Proving once again that Garfield grads are smarter than their private school counterparts, Marcelus Kemp today announced he'll stay in school for a year and improve his game, while Spencer Hawes announced he'll enter the draft and become the Robert Swift of 2007.
Seattle Prep's Hawes Goes to NBA, Garfield's Kemp Doesn't
Sonics Boot Head Coach Hill, GM Sund
Say this for new Sonics owner Clay Bennett--he knows shitty basketball when he sees it. And he's replacing the men most responsible for bringing it to you, GM Rick Sund and coach Bob Hill.
Sonics Try New Personnel and New Ads
The Sonics gave up on Rick Brunson, their all-time worst free-agent signing. This offseason, they gave Brunson--who had a foot injury--a guaranteed $1 million contract. Brunson's foot injury never healed. He played four games. You do the math.
Sonics to Taxpayers: Um...can you guys give us a point guard, too?
Last night, the Sonics played a mediocre team, the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets. The mediocre team lost their only two point guards to injury. Yet the Sonics still lost.
Free Throws Are Not Our Friends
On consecutive nights, Seattle basketball teams got stymied by events at the free throw line. On Sunday night, the Husky men lost a heartbreaker to Stanford after Stanford's Chris Hernandez hit three free throws to tie the game and send it into overtime.
Big PFFLLTTT to Sonics Beat Writers
Ray Allen got in a fight with Orlando's Keyon Dooling during last night's Sonics win. The fight started on the wing, at the three-point arc, but Allen and Dooling ended up wrestling each other on top of two fans sitting courtside.
Sonics Coach Wants Reinforcements
Sonics coach Bob Weiss thinks he's finally figured out what's wrong with his 13-17 team--they lack a shot-blocker.
Sonics' Roster Taking Shape
Yes, Pat Robertson's PR guy has had a busy couple of days, but so has Sonics general manager Rick Sund.
Sonics Steady The Ship
After ending an ugly six-game losing streak with a win over the lowly New Orleans Hornets on Friday, the Sonics posted an impressive 15-point victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday afternoon.
Seattle Center-less
The Supersonics are hot. Prior to last nights victory against New Orleans, the Sonics beat the Houston Rockets in Houston, largely by shutting down superstar Tracy McGrady. But the Rockets' center Yao Ming scored 30 points and this highlights the Sonics biggest problem - the Sonics center-less.
