Oklahoma Can Have the Team, But We Keep the Trophies

Like the large-scale divorce it is, Seattle and Oklahoma City have divvied up the personal artifacts and furniture once associated with the Seattle Supersonics. We get to keep the trophies, championship banners and retired jerseys--which will be kept and shown at the MOHAI. Oklahoma City and the Thunder (or whatever the team will be called) has been awarded some CDs, a flat screen TV, a basketball inflater, and a replay monitor. For once in this nasty divorce, it sounds like we actually got the better deal...we'll take small victories.

Thunder, eh? And here I thought it was the Oklahoma City Blunder.

As I noted elsewhere, there is a fair amount of useful stuff the erstwhile Sonics are taking that leaves the Storm screwed with expenses they probably weren't anticipating. If OKC wanted a basketball team so bad you'd think they could have at least thrown in a ball inflater.
