Kevin Calabro has been hired. So there's another stick in the eye for sonic fans. Now I'm hoping and praying for bill Walton as his partner.
How can it be a stick in the eye when we don't have a team??? KC has been doing national broadcasts since Stern and Clay Clay stole the Sonics. Seattle isn't getting an NBA team for at least another decade if not ever, so why not get a gig with the next closest market? KC Is the best NBA play by play guy IMHO. Absolutely great hire for the Blazers.
We currently don't have a team but we're still Sonics fans, that's the one thing they can't take from us. For many of us Sonics fans the Blazers were our hated rival. Great hire for the Blazers and wish nothing but the best for him. But for me it's like Steve Raible going to the 49ers.
Growing up as a Blazers fan, I never viewed the Sonics as the hated rival. That was, and always will be the Lakers. If not for the NBA stealing two game 6 from Portland vs the Lakers, Porland would have been to two more finals and would have surely beaten Indian for a 2nd title. F you David Stern for rigging the games.
