Shawn Kemp hosted Seattle party celebrating Thunder missing playoffs

The Oklahoma City Thunder moved to their new home from Seattle seven years ago, and the transition appears to have gone smoothly. The team sells out most of its home games and made the playoffs for five straight years before this season. But, make no mistake, former fans of the Sonics are still not over losing their team.

That includes Shawn Kemp, who co-hosted a party on Thursday to celebrate the Thunder falling just short of the playoffs. Kemp, who played for the Seattle Sonics from 1989 to 1997, hung out with salty Seattle fans at Neumos on Capitol Hill.
