Are the Sonics Moving to Oklahoma? Court Case...

BootsyGraham

The court trial is set for today... What happened? I really don't want them to move and I live in California. I understand moving teams but not the Sonics! They're part of the history of Seattle. It would be like moving the Lakers or Celtics at this point. So what's the latest on the Sonics moving to Oklahoma?

One of the many lawsuits is scheduled for today at the courthouse on 7th & Stewart in Seattle at 4:30PM. I know there's supposed to be a huge protest today, so why not join in? There's going to be a few local radio stations, S.O.S., Sonic players, and the public.

I live in California now. Haha. I lived in Seattle for about ten years when I was younger though. Sam Perkins was the best Sonic back in the day. He's still my favorite player.

Let's keep this thread updated with any information regarding the case. This could make or break part of next season for me. :(

if they move to Oklahoma City, I give them 8 years before they go bankrupt. First 3 or 4 will be great, if not playoffs though, they lose support after 5 yrs, then they'll be looking to move again. Maybe Flagstaff, AZ or Portland, ME will want a team?

Was anybody at the protest? What happened?
