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.

Post-Sonics Watch
Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game
Monday, June 16th, 2008
From the courthouse
Posted by Eric Williams @ 08:46:51 am

We're about to get started here. Sonics chairman Clay Bennett entered the courtroom about 20 minutes ago with his legal team, and may testify today. Also scheduled to testify today is Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels.

Click here for more information on the case.

I took a couple shots from outside the courtroom before I went through security. Outside stood a few Sonics fans waiting for the lottery to start so they can attend the trial, and some media members waiting to get a shot of Bennett coming into the courtroom.

I also talked to Brian Robinson of Save Our Sonics about the case, and you can listen to that here.

I'll have an update after the morning break.

Thanks for the update and audio link to your interview with Brian Robinson. It should be interesting to see if the judge bites on the Sonics' "unclean hands" argument. Didn't the Sonics' attorneys say in some of its motions a while ago that this is about one thing only: specific performance?
