    Wow I remember when I saw the Bulls Sonics final more than a decade ago and I remember everything like yesterday, I was in high school and personally Gary Peyton was my idol. Shawn Kemp was an impressive athlete and a show man at that time.
    What a great time that season, things are different now. It doesnt matter which team you like this video touches anyone.
    Thanks it was great saw GP and SK one more time.

    Hopefully we'll get a team back and be able to retire The Glove's number here.

    Hello there Seattle. I am from OKC. I would just like to say that, that video is very touching, and put together very well. I cannot understand you guys's pain. I wanted the NBA here, but by this method. While I always knew the NBA would put a team in OKC, I honestly expected an expansion to be announced today. I hope the Sonics name and legacy can stay where it belongs, as you guys deserve it. Again very nice video, and keep your heads up. You'll get another team I'm sure of it.

    i just wanna say thanks to anyone who supported my team staying here in seattle, clay bennett didnt just move a team from seattle to okc. he stole a big part of my child hood. i grew up watching payton and kemp, and it hurts to know that now every october i wont be able to watch the first game of the sonics season like i have done for so long. i pray, that the people and the city of seattle does somthing to get us another team.

    If this means anything coming from a thunder fan, we all wish that this didn't happen the way it did for you guys. I believe you guys should've gotten an expansion team already, and that it's unfair that you don't. When the hornets went to nola, Charlotte got the Bobcats fairly quick (we all know they were pitifully bad), and it's a shame you don't already. We are grateful for the sacrifice that you guys had to make for us. I just wish you guys could enjoy the thunder as much as we do here in Oklahoma, because I know most of you guys hate the thunder. Don't worry though, because the team is in good hands.

    • @brandonbaumann9632
      @brandonbaumann9632 9 років тому

      Okc doesn't deserve that team. Fuck David Stern. Supersonic were awesome, Oklahoma city named their team the Thunder, lol talk about a gay name. it's all good though cuz Durant and Westbrook bout to leave and then okc will be a horrible team for years to come.

    • @BarkingBullshark
      @BarkingBullshark 9 років тому

      +Brandon Baumann I just said you deserve Seattle deserves a team and that they got the short end of the stick and I get a reply like this. Awesome. Maybe I should feel a little different about how you guys stand towards us and yet we feel remorseful for you guys.

    • @brandonbaumann9632
      @brandonbaumann9632 9 років тому

      +Cole Eichhorn it doesn't matter what you think, you guys stole our team. Maybe not you the person, but to me it feels like everyone from okc took away our team. I will never root for okc.

    • @BarkingBullshark
      @BarkingBullshark 9 років тому

      +Brandon Baumann you obviously don't know how they moved so I'm just gonna inform you a little bit. They needed a new arena, and you guys weren't willing to pay for one, so clay bennet, aka the guy who sold the team to okc, gave the team to some okc businessmen, the rest is history

    • @brandonbaumann9632
      @brandonbaumann9632 9 років тому

      +Cole Eichhorn i know how they left. and clay bennett shouldn't be allowed to even be in the nba after what he did. it's howard Schultz fault for selling the team to him, but bennett lied about trying to keep the team in seattle, he never wanted them to stay there. his building proposal was going to be the most expensive arena in the nba. he knew it was going to be rejected. and after that he did all he could to move the team to okc. I have been to okc, and it is not near as big as seattle and it does not have the atmosphere that seattle does. David stern, clay bennett and howard Schultz should be in jail for what they did.

  • @megax11
    @megax11 16 років тому

    Well like I said Seattle peeps, this video is very touching. Almost made this Oklahomans tear up. When I voted on March 4th for the Ford Center renovations, I was desperately hoping this would show the NBA what we needed to show them, and they would've granted us an expansion. No one in the world should want a taken team (even though it has happened 3 times in the past 10 years in the NBA,) but if it does boil down to that, we can at least treat the team with a ton of respect. Good luck Seattle.

