[defdave]

Props to OKC for going major league. I'm in Springfield, MO and looking forward to taking the 4 hour drive to see an NBA event after all these years.

[ad287]

If we ever get a real coach, we'll be a contender. If we had a guy like Avery Johnson, I guarantee he could turn us into a contender with our young talent and the draft picks/free agents/trades that could happen. This Brooks guy is gonna ruin us.

[metrogorby]

This franchise is following a 2 year rookie to victory.Kevin deserves to be in a championship team

[1234455566778899]

i dont even know if they'll build that sky scraper anymore, the way gas prices went down and devon energy hasnt been gettin as much money they prob wont build it. i hope they do though, and finish up the ford center.

[dharper26]

They are still building Devon tower but i think it is incredibly stupid to put it in a video about the Thunder. As well as pictures of the Sonics.

[Mikeof7]

At the time, the video really was about OKC becoming big league. Sonics footage and pics were the only one available...The team didn't even have a name or colors when the video was made.

[dharper26]

I understand that but the video is still in bad taste if you are from Seattle. This is the type of thing Oklahomans want to avoid. We don't want to be seen as jerks that stole a team. We are good people.

[Mikeof7]

Doesn't matter what we say, we'll always be regarded as thieves by Seattlite's, even as their legislators kill hope for a franchise again. A video w/no references to the Sonics is in bad taste to those in Seattle. In fact, there are just as many references to the Spurs. While the video is definitely outdated, it still filled the gap, at the time, for most of us awaiting inaugural season. I'll replace it, eventually. We are not only good people, we are an excited and proud people.

[kklol7]

Actually most Seattle fans don't blame the people of OKC, they blame the people that allowed the team to be stolen from them.

The only people that really piss of the real SuperSonics fans are the ones who talk as if Seattle deserved it.

[Mikeof7]

Agreed. Real Supersonics fans are the ones I do feel bad for...they definitely didn't deserve it.

[diggyba]

does anyone know when we are getting our mascot??

[newyorkbaseballgiant]

okc thunder have good jerseys

[Xbox360NXE]

they look kinda like old school thats whats cool

[TEXASlonghorns25]

r u serious?

[NetsFan2k]

you gotta give the fact that the the fan support is incomparable to any other NBA franchise. other than that, the col

[ndnredman]

so what's your excuse for being a punk bitch? yeah keep telling your bitch ass that. 405 recognise

[RockyBalboa211]

lol lets laugh at them!! Go Spurs Go!!

[KroMcLovinFaSho]

what do you really expect from a team that starts johan petro at center?

[Mikeof7]

@KroMcLovinFaSho 50 wins the following year.

[ivanfry2]

yall bitches can talk about basketball but u cant say shit about oklahomas football team faghots

[nateoak10]

god there awfull

[Mikeof7]

@nateoak10 ...not really, just young.

[guitarlover122]

we all knew going into this it was going to be a bad first season, next season will be a lil better, then after that we'll be decent..it happened with the hornets why cant it happen to this team..itll take a while but we will get good..reason why clippers suck is because la already has lakers..so its pretty clear the good talent went to lakers.. any how we just need patience and well see in 3-4 seasons we will be kicking ass and taking names.

[Mikeof7]

@guitarlover122

or one season.

[mjm2366]

It doesn't matter. This team sucks balls, just like Clay Bennett.

[Mikeof7]

@mjm2366

So...Clay doesn't really suck?

[testchimp23]

God, not more AC/DC. Enough already!

[signuputub]

ac/dc is awsome!

[testchimp23]

AC/DC is fine with me, but it's the same song for every OKC Thunder video. Kind of like when the only Eagles song you hear on the radio is Hotel California. It gets old.

[mangoshooter]

what is the name of the first music track in this music video?

[Mikeof7]

Thunderstruck

then Battle Without Honor

[ATAVISMOdemoniaco]

thunderstruck by ac/dc

[ad287]

Keep dreamin douchebag, take a good look at what the Hornets look like right now, becuz the Thunder will be just as good or better within two years. They're actually coming to OKC in better shape than the Hornets were when they got here. A hell of a nucleus to build around, alot of talent, and of course, the best fans in the NBA. These guys will be treated like Gods and they'll be playing in the loudest arena in the league..Ford Center baby, it's no joke, get your popcorn ready.

[verchronic]

WHOA take it easy... im a thunder fan and all but the hornets were in much better shape coming in considering they had CP3 who is now the best pg in the league...but i appreciate the enthusiasm!

[alabasterhills]

Sorry to disappoint you...but so far there have been only three NBA teams which have sold out their season tickets, the Lakers, the Celtics and the Thunder. Looks like you lose there too.

[8ballsix27]

wtf with the old guy and the two chicks at 1:44

[Mikeof7]

Local hardcore OKC fan/attorney/blogger with two Honeybees (Hornets Dance Team)...and is the source for several pics.

[enn8788]

fuck the haters... GO THUNDER!!!

[hellchild5]

o ya thunder is soooo kool. i hope they dont come to my city and make noise from the sky but still not actually do anything, just make noise. honestly thunder is like a WNBA name

[bmandaman10]

OKC thunder is badass sweet name sweet jerseys and a PRO TEAM IN OKLAHOMA!!!!

[moozoopals]

WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!!!

[ballin4soup]

fuck all yall "thunder" is an awesome name.

