True Hoop Article on Sonics

Came across this article that interviews Steven Pyeatt, one of the founders of Save Our Sonics. The article contains a lot of good information about the differences between Seattle and Oklahoma City.

While you can't be completely confident until an arena deal is reached, the facts are very encouraging. Clearly the plan has to be to keep this in the court system, cost Bennett tons of money, and get the legislation to develop a reasonabe financial plan. If this stays in the courts and costs Bennett and his group lots of money, hopefully they will become frustrated and sell the team to the local buyer group.

Also, on College GameDay this morning there was a sign being held up in the background that said: Save Our Sonics, along with something else but I couldn't quite read what it said. Any little bit of publicity we can get to show our support for our NBA team is awesome.

*We were checking out Ballhype and found
this link. It is from SuperSonicSoul where they suggest everyone write a letter to David Stern, telling him how much we want the team to stay in Seattle. We full-heartly agree with this idea and will be sending one to the commish. It is time to get serious in this fight, the guys at SuperSonicSoul are starting it.
