Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game

The Sonics just sent out a press release announcing the trade. Here's a quote from Seattle general manager Sam Presti.
"We feel very good about the trade that brings us the Spurs 2009 first round draft pick, Francisco Elson and Brent Barry," Presti said. "In particular, looking at the first round pick, in combination with our other future picks, we have great flexibility to add to our core or acquire another impact player in the future. At the same time, Kurt is a tremendous person and player, and I appreciate his contributions this season and wish him success."
