This Seattle team was no fucking joke. So many dominant teams in the 90s forgotten because of the bulls

Stop over exaggerating. Nobody forgets about the super sonics because of the bulls. Yall Michael jordan way too much credit.

[@2centsand6senses]

@@realone7405Look at your profile pic and look at your comment. Only over exaggerating is fam. Malcom wouldn't leave a sissy petty comment, knowing exactly what point buddy was making but you did. "Stop it, get some help" - MJ (MJ took your comment personally and told me to write this)

Shawn K and Gary used to be big headaches. I remember watching these two. They were like gladiators on the court.

I'm glad they didn't say pause.

[@hothandquis941]

That isn’t their generation. Thats these mf nowadays

I would've appreciated one. The silence was DEAFENING as the interview hosts and every viewer has to work out what he just said and how'd he mean that? But I'm fine without it. Lol

As a point guard from Oakland myself, GP *WAS* the idol, all we ever wanted on the court was a dude who could go up like The Reignman

[@Ac0ustics0ul]

How does Seattle have a WNBA team w/ a space needle logo, but the Sonics don't exist?

[@kesenaememere8520]

Facts, it still doesn't make sense.

[@LynxStarAuto]

One of the worst ownership groups of recent times. Completely fucked a franchise, a city, and a community.

[@DLOOT11]

Starbucks who owned the Sonics sold them to some OKC businessmen. The end.

[@y2shuproblem]

Blame the ownership group at the time. Imagine if Steve Ballmer owned the Sonics instead of the Clippers.

[@tj-vv7fm]

Robbery that we still waiting

[@christianzuniga1580]

Shawn Kemp was a beast even when he got old he was still ballin

[@SkinnyJT_YT]

This is cool, to realize how much went on behind the scenes that we didn’t understand as kids growing up watching these industry kings play. I miss these moments in history. Part of the reason why I can’t become as consumed in sports anymore, it doesn’t seem real now a day.

[@patrickderocco296]

A goat duo. I lived on the east coast but knew that the Sonics were the real deal back in the 90's. Hope they come back in 2026 like they say

[@jayscott5387]

Kemp was my first favorite player in the NBA. Was rockin that super sonics #40 early. This is before I even started actually playing basketball 🏀. Then I saw KG#21 and had a new player to follow as I worked on my game as a child 🏀❣️

[@atthespeedoflife2150]

Kemp always had some cool swag after his dunks.

[@kpdiallo1111]

I met him when he was on Cleveland team such a nice guy down to earth very humble sugar hands talk to us like a normal person good dude!

[@chapsteronetime2000]

I was rite there in the heart of Seattles run both mariners and the glove n rain man!! Watched it all key arena and left listening to all the greatest music chains, nirvana, pearl, mother love bone etc of that era on my way home n shit!! Killer times I miss them memories 😢

I don't know why Shawn Kemp looks like he is a master at smoking ribs😂😂😂😂

[@souloshinobi7307]

Being a native of the NW this was a great time to be a fan of the NBA and this duo. Themboys were DAWGS. So mad the NBA gave that team to Oklahoma. Seattle needs a team again. So many hoopers out there killing it.

[@michaelromandel9022]

Payton is still one of my favourite players ever. In the 1990s for me it was him and Stockton and Iverson in terms of who I wanted to play like. They played basketball like Doug and Peter Forsberg played hockey, extremely skilled offensively yet very scrappy and played a physical game where they would fight for the ball and play defence right on top of people. Stockton is right that the game of basketball needs to be physical for it to be played properly in a competitive way and the NBA moving away from that has meant that in many ways college basketball is more pure basketball than the nba and is a better game

[@jasonlima6433]

You guys were a great team and fun to watch.
