While I am sorry to see our region lose the Sonics, it was obvious from the logic, statements, and body language that the team’s new owners were posturing to move the Sonics to Oklahoma all along. Very few of us were unable to figure this out.
At least the owners are finally coming clean with this information.
The only thing that could keep the Sonics in Seattle now is a new local owner. I think this is very unlikely, but not out of the question with all the wealth in our area.
It’s too bad we spent so much tax money in Renton in a doomed quest to keep them here. Several of us would have slowed down the spending a bit if we could have.
