Big Oklahoma News
We in Oklahoma are excited that a major sports franchise is coming to Oklahoma City. The former Seattle Supersonics are moving to OKC. I have suggested that they be called the "OKC Twisters" with colors of black, white, and silver, similar to the colors of various tornadoes which frequent our state. I think the 5 players could be introduced using the power ratings for twisters: EF-1 to EF-5. I can see concessions with twister straws, twister games, a DVD of "Twister" the movie, etc.

This introduction of a major basketball team should increase the interest in basketball at the state universities. I think having a former Big 12 player on the team is a big plus. Kevin Durant is a developing star for the team.

This also should enhance the development of the OKC bricktown area. With the high price of gas it might be an obstacle to traveling 200 miles to see a professional game.
