Ok, that's a bit melodramatic. The Sonics will probably do just fine in Oklahoma. But they need to be saved for Seattle.
The Sonics are being threatened because the owner wants a new arena. And the voters & government don't want to build a new arena. Well, with the economy now going in the tank, governments are looking for ways to stimulate the economy.
See where I'm going here? A new basketball arena would be a big stimulus. If the state needs to dump a bunch of money into the economy anyway, why not dump it into an arena? It'd be better than spending it on more highways, although probably not as good as spending it on more new trains.
