Oklahoma City vs Oklahoma City in Oklahoma City

allen_06_sonics.jpgThe Sonics will play in their possible future home town tonight when they face the Oklahoma City/New Orleans Hornets in the brand new Ford Center.

Oh by the way, the brand new Ford Center may not be brand new enough for the NBA.

Let's say the Sonics come in the next couple of seasons. They spend a year or two bartering over arena plans. Spend a two or three years in construction. Suddenly it's 2013, and the Ford Center is 11 years old. Seattle's KeyArena, the bane of the NBA's existence, was renovated to appease the Sonics 11 years ago.

Seriously, NBA, what the f-bomb?
