It was sad story when the Seattle Supersonics left Seattle and went to Oklahoma City. The Supersonics left behind 40 years of history. They also left behind a successful franchise and a bunch of passionate fans. Just think right now the Seattle Supersonics would be one of the best teams in the NBA as the Oklahoma City Thunder are now. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook would be dominating in Seattle not Oklahoma City.
So how is Seattle going to get a team? I don’t see the NBA expanding just because so many franchises are struggling to make money. Plus that would make 31 teams in the NBA and then the NBA would have to find another franchise to make an even 32 teams. So the most likely way Seattle will get a team is by a franchise relocating to Seattle. That team is the Sacramento Kings.

Clearly, Russell Westbrook likes to be on the cutting edge of fashion both on and off the court. Just yesterday he arrived at LA’s Staples Center wearing what appears to be a leather t-shirt, then took the floor in a pair of Thunder-themed Air Jordan III player exclusives that sent Twitter into a frenzy (personally, I think it’s an ugly colorway). In another recent on-court...

Not in the Oklahoma City Thunder locker room, though. Not with the Lakers just a shell of their former selves. Not with bigger fish to fry. These Thunder have their eyes on a grander prize.
