They voted for an arena and are getting their team back.
Again, if the Thunder weren't one of the best teams in the NBA the majority wouldn't care, and Seattle probably wouldn't have approved an Arena deal now.

Not true....exactly. Watch the YouTube video, Sonicsgate: Requiem for a team. David Stern and that ****sucker Clay Bennett STOLE the team. They lied to delay and came up with bogus excuses as to why the Sonics couldn't remain in Seattle. Watch the video. Howard Schultz (former owner and CEO of Starbucks) also was a part of this but he was probably just an idiot rather than a thief or liar. The city council also ****ed it up a bit. Watch the video
