I'm a avid basketball fan from Seattle, Washington. I have found my passion in basketball and probably spend to much time following the NBA. The Hornets have became my team shortly after I started blogging on Swarm and Sting.
And yes, I was upset to see the Sonics move to Oklahoma but glad they're doing well. Im positive the NBA will return to the 206 one day.
