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

That's what is being reported this morning. I have no confirmation of that, but the city has scheduled a press conference for this morning to make an announcement on the KeyArena proposal.

It sounds like the city was unable to come up with the $75 million it needed to make the $300 million project whole, and now will take a step back.

If this is the case it will be interesting to see what happens with Fred Brown and David Bean's $1 billion proposal to build a state-of-the-art facility that could host an NBA and NHL team. Will that gain steam now, or will support waver for the project as well?

Stay tuned. I'll have more later as I learn more.
