Ratings and reviews

All NBA fans should view. Nothing can be changed now, but fans should be made aware of the true story of why the Sonics are dead and so they understand just how fragile a city's hold on their team is. Especially if the commissioner wants the move.

Its sad the way they lied about their plans of not relocated the team!!! OKC What Goes Around Comes Around Remember That

So so great..miss the Sonics...Great special...nba screwed Seattle.....
