The Oklahoma City Thunder were one of the most exciting teams to watch in the NBA a year ago. The Bricktown ballers rattled off 68 wins in the regular season, with a historic point differential, the best-ever cross-conference record in NBA history and home court advantage throughout the Thunder’s eventual Championship run.
After hoisting the team’s first Larry O’Brien trophy, the NBA has finally made the decision to spotlight the Thunder with its showcase dates on Opening Night, Christmas and MLK Day and a slew of other National TV dates.
Many believe the Oklahoma City Thunder should have been showcased a year ago on the biggest stage the league had to offer, but better late than never.
As the League continues to trickle out its schedule, the Thunder already have a handful of National TV dates on the docket. Thursday’s announcement of the entire regular season schedule should fetch Oklahoma City a high number of National TV games.
This upcoming season for the NBA starts a new wave of TV deals that forces fans to pony up for more streaming services to enjoy every game of the Thunder’s title defense season.
