The sonics problem is no defense. They can put up some points.
Lets not forget their league leading 22.1 TO's a game!

Other than that I think Durant looks fine. he's a rookie, it's going to take time to improve. The key here is what he has shown and he has shown signs of a future great player.
I dont know if i would go with fine. I understand he is a shooter...but some nights you have to know when to pass the rock! 7-21??? Committing over 3 TO's a game?

Its only 7 games and he will improve, but its tought ot watch at times to say the least.

The good news about the Sonics doing horrible this year is that they will have another very high pick. They will be a force in 3-4 years.
Aint that the truth. People have been talkikng about the Sonics getting Mayo from USC.

Problem is that wont be in seattle, so fuck them
:(:(:(

do you live in seattle and/or listen to seattle sports radio everyday for the last couple years? This Schultz fag didn't try for shit. He can tell the media whatever the fuck he wants about not finding any local buyers but the truth is when he decided he wanted to sell the team he did so. He didn't spend a year or more working on it, ensuring that the team goes into the right hands, no he sold the team to the highest bidder. Plain and simple.
No I dont live in Seattle, I can only go by what people say. He couldve sold the team to a group in San Jose, KC or Oklahoma. If no one from Seattle wants to buy the team what is he suppost to do. Only now that the team is being threated to move, is a seattle group trying to buy the team.

Im going by what people say and your going by what people say.

^ thats fucked up, THE nba needs a team in seattle, and stern already said if you guys loose them, don't expect a team there any time soon
Which is DUMB becuase teams are FRANCHISES. Like a McDonalds, anyone can rally to buy one.

I think Stern and Bennett are in some kind of deal, becuase first he was warning Clay, now he is handing him awards at the Oklahoma Hall of Fame (the fuck?)? Somethin smells fishy.

The Key Arena is FINE. I dont know WHY they think they need more...they just renevated that fucker a few years ago!

Thats becuase Bennet LIED about his intentions, which he said were to KEEP them HERE. Now he files for relocation????

Yea it looks like he was complaining about the arena, when the arena isnt in that bad of shape. That was just his excuse.

The niners have needed a new stadium for years but thats not a good reason to move a team that you want to keep there.

^It looks tiny because the stadium itself goes underground.

It is a small arena though compared to others, but seriously it's fine. There is really no need for a bigger arena if you think about it. It's amazing how sports teams blow the fuck up buildings when they are only 15-20 years old and shit (key arena is alot older than that but was renovated not long ago).

THe compalint is about the lack of space for more food and luxury suits from what i understand.
