With the Sonics training camp set to begin on Monday, the team plans to release its roster invitee list tomorrow (Thursday). I’ll have the full list along with a short story. And I plan to write a preview looking at some of the main story lines heading into camp, as we make the switch to reporting what is happening on the basketball floor.
I’ll have daily updates from training camp starting next week, including interviews, injury updates, analysis on how guys are playing at practice and other tidbits. What else are you interested in knowing next week? Let me know in the comments section and I’ll try to address your concerns.
I also will be adding to the resource list on the right side of the page links I think will be helpful to provide more information throughout the year, including statistical breakdowns and analysis. I’ll let you know when I start to post those links.
I’m looking forward to covering camp, but I’ll keep you updated with what is happening on the arena front as well, so stay tuned.
For now, check out these links.
The Oklahoman columnist Berry Tramel talks about the City of Seattle’s battle with the Sonics over KeyArena.
The big news of the day is The Matrix, Phoenix’s Shawn Marion has said that it’s time to move on and wants to be traded.
According to the rumor mill the Los Angeles Lakers are interested, and willing to ship Lamar Odom to the Suns.
TrueHoop’s Henry Abbott has a pretty good analysis of the Marion situation here.
Shawn Stockton, the nephew of NBA legendary point guard John Stockton, has accepted a scholarship offer to play basketball at the University of Montana according to this report.
COMMENTS:
Barry Tramel was just a dud. flatter'n a cow pie on a hot summer day.
interesting question from psheehy about westhead. what do you think?
As Barry Tramel said this whole thing is an example of Oklahoma oil money at work. But , predatory capitalism some times bit the hand that feeds it.
The Phoenix Mercury averaged 95.8 ppg in winning the WNBA title, so Westhead knows how to play uptempo and get his teams to put the ball in the basket.
Overall, I think it makes Seattle's bench stronger, especially on game nights.
With the departures of Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis, I'd like to know who you see stepping into a leadership role on the team as a whole. I know Kurt Thomas and the other guys are brought in for veteran leadership at their individual positions but who's taking charge of team morale and helping keep training camp productive. The team lost both of their undisputed leaders and I think this is a big key in forcasting how our season might go. This might be Kevin Durant's team now but he can't be expected to fill such an important and veteran role.
