Post-Sonics Watch
Feeling lost without your Seattle SuperSonics? Seattle-area NBA fans face their first season without an NBA team in 41 years. Primarily, our coverage here will focus on the City of Seattle’s attempt to bring the NBA back to Seattle. But we also will provide updates on the Portland Trail Blazers, the Oklahoma City Thunder and area players plying their trade for other teams in the NBA.

Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game
Friday, November 2nd, 2007

In case you missed it this morning, a local ownership group headed by Dennis H. Daugs, a private wealth manager and managing director of Lakeside Capital Management LLC.

The group issued a news release today saying the group had written a formal letter of interest to Sonics owner Clay Bennett of Oklahoma City, who also owns the Seattle Storm of the WNBA.

“We want to recapture the spirit and love of basketball in Seattle by bringing the Sonics and Storm back to local ownership,” said Daugs, a former minority owner of the NBA franchise. Read more about the story here.

This is one of a couple groups that's been rumored to be interested in buying the Sonics.

Problem is, Clay Bennett's group is not interested in selling the Sonics. The Sonics ownership group is expected to make an announcement today regarding the future of the team.

I'll keep you posted throughout the day on what is happening in what figures to be a busy news day regarding the Sonics. For those who wish to discuss last night's game, pop in and comment here, or continue on last night's post and I'll pop in to comment further on team stuff.
