Probably the same way Clevelanders felt during the '00 NFL postseason. :guilty:

If the government in Washington had approved a new arena for the Sonics (a team that actually had a championship banner and some success) like they did stadiums for the Seahawks & Mariners (who have little track record of success), Durant and company would would have been celebrating in Seattle last night instead of OKC.

So its seattle's fault the new owner from oklahoma held the city hostage and tried to blackmail them out of tax money for an arena?

I agree it was a shytty move by the NBA to allow what transpired to take place.

I'm saying the percentage of blame for them not being in Seattle last night isn't 100% on Clay Bennett and that ownership group. The City of Seattle and Washington have some culpability in this too.

I feel sorry for Sonics fans. They suffered through a rebuild and didn't get to see Durant and Westbrook (both drafted by Seattle) blossom... hell, they didn't even get to see Westbrook in Sonics colors except for the draft.

so what....I hate when ppl make this argument

this is like the go to line of politics..."both parties are to blame...2 wrongs don't make a right blah blah blah"

2 ppl being wrong doesn't mean they were both equally wrong. Fault isn't 50/50.

So what if clay bennett isn't 100% wrong, if that nikka is 70% wrong ITS STILL HIS fukkN FAULT

naw, from my understanding it was the fakkit that owns Starbucks that sold the team to the hicks from OKC. and that was the end of the Sonics.
