It is becoming quite apparent that PJ is not the coach for this team. The game has passed him by. He can't even come up with a starting five and bench rotations. This lack of leadershiop is waring the team down. This is when a player bowup could emerge.

PJ has berated his team all season, coupled with the loses, lack of a defined role and I can see a Sprewell waiting to explode the next time he talks abusively to him.

Look how Nate changed his heavy handed approach to a more relaxed but firm rein on his team. PJ doesn't know how to motivate his team, thus players aren't willing to give that all out effort needed to play good defense.

The Sonics need a new coach, they should of hired Casey. Firm but can relate to today's players. I think the fans have done their part showing support for the team, but Clay and Pressi need to put a better product on the flooir. Durant is not enough at this point in his game to carry a team 82 games and energize fan support.

The motive for putting such a non competitive team on the floor can be seen as his attempt to help justify moving the team to OKC.

I am confused on his reasonings that OKC's Ford center is a better arena than the Key? That a mear $100 million in renovations will upgrade it enough to be financially viable? Where $200 million in renovations to the Key isn't good enough? Yet he wants a $500 million new arena from us and not OKC?

To me the bottom line to resolving this is to rework the lease so the Sonics can have the revenue from the games. The city wanting all the parking and consession revenue isn't fair. The team needs to have control over how to best generate revenue from the 42 games at the Key. The city can't have lease rent and all the revenue from the people coming to the game. That's just plain greedy! Come up with a flat lease rent from them that's fair to both and let the Sonics do the rest. They are better suited to know what to charge their advertisers, fans etc for coming to the game. Not the Center!
