    Let’s not do the same thing that was done to Seattle to get the team back. Thunder fans had nothing to do with the decision to take the Sonics away, it’s not like they wanted to spite Seattle fans. They just wanted a team. Getting the team back by way of making a bunch of Oklahoman basketball fans sad would just be wrong. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

I am loyal to all the Seattle teams now, but the Sonics are the only Seattle team that I have been a fan of my whole life! When I got into them, KC Jones was their head coach. They had Benoit Benjamin, Dana Barros, Ricly Pierce and, Eddie Johnson. I hope the Sonics come back!!!!

Maybe Minneapolis, San Antonio, Jacksonville, Buffalo, Charlotte need more pro sports. NBA is better on TV anyway, in person they look languid, injured, too close to the cup
