Schultz's lawsuit is all about saving face in his home town. I used to love the Sonics. but if this is how the NBA is going to do business, then fuck them all. Their chickenshit shall come home to roost.

I've never been much of a b-ball fan, so I never went to see a Sonics game when I lived in Seattle. That being said, bad-faith owners seem to have a history in Seattle, and I do remember anguishing over the difficulties with M's and Seahawk ownership.

My advice to the city of Seattle would be to negotiate with Bennett to keep the Sonics name for Seattle, let him take his pathetic team to OKC, where its sure to lose money, they don't want the OKC SONICS anyway so it should be a no brainer. Then sue the bejeezus out of the NBA for foisting this bad-faith ownership upon the city and causing so much grief. Fresh team, same name, fresh start. Easy peazy.

Uh, Daniel, this "pathetic team" has the 2008 Rookie of the Year in Kevin Durant, another top 10 rookie in Jeff Green, a good possibility of getting the #1 overall pick next year and a crapload of first round draft picks coming up. Don't let this tank job of a season fool you: This is a dynasty in the making.
