Hello,

Go figure. I can't believe King County didn't build the Supersonics (not the Sonics, by the way) an arena. I truly believe well-built, lavish arenas end up paying for themselves many times over. One can't overestimate the value for one's city vis a vis television and marketing when it comes to an NBA franchise.


While I agree I think the billionaire owners should foot 1/2 the bill. (Especially in the NFL but most of the NBA owners have money to burn, the Maloof owners of Sacramento not withstanding.)

Oh, well. I'll always have the Sounders. ;)

1st Utah pick: Enes Kanter from Turkey/Kentucky

Jimmer might fall to Utah at 12. It's a weird draft.

He was taken 10th by Milwaukee and will probably be traded to Sacramento.

If The Jimmer can be had in a trade, the Jazz should snatch him.

Think what Larry Bird did for Celtics ticket sales. Jimmermania could help at the Toxic Waste arena.

You're comparing Jimmer to Larry Bird? Seriously?

Actually, they changed their name officially to the Sonics a few years before they moved.

The guy can shoot a bit but can't guard paint on a non-moving park bench. He will play some but that is about it. The novelty effect will wear off quickly.

Big question is whether he will inform the team that he won't play or practice no Sundays?

Hello,

Actually, I don't give a craptastic crap. They're the Supersonics, and that's that.

That's that!
