What happens now with WNBA team Seattle Storm? 

Post#1 » by raptor21_85 » Sat Jul 5, 2008 6:39 pm

After Sonics moving to OKC, what happens to this team? Do they have to move too?? I mean, does Seattle people want this team out too?

btw, the Seattle Storm is one of the best teams in that league, they have stars Lauren Jackson and Sue Bird

Bennett does not own the Storm. They're staying in Seattle.

well, I make this thread in part because i read that a few fans wrote in another board that they want to get rid of anything related to the NBA and that'd include WNBA (because both are part of a whole organization - here I have a doubt)

Yeah, that would have made it a nightmare.

Bennett sold the team to some local interests in Seattle.

If you're a fan of the game, it's not that difficult to appreciate a WNBA game. Once you learn some names and faces, it gets more interesting. That's with any sport really.