[bmandaman10]

yea thunder is a badass name

[kylerev07]

hahah most retarded name in NBA sounbds like my little cousins elemetary leagues name or somthing on the cartoon network. I hope Durant dose well I hope thunder eats dust for a few years cuz thats what they get!

[shawn863]

I know they could have came up with a better name

[Jdublive20]

yea okc thunder lmao what was the nba think my lil sis could come up wit a better name.

[bigt7070]

Your mom liked it...

[Mikeof7]

@kylerev07

Gold dust, that is.

[nisimgarame123]

seattle supersonics forever!!

[penntaker]

Desmond Mason will be a fan favorite here. He's a former OSU Cowboy. They love DMase in OKC.

[okcitythunder]

oklahomacitythunderforum(dot com)

[SSJDave07]

Just curious, but why does this video have Spurs clips in it?

[Mikeof7]

No Thunder clips, yet.

Seems as though the Thunder want to use the Spurs model for rebuilding the franchise...so thought it appropriate, if it had to be from another NBA team.

[thebig1]

This is great for the NBA to have another team in the south. Fans and people up north think they are entitled to a team even if they DON'T SUPPORT IT AND REFUSE TO BUILD AN ARENA FOR IT. Oklahoma City is pumped to have the NBA and has already sold 13,000 season tickets. The ford center will be packed every night and will be loud. Couldn't say that about the old Key Arena and fans in Seattle. The fans up in Seattle need only blame themselves NOT CLAY BENNENT for losing your team!!!

[bmandaman10]

hell yea man

[jimhack3]

I see that The OKC Thunder is starting off great. With major OKC screen-printers, "Reflective Edge" out of in OKC, the OKC Thunder people choose a screen-printer here in Denver, Colorado to print their shirts. Laughable, but that's Oklahoma!

[1loren1]

YEAH

Oklahoma City THUNDER!!!

[ctiger69]

Really LAME!!! Almost every professional team has been playing the thunderstruck song.

Please come up with something original b/c this is lame.

[Mikeof7]

@ctiger69

Ours is the only one that means jack.

[SpursOn3]

Go Thunder!!!

[PammyG]

Woot! Thunder! I'm too excited now ...

[fpbass]

Go Thunder!!!!!!

[itsoundzgood]

I like the name, its just that they need a different logo and colors.

[riotito1976]

This team will eat some dust and some more for the next 5 season. I'm sorry but it is what it is. The North west is one tough division right now and so is the West. Goodluck Thunder. You'll definitely need some.

[Mikeof7]

@riotito1976

Again, gold dust, it is.

[viewtifulLee]

its ok but it looks like a D league jersey...seriously

[commerceskate]

really? i havent seen the jerseys yet. at 1:55 - what was a nice ass basketball stadium doing in oklahoma city anyways? ha

[onekrazydude076]

they haven't even unveiled the jerseys yet. the jerseys u saw were the ones they used @ the Orlando summer league. they're supposed to unveil the new jerseys later this month

[Mikeof7]

@viewtifulLee

Get used to it.

[lowflyinsh]

I still don't like the name, but it's growing on me the more I'm exposed to it.

Awesome video, I love the animations adding the tower to the OKC skyline and the winds changing the Ford Center. Great Job!

[BelligerentSwami]

It doesn't really matter what people think about the name right now, it will fit in nicely eventually. I remember when Washington changed its name to the Wizards, and lots of people that that was lame.

However, I will admit that the Bobcats have a stupid name and mascot. I have nothing against the team, but seriously, the Bobcats?  Anyway, thats off the subject...

[boutitbenza699]

i'm from the other side of the TX, OK border and feel happen for our fellow big XII'ers up north getting an NBA team, maybe you might get an NFL team next, and maybe an MLB and NHL team too.

[boutitbenza699]

i meant happy, not happen, made an typo. but i fell happy for the OKC area.

[OKCThunderfan88]

Nicely done sir. Once the games heat up, you should make a more videos about the franchise

[Mikeof7]

Thank you.

Definitely in the plans...different songs, etc.

Probably tweak/finish this video with some colors (probably not all) and photos. Not sure if it'll include the logo...maybe my own version, or someone else's.

[ammofan]

logo has been released....check out my new video to see it!

oh and great video by the way!!!!!!

[brdman3690]

thunder is so generic

[JerZkyd]

they will probably be my favorite team, but i do feel sorry 4 th e sonics. however they will return in the future. cant wait to see the new jerseys today

[brdman3690]

there won't be a new sonics because they would still have to build a new arena. i don't even want a new one. it's not the same

[JerZkyd]

i know what your saying. i look forward to seeing a new team but i will miss the sonics

[plmccordj]

Stealing the Sonics? Come on! It has been no secret that an arena was needed and previous ownership threatened to move them. Seattle residence response? I-91! If you want to be mad at someone be mad at yourselves.  The deadline past nearly a year ago and there are still no inititiatives to get a new arena.

[Devdude97]

Sweet Video! Very nice Mike! Can't wait for our team to arrive..

'OKC Thunder! You've Been ThunderStruck!"

Yeah!

[michaelluetk]

Man cant wait to see them play in the city that actually wants them....OKC all the way man! Awesome video! GO THUNDER

[MrKentJones]

nice job stealing the sonics.

[bobert59]

Nice job letting us. =]

[Mikeof7]

@MrKentJones

Thanks. Found'em in an orphanage.

[DigitalOberon]

Very nice.

[mount456stro]

I tell you these are the coolest videos....I cant wait until they get there Thunder jerseys on and they have another video with there new jerseys

GO THUNDER
