It'll be interesting to see where Seattle (or Oklahoma City) and Portland are at in five years. Actually, I take that back. I can already tell you that the Trail Blazers will have an NBA title and the SuperSonics will still be trying to reach the playoffs.
Why? Kevin Pritchard > Sam Presti and it's not even close.

The 10-man rotation, starring something that will fail
Ball Don't Lie —
A look around the league and the web that covers it.
It's also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren't
always listed in order of importance. That's for you, dear reader, to figure
out. C: Empty the Bench. Andrew Thell with a revelation about Al Jefferson's
defense at a certain position that both statistics and observances back
up. Once again, Kevin McHale got the best player and the most cap room
in this deal, and he still screwed it up. PF: BrewHoop. The Joe Alexander Robot hits Milwaukee's Summerfest. SF:
What Would Oakley Do. I'm not sure I would enjoy this post if it

Sonics Draft: It's all just OK(C)
assistbythemitten.com 6/27/2008 — I couldn't help but notice the background image read nothing of the city in which Russell Westbrook may be playing his next two seasons. But there stood the fourth overall pick of the Seattle SuperSonics in this year's NBA draft, shaking hands with the hated David Stern, mere minutes after the city of Seattle and the Sonics wrapped up final arguments in their federal court lease dispute case.
NBA DRAFT GRADING A JOKE;
community.foxsports.com 7/1/2008 — I find it comical to have someone grading the NBA Draft who just hands out A’s
and B’s if fear of rubbing someone the wrong way. If you are going to be scared
to criticize, then you shouldn’t be in this job.
I am a huge fan of Seattle GM Sam ...

So Clay Bennett , for $45 million now and possibly another $30 million down the road, gets to move his NBA team to the relative backwater that is Oklahoma City next season , thanks to a settlement agreed upon with Seattle mayor Greg Nickels just before the judge’s decision in the legal battle between the sides was supposed to be handed down.

Donnie Walsh selected Danilo Gallinari at No. 6 in the NBA draft Thursday night. Not Derrick Rose. Not Michael Beasley. Not OJ Mayo. Not Russell Westbrook. Not Kevin Love. Not Eric Gordon. Not Joe Alexander. Not DJ Augustin. Not Jerryd Bayless. Not Brandon Rush. Get over it!