  • @hoopsffl
    @hoopsffl 16 років тому

    Incredible video! Thank you for making it.
    The NBA should develop new markets by adding teams. Destroying NBA history, much less 41 years of it, should be avoided at all costs.
    If the NBA cared half as much about the fans as they cared about money, the arenas would build themselves. The owners do not care about their fans or even their own towns. Incredibly sad.
    OKC deserves a team. Seattle deserves to keep theirs. The NBA and their owners will always regret this move.

    give the sonics back from a 90's bulls and former nets fan. my team is leaving nj and i feel disappointed that they are not moving to the pru center in newark. as a michael jordan fan, i am disappointed by this. they can't take away a team after such a phenomenal performance in the 90s

    I'm from OKC. I feel bad about how this has transpired. But Seattle, meet Cleveland. Cleveland lost their Browns to Baltimore (in a purpley attempt to make up for the overnight hijacking that sent the team to Indianapolis). About 4 years passed, then the Browns became an expansion team, like nothing happened, only there was an empty space of 4 years. I bet this will happen eventually. As for us, I hope we can match (and exceed) what love we had for the Hornets.

    I agree. Seattle needs the Sonics. Oklahoma can get an expansion team if they want one so badly. Make their own history instead of stealing ours. I love the Sonics, even when they after their poor performance last year. Everyone wait, in a few years they'll be great. Durant, Green, Collison, Watson (get rid of Luke), Westbrook, and Wilkins. They are all just young. Bring back the Glove!

    @westholmes2001 16 років тому

    The Sonics need to Seattle! I am from Ohio, but I have always enjoyed the Sonics. The Sonics have over forty years and for it to be stolen away is a travesty. The Sonics have had great players such as "Slick" Watts, Spencer Haywood, Jack Sikma, Dennis Johnson, Xavier McDaniel, Dale Ellis, Nate McMillian, Shawn Kemp, Gary Payton, Ray Allen, and Kevin Durant and great teams, and just because there isn't a fancy arena, you have to betray the fans. If OKC wants an NBA team, get an expansion team!

    I'm from NC, and while I do like Westbrook, Durant, etc. on OKC, but they are NOTHING compared to the greatness of Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton when they were on the Seattle SuperSonics and the spirit these teams had. Too bad David Stern, Howard Schultz and Clay Bennett f'ed this team over.

  • @nathanpillay41

    This would be the correct lineup if we didn't make any crazy off-season trades:
    pg-watson/ridnour
    sg-allen
    c-petro
    pf-wilcox/collison
    sf-lewis
    KD would come off the bench and be a beast like Manu Ginobili.

    I know Shawn Kemp is old and it is unlikley that the Sonics would take him in after the move to Oklahoma. But think about it! Shawn Kemp has had thirteen children with nine different women. That kind of kid crap happens in Oklahoma all the time. I think the team and Shawn will fit right in!

  • @nathanpillay41
    @nathanpillay41 16 років тому

    well it's hard to get fans when a team wins less than 20 games. but you can't expect the fans to do all the work. Charles Barkley said himself that the city should have done at least half of the work, with some support from the league. i understand what you're saying, but the attendance would not make the franchise fall. within the next couple years, we could get some leadership and a couple good players, and just like that we would be a team that's recognized again.

    I just watched a video clip where David Stern was at aSonic game about 10 years ago talking about how the 100 million dollar Key Arena stadium remodel was one of the best in the NBA. Seattle has given everything to the Sonics and met every reasonable request made to them. For David Stern to blast our city and our leaders and twist the facts shame on him. It seems that he and Clay must be good old friends because he has done everything he can to hurt Seattle and the Sonics and he cares not fans

  • @obiwannotanikan
    @obiwannotanikan 16 років тому

    You're right on the money with that one. I can't believe this happened. Schultz should have never sold the team to Bennett. There are plenty of rich people in the Seattle area. Microsoft? Boeing? And David Stern is a dick. It's all about the money. Except for fans, and we don't have a say. Funny, the only people who care.

  • @westholmes2001
    @westholmes2001 16 років тому

    It sickens me that the NBA decides to move a team just because the arena isn't good for them! If you go back to the 80's and early 90's, teams like the Celtics with their Boston Garden and the Chicago Bulls with Chicago Stadium, both of which had been in existence for longer than the Key Arena, which had been renovated just a decade earlier to accomodate modern standards. It doesn't make sense at all!
