Charles Barkley Stands Up For The Seattle Supersonics’ NBA History (Video)


It’s a pet peeve of mine whenever sports reporters use stats from teams that don’t exist anymore following a name change & relocation to an entirely different city. The Tennessee Titans are no longer the Houston Oilers. The Miami Seahawks are NOT the Seattle Seahawks nor the Indianapolis Colts. Most importantly the NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder franchise are NOT the Seattle Supersonics. You get what I’m saying here? It annoys the hell out me when sports analysts don’t fully realize that when a franchise changes their name AND city it becomes an entirely new franchise. You have to keep it in that proper perspective & report it accurately. Charles Barkley isn’t the only one that feels that way & I have to agree with him.
