Funny that two of the OKC bloggers don't mention the most significant of all key moves under "what significant moves were made during the offseason?"
Hey guys, your funny team moved!!!
But at least they have some humor (excerpt):
Key Losses: 40 years of history, Squatch
Key Additions: Ugly uniforms
Odenied: If you're given lemmings—make lemming-ade (Bow4Meow)
How the heck did I do that?

It would be nice to have links
to other team sites blazer predictions. I always enjoy a different teams perspective on our team.
"The next day in practice, if you sweat, it's going to come out of your pores, regardless. If you ask any coach around the league how many times they have smelled liquor on a player . . . As long as that player is showing up on time, doing the drills and running, that's part of it. But there have been times, yeah. Yeah, you probably smelled liquor on me. But it's not like I'm at practice drunk. I'm totally focused."

Canis HoopusDeson't care for us
Harsh prediction from them:
Wrapping this thing up, the Wolves are going to be an improved team. Without taking into consideration Miller and Love, they are probably already a 27-30 win team based on last year’s numbers. I think that these two players will bring enough game on the offensive end to allow the Wolves to increase their offensive efficiency enough to pick up an additional 6 games. I think they will finish 3rd in the division behind Utah (60-22) and Portland (42-40). And no, I don’t think this will be Portland’s year to shine. Portland is introducing three 1st year players into the lineup and one of them just had his knee put back together. Their best player can’t make it through a season and their starting 3 is out until after the New Year. Steve Blake is also their starting point. Portland still has a ton of question marks and I don’t think they will finish that far ahead of the Wolves.
Plus it appears they truly think they will be better than the Nuggets?
Word.
Wow, that was weird
