Thank You, Oklahoma City

I hope tonight won't be the last NBA game in OKC. I was skeptical at first, but they've proved they're a major league city, and have given the Hornets a homecourt advantage they never had after leaving Charlotte. They've shown they're great fans, and I wish them luck in getting the Sonics.

That would be sad to have a team leave you. I bet some people got really attached to them.

I've said it before and I'll say it again-- nicest fans I have ever met at any NBA arena.

Heres to OKC.

Hope you get the Sonics, and move into the division s

I think it was especially poignant because OKC is a city that understands tragedy.

[angel_luv]

Very True. I hadn't even made the connection till you mentioned it, Ploto.

Oklahoma has proved to be a terrific venue for the NBA. I hope they get a team soon.

That never dawned on me until you brought it up.
OKC has some passionate fans that is for sure.....so it seems.

It would be cool for them to get a team but it will be tough for that to happen. The league will do everything it can to keep the Sonics in Seattle since it's a bigger tv market. I think Oklahoma City's best chance is via expansion and I'm not sure when the league looks to address more expansion (if at all).
