Clock Is Ticking For City’s NBA Hopes (Seattle Times)

Departed NBA Basketball Team And If It Will Return (click here for full story)

PS Charlotte and Sacramento and not Seattle for the NBA? This is wrong!! Something needs to happen as far as Key Arena getting remodeled because we will not get another Sonic team until this is done. This is a fact! The politicians will be in session soon. We have to put pressure on them to act!!!

I will not get to see Jamal Crawford, Rodney Stuckey, Spencer Hawes, Nate Robinson, Marcus Williams, and Brandon Roy come home to play a game. This is wrong!!

We have to follow Seattle U, the Huskies and other local teams. And no Sonics.

We need Lenny Wilkens, Gary Payton, Shawn Kemp, Downtown Fred Brown, Slick Watts and basketball legend Bill Russell (who lives in the Seattle area) to STAND UP and speak out about the Sonics returning here after the Key gets remodeled. That has to happen first.

In watching games on NBA-TV, I see a lot of empty seats at Bobcat and Kings games. Maybe they might want to move to Seattle. Again, after the Key is remodeled.

As the Rev Jesse Jackson Sr. says, “Keep Hope Alive” for the Key to get up to date and keep hope alive for the return of NBA basketball to Seattle. Gordon Curvey
