.

WTF?! Our news sucks up here, they just report the same thing every night, seriously! Why would Paul Allen sell the team and not buy the Sonics?! lol Damn these Northwest people.

Howard Schultz is making $80 million off this sale!! That's insane....!

 

Oh he's got them up on the block.Heard everybody from Terry Porter to Mark Waddles (Hollywood video) to Mr. Jordan himself

 

im excited for them to leave, not because i hate basketball or anything but more of the what is going to happen to key center or whatever its called

 

What will happen to that place when they are gone??????

 

exacactly my point.
i mean sure once in a while theres concerts there but for the biggest chunk of the time its used for the sonics which are now gone.
