The NO Hornets played in OKC all last year while there place was rebuilt. I think that is why they looked so hard at OKC.. I think they will be fine there.

They will probably be fine DC but it is still going to be weird to think of the old Sonics now being in Oaky land.

Thats true Adam.. but Ok is long over due for a pro team in something.. football needs just too big of a stadium, but BB is about right. I will be taking my son to see the big names when they come to town.

I don't think the issue of "Can the team succeed in OKC?" is nearly as important as the question of whether or not they should ever have left Seattle in the first place. At least they left them the team name and history.

Did you check out those names...... Wind?? LOL!!!

The NBA filed for trademarks on six nicknames for Oklahoma City’s new franchise, The Oklahoman reported on Friday.

Citing the United States Trademark and Patent Office, the newspaper said that the league filed for a trademark on Barons, Bison, Energy, Marshalls, Thunder and Wind.

"Barons" or "Marshalls" are the only ones I like. The rest sound more like WNBA team names.
