Kevin Durant played in the last Seattle SuperSonics game, a bittersweet moment when he had the finest game of his rookie season with 42 points, 13 rebounds and six assists but called the night "sad."
It's been 10 years now since the Sonics left Seattle and took the supernova that Durant was to become and the lottery pick that turned into Russell Westbrook with them. It's been a decade of empty promises, near misses and political infighting both in Seattle and the NBA itself that have kept a team away.
"It was very devastating how we up and left in the middle of the night," Durant said.
