Sonics Team Intro - 1996 NBA Finals



How can the NBA say there isn't support for the team in Seattle? Are you kidding me? The crowd was so fired up and loud in there you couldn't even hear the PA announcer. Even the players couldn't hear their names being announced and just started running out onto the floor.

**UPDATE**
In recent article in Forbes magazine, Seattle was ranked behind Atlanta as the second most miserable sports city in America. The Emerald City has only one championship out of a collective 105 seasons from its professional sports teams, including recent postseason disappointments from the Seahawks and Mariners. To make the ranking even more depressing, Forbes gave extra "heartbreak points" to pro teams that left for other cities and if the Sonics do indeed depart for Oklahoma City, Seattle will overtake Atlanta and inherit the top spot.
