Sacramento Supersonics? Seattle Kings?

I am glad to have some version of the Supersonics back in Seattle I guess, but I have very mixed emotions about this. I should be happy I suppose but I am not so sure. Sacarmento is a team the Supersonics used to play. They are not the Supersonics. Not really excited that Seattle is taking Sacramento's team. When Oklahoma successfully took the Supersonics away from Seattle, that was a huge loss in my mind. The Supersonics were the first professional team I was a fan of as I cheered for them as we listened on the AM radio on car trips when I was a kid. Not that happy that Seattle is doing that to another city. I know, professional sports is a business, but it still kinda sucks.
Also, the NBA is not the same thing as it was when I was a diehard Sonics fan. Hmm. I will have to see how I feel about this over the long haul.
These are some of the Supersonics I remember rooting for:
