They're Already Booing the Supes in Oklahoma

This news actually broke before P.J. Carlesimo was fired, but the honeymoon is officially over in Oklahoma City (hat tip to Bend it Like Bennett).

Reason #1 for the boobirds: the Supes' bigs have been fucking awful. I'm not just talking about the three-headed Swift/Petro/Sene monster here, I'm talking about Nick Collison and Chris Wilcox, who have regressed pathetically: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/teams/stats?team=okc.

Also, there's no reason why this team shouldn't start Russell Westbrook over Earl Watson immediately. No reason at all.

The plan...

Buy The Thunder back from OKC. Preferably at a discount after Bennett's ownership group needs liquidity fast with the investment crisis.

Make NBA commish David Stern grovel a little bit first what with all the revenue the league is losing not having a team in this market.
