Strange coincidence or am I ignorant at some point..The Seattle SuperSonics' first uniforms had "Sonics" displayed in a font that was also used by the Cincinnati Royals (now the Sacramento Kings).
Will there be a division realignment coming?
Any Seattle-based team can use the Supersonics name. They fought to keep it. The franchise had to change its name when it moved to OKC.

The Maloofs couldn't afford to run an NBA franchise for YEARS. Cash-poor owners + small market = trouble.
Here is a chilling thought:
Have any of you bought a LHM Toyota lately?
I'd rather see:
Pacific-
Lakers
Clippers
Kings/Sonics
Blazers
Warriors
Northwest- (obviously need a new designation)
Jazz
Suns
Nuggets
Timberwolves
Grizzlies
Southwest- (Texas)
Hornets/Pelicans
OKC
Rockets
Mavericks
Spurs
Here's the best one. Hands down.
Northwest
Denver Nuggets
Milwaukee Bucks
Minnesota Timberwolves
Oklahoma City Thunder
Utah Jazz
