Name our OKC basketball team

[frenchy]

No offense for Seattle Sonics fans, this is just for fun.

If The team moves to OKC and changes its name, what would be your favorite name (please be serious) ?

Here is my choice

OKC Scorpions
Logo : something like this :

Home colors : FORD blue + dark red
Away colors : Dark red[/spoiler]

They've been around for over 40 years, my vote is to just keep the sonics name with no new logos.

Maybe a new color scheme and court though.

They've already said if they leave Seattle, they will leave the team history, colors and logo behind for a new team in Seattle.

So they are going to change their name and everything? Eh, not a bad idea i guess

cowboys (its out west)
indians (the state where most of the amercian indians ended up)
dawgies
THE HERD (think cattle ranch),
Mustangs (ford center),
criers (see explanation for indians, would give attention to plight of disappearance of american indian culture),
boomers,
930s "WKY, AM 930 in Oklahoma City, was the first radio station transmitting from West of the Mississippi River." http://okc.about.com/od/factsandinforma ... afacts.htm

I actually like to see big changes, always, that's why my favourite parts are offseasons, rookies, player trading and so on. It's really cool.

But my ideas.

Name: Oklahoma Bandits
Logo: Logo would be something like.. A basketball with a bandit's style hat and a B on it.
Colours: Something between Sepia and Yellow as main colour and Sepia as secondary, lines, gear and such. White from the back and the front.
Away colours: Same, but otherways, cyan as main and gear yellow etc. Black in front and back.

Would be with three straight lines from up to down, on front and on back. The colours would be: home - Cyan, Sepia/Yellow, Cyan and away - Sepia/Yellow, Cyan, Sepia/Yellow.

Tornados or Twisters would certainly be fitting.

That's not official yet, though it's supposedly on the table partly as a bargaining chip to get out of the lease and move to Oklahoma for the 2008/2009 season rather than playing two more seasons in Seattle. I wouldn't be surprised if it goes down that way though.
