FYI, they won't be the Supersonics. As part of the settlement, the NBA has agreed to leave the name and history in Seattle. At least they had the decency to do that...

you guys are definitely taking it better than the losers on other sports sites. All they have to say about us oklahomans/oklahoma is all negative. TarnishedSoul
Why get mad at Oklahoma? They did nothing wrong. It's that jackass Clay Benett we hate.
Very sad, they were a storied franchise, I'd have liked to see them stay put. But hey, at least they're moving to another good basketball city that will support them.

yea its not the Oklahomans' fault, but at the same time you cant help but hope that their team fails and loses support once the honeymoon ends:x
weird how I'm now calling the team I grew up watching, "their team":(
Should do like the cleveland browns did when they moved to baltimore - leave the name and the history so a team could return to seattle and retain its heritage.
Its gonna be mad wierd to watch them. new name and especially new colored jerseys...hopefully when the Nets move to brooklyn they keep the colors and just call them The Brooklyn Nets. I wonder what the jersey will look like cuz having "Brooklyn" on the jersey will make it look like crap

"Bennett said at a news conference in Oklahoma City that the original team banners and 1979 championship trophy will stay in Seattle, but "we will create duplicate banners and championship trophy that we believe will be assets we want to have."

Not to mention...Oklahoma City...Supersonic...is anybody on here old enough to get why that's a TERRIBLE combination?
They could be called the Thunder - think thats the name that won in the polling which heard on First Take yesterday. Thunder just sounds so AFL though. Another choice in the poll was Cougars or was it Mustangs which would be ok.
