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.

Eric Williams covered the Sonics' last season in Seattle. A Tacoma native, Eric graduated from Mount Tahoma High and the University of Puget Sound.

Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game
Thursday, March 6th, 2008
Posted by Eric Williams @ 08:14:06 am

After two pretty good efforts Seattle struggles against a short-handed Milwaukee squad, losing 118-106.

The Sonics saw a lot of Charlie Villanueva, who started for injured rookie Yi Jianlian and finished with 32 points and 11 rebounds.

P.J. Carlesimo and Donyell Marshall had words on the sideline over defensive rotations, but Marshall said it was only a minor incident.

Listen to a conversation with Marshall here.

And the NBA is coming to Oklahoma City, or at least the relocation committee is on March 25 to check out the city’s Ford Center facility and review the city’s potential as an NBA city.

With less than two weeks left in the state Legislative session, Mitch Levy of KJR makes a plea for lawmakers in Olympia to seriously consider a recent $300 million plan to revamp KeyArena in which the state would have to contribute $75 million to the project. $75 million would be put up by the city, and $150 million would be put up by a group of Seattle-area private investors. I’ll have more on this today.

David Stern again has harsh words for Seattle and the situation with the Sonics in a visit to Portland on Tuesday.
