If you ever get a chance to go to one of the games, do go. The wife and I have season tickets and I hate to admit it, but we have more fun there than with our season tickets for the OU games. As a long time Laker fan (still am) I too was shocked by the performance of the Thunder. That being said, the Thunder are a class act from top to bottom. I am really getting tired of my Lakers shenanigans, from Ron Artest to Bynum to the last idiot to get booted from the game.
Next year plan a weekend around a game, it's a heck of a good time.
