OKLAHOMA CITY -- The NBA officially handed over the Seattle franchise to Oklahoma City about two months ago, and three trucks arrived downtown at headquarters on Friday.

The first thing to roll off the truck was a basketball with the NBA logo.

"It was a nice touch, wasn't it?" said Pete Winemiller, a team vice president for guest relations who helped oversee the move.

Winemiller said the move from Seattle to Oklahoma City will involve about 60 truckloads and be done by the end of September.

He said 10,000 pounds of equipment and furniture were in the Friday load. The first items offloaded were five office chairs and a 50-inch flat-screen television after the nearly 2,000-mile trip.
