In case you don’t follow NBA basketball anymore (I’m not quite sure if
anybody in this region does nowadays) you missed out on a group of
Sonics fans making their voice heard at Saturday night’s Thunder vs.
Nuggets playoff game in Denver.
The loyal fans at Sonicsgate
made sure the Oklahoma City Thunder knew exactly where they originated
from as they sat directly behind their bench during last night’s game.
While the Thunder ultimately prevailed in a 97-94 victory to take a
seemingly insurmountable 3-0 series lead in their Western Conference
Quarterfinal matchup against Denver, the real story of the game was about
the few Sonics fans keeping the memory of their beloved franchise alive
and well.
The ESPN broadcast crew even mentioned the few Sonics loyalists on-
air.
