"deceitfully spinning?" Not at all.
SEATTLE -- Former SuperSonics owner Howard Schultz has added a third claim to a lawsuit that seeks to void the team's 2006 sale to new owners who are planning to move the Sonics to Oklahoma City.
The Starbucks Corp. chairman has amended his federal court lawsuit to allege that Clay Bennett and his Oklahoma-based partners breached their contract with Schultz and other Sonics owners by not making a realistic and full effort to find a new arena in Western Washington before applying to move the team.

I also stated I boycotted Starbucks over the whole debacle. And hold no umbrage towards the nice people of Oklahoma, I visit the city frequently, doing IT work at Tinker. My favorite watering hole is- The Landing Zone in Midwest City.
if Seattle does get a Sonics franchise, it would be a fun rivalry, most likely even a stronger one than the Seattle-Portland rivalry.
