"'In a perfect world I would have liked to see Clay Bennett leave, without the team at all,' said Steven Pyeatt, the co-founder of Save Our Sonics." While the door isn't quite closed yet -- there's one more lawsuit to go -- a late agreement between new owner Clay Bennett and the city seems to suggest that Seattle has sadly lost their NBA franchise to Oklahoma City. "The settlement calls for Bennett and his Professional Basketball Club LLC to pay as much as $75 million to the city in exchange for the immediate termination of the lease. The team's name and colors will be staying in Seattle."
