They won't have a team, but because their crap owners decided to sell it does not in any way make it Hansen's fault. 
That the sonic crap owners decided to move doesn't make it okc's fault,  but Seattle fans still reacted pretty bitterly

Q
Bennett bought the team and publicly reiterated that he had no intention of moving the team.  Everyone knows the maloofs are idiots who just want as much money as possible.  Deceitful jerks vs. morons.  The situations are completely different

Seattle should have expected Bennett to move the team. An OKC businessman buys an NBA team with an expiring arena lease shortly after OKC showed that it's arena and people could support an NBA team when they had the Hornets post-Katrina. What did the people of Seattle think would happen?

They're not and clearly don't know what you are talking about if you think these situations are the same.

All the Seattle fans who loved playing the victim are just latching onto anything they can to make it okay for them to get another cities team after they spent years screaming about theirs being taken

With the Sonics (1979 NBA champions) gone, there is now only one pro team in Seattle that has ever won a title...the WNBA Seattle Storm (twice, 2004 and 2010).

Blew the injury-riddled Timberwolves out of the water tonight.  A good test tomorrow against the rock-solid Bulls.

This may not go here, but saw this tonight and thought it was pretty great.  Say what you want about Lebron, but I can't see many other superstars doing this.

I'm glad he got rid of McGee, but I don't trust Nene to stay healthy.  Wall's knee injury combined with his style of play could be an issue too. 

They'd be a ton better with Harden on the roster.  Who knows where they would be or who they would have if they had not committed all those millions to Baltche and Arenas.  They gave Arenas $100 mil after he hurt his knee.  Maybe they'd be better with players other than Jan Vesely and the other wasted 1st round picks. 

Ernie may have cleared the low bar set for him by ownership, but that's not good enough for me.

Good game so far.

Someone needs to work with Seraphin on his rebounding. He's a very good offensive post player now, but he's a below average defender and rebounder.

Big win again tonight.  Wall, Nene, and Okafor all played well.  Defense was very good.

Beal may be playing hurt.

StubHub is listing pairs in the 100's starting at $40/ticket. (My own ticket is in the 400's.)

I think the cut-off is age 3 as far as people having to have their own ticket (I'm going to tonight's match - if I remember, I'll ask someone).

So with the Wizards playing the LAC tonight, who do you think Spidey is secretly pulling for?

UPDATING: Checked with a chap at the ticket windows last night and the above is correct - 3 years old and up need their own ticket, 2-year-old can get in without.
