Re: Sonics, Seattle reach settlement

That sucks. I knew it wouldn't happen, but I was hoping the Sonics would force a way to stick around.

 

Re: Sonics, Seattle reach settlement

Sources in Seattle say Sonics are going to Oklahoma City, and Bennett could pay up to $75 million.

I hope OKC goes 0-82 next year.

Sorry, OKC fans.... But Bennett dicked over Seattle.

 

Re: Sonics, Seattle reach settlement

I agree, Bennett is a leech of the lowest moral degree and Stern is a fraud for letting this happen.

 

Re: UPDATE: Sonics headed for OKC, $75 million headed to Seattle

Yes, but let's blame the people of OKC. Let's just hope they fail to punish one man.

If it happened to my favorite NBA team, I'd be at the bar right now drinking as much beer as I could possibly handle, each round dedicated to Clay Bennett's financial demise.

Who's blaming the people of OKC?

 

Re: UPDATE: Sonics headed to OKC, $75 million headed to Seattle

Would you rather have Ted Stepien own the Sonics?
