The NBA has given the green light for the move to Oklahoma. Paul Allen and Mark Cuban are the only owners to vote against the move. The only owners that care about these fans and the city of Seattle in the NBA. If Paul Allen voted for the move he would have been crucified up here in Seattle...Now, Sonic Fans can keep their hopes up for the lawsuits to be successful.

Will Brinson from the FanHouse Blog made a great point:
"
This is a pretty aggressive move by the NBA owners, but entirely shocking. Allowing Clay
Bennett to truck the Sonics out of Seattle gives them ridiculous precedent (of the non-legal
variety right now) to demand new facilities and upgrades for other teams in various cities
simply by threatening relocation."
