[Seattle Times] 15 years after moving Sonics, now it’s the Thunder asking for publicly funded arena
(www.seattletimes.com)
Game analysis, highlights and everything else that is happening in the NBA.
Their ownership is straight-up garbage.
Howard Schultz asked for a $220 million arena in 2006 and was denied. When Clay bought the team a few months later and was denied his $500 million arena (Which would have been the most expensive at the time) he acted all surprised. So much for a "Good faith" effort.
The most expensive arena in the NBA at the busiest traffic intersection in the state of Washington, the I-405 S-curves down in Renton lol.
Absolute joke of a proposal.
It was definitely sabotage. Rep. Ross Hunter (House Finance Committee Chair) even stated about Clay Bennett's proposal:
“They made no significant effort to pass that bill, nothing”.
