Gee thanks, Clay. What about your homeys in OKC who made the New Orleans Hornets one of the best attended teams in the league over the last two years? Besides, we already have a brand new arena.
They are not moving the team to Vegas. Most of the partners in the Sonics got into it specifically to bring them to OKC. Some of them are also partners in the Colcord hotel, which has extra long beds for basketball players.
That being said, I hope they move to Vegas. Basketball culture sucks, and I wish Oklahomans weren’t so insecure that they think they are somehow better if there is a pro basketball team in the state. Plus, in a few years they will just demand some new stadium, which of course the voters will gladly pay for because having a pro team makes them feel better about themselves.
