With the Spurs coming off a loss, I will be highly, highly shocked if Seattle loses by anything less than 15 points. I would like the Sonics to be competitive until the end and lose on a buzzer beater, but I just can't see Seattle losing by anything but high double digits...
Anyone that roots for a Sonics win is fooling themselves. We should all, as sadistic as it may be, hope that Seattle loses (albeit competitively) to get the best chance at D Rose possible...

I just about had a heart attack when Luke chucked the ball towards the Spurs basket before time expired. It did not miss by much and if you watch the replay I think he realized what he did after he threw the ball because he watched it until he saw it missed. Can you imagine if he would have made that shot to tie the game? Great win though. I got done coaching my sons team just in time to listen to the last part of the 4th and sprinted inside with him to watch the last few plays. Man, I hope they find a way to keep the team in Seattle.
