They didn't have my size in the home version, but I snagged a size 40 in the green. Does anybody think a Durant Sonics jersey will be a collector's item someday? This is apparently an authentic jersey, not the cheap t-shirt jerseys with the nameplate screenprinted on.

it will be a throwaway in 2 years once they've moved.

it would be if he wasnt a bum...

[monosylab1k]

I'm thinking I'll get one and wear it to an OKC game next year. I wonder how many Mavs fans will show up for a road game there.

He won't be

The NBA Store just put Sonics gear on clearance. Yesterday it was $189, today it lists at $139. And if you enter the promotional coupon FABSAVES, you get an additional $21 off. I had been looking for a Durant jersey since the city settled with PBC and it was official they're going to OKC. Seattle Team Shop had it for $150 but yesterday all Sonic gear disappeared from their website:

nice :tu worst case scenario, Durant is the second coming of the guy in your sig. And that's worst case scenario, so I think an authentic Durant Sonics jersey is a nice investment. Best case scenario, he's Dirk Jordan.

Fillmoe would be right if this were February, but he seemed to start to figure it out towards the end of the season. His shot selection got tons better. It's not his fault he plays out of position for a shitty coach and for the most part he's surrounded by garbage.

Yea, he's going to be a good one. Kid has way to many skills to not be a really good player. Nice purchase.

[lefty]

Derrick Rose and MIchael Beasley jerseys are gonna be on sale too...

Yeah, and I'm a Texas Ex, so he's one of my faves.

:lol

And not because the Bulls and Heat are leaving town.

I wonder if every Texas Wal Mart will be selling Durant's Oklahoma jersey, just like they all sell VY's Titans jersey right next to their Cowboys and UT stuff.

Maybe in Central Texas. I haven't seen that many VY jerseys up here.

[leemajors]

durant was raised on the east coast, VY went to high school in houston.

im going to one of them i know.

They're both former Longhorns. VY probably will be more dear to the hearts of the Longhorn faithful though...

There's been some talk of completely boycotting the OKC Bombers, at least until there's a Seattle Sonics 2.0 back in the Pacific Northwest. As in, don't buy any apparel, don't go to any of their games, either in OKC or the other 29 arenas, or watch their games on tv. With Durant on the team, that last part is extremely hard.

[monosylab1k]

I want to go simply to hold up protest signs in places where a TV camera would hopefully catch it. I wonder if security would go all Gestapo on me.

I wonder if they would go Gestapo on you for showing up in Sonics gear, even if its for a current player like Durant or Green.

[monosylab1k]

I think they might be upset if I bring my planned "OKC gonna get blowed up by the Mavs!" sign. Or maybe "Dirk bombs OKC!"

Actually you should just print out a 30,000 word anti-Clay Bennett manifesto and demand that it be shown on camera...or else.

I bet you fill out that jersey more than Durant does himself !

that dude is a stick

I'm 6'1, 180 lbs. We'll find out in 6-10 business days.

[baseline bum]

Shit, I figured they'd be practically giving away anything with Sonics on it.

[tlongII]

Nice purchase. I think Durant will be very good too. He has a unique set of talents.

Maybe that's the case for a Johan Petro or Adrian Griffin jersey.
