    OKC Twisters. Colors would be brown and something.

    and Bennett wants to keep all the team history behind in Seattle for another franchise to take like the Browns did in the NFL.

    For Sonics fans and the Durant family, I think Trail of Tears (or maybe the Tearblazers) might be appropriate.

    I was going to post that too.

    It's not funny and very funny at the same time. Especially because "Bombers" is so appropriate for a basketball team.


    In a seriousness, they could call them the Oklahoma City Dusters, which alludes to the Dustbowl of the 1930's. Sounds silly, but every new nickname does at first.

    OKC Thieving Bastages.

    Then 3 years from now, the Grizzlies come back to the Pacific Northwest and are renamed the new Seattle Supersonics.
