    On TNT they referred to OKC and used sonic franchise records. They aren't te sonics and they weren't allowed to take the history with them. Do you see championship banners in OKC?

    Really pisses me off!

    What I hate is when the NBA puts "EL or LA" in front of a team's name and consider it in"honor" of Latin heritage.

    They take into account Buffalo Braves stats when they talk about the Clippers. Its the same franchise. I don't have a problem with it.

    That is so dumb, isn't it?

    How about "El Sols" for PHX, or "El Lagos" for the Lakers?

    I consider it a Spanglish tribute, at best. :)

    The Thunder were the Sonics right? I mean Kevin Durant and Sam Presti were in Seattle at one point right?

    I don't get this being a big deal.

    I can understand it. If my Blazers left for say Fresno.... I would be pissed hearing them talk about our 76-77 Championship team.

    Enjoy it, and don't post on the board during the game if you really do want to enjoy it.

    I'll be watching both the Blazer and Duck games at the same time while the ladies of the house are at Brownies until 8:30. Great night for hoops!

    When I do watch a game, I wait and start it about 45 minutes late. The HCP can't do the commercials...... but you know what. I may watch live and post on here tonight. I love the doomsday stuff that goes on here.
