thunder, thunder, thunder, thundercats ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
i wonder who is gona be the mascot

They need to make the mascot this guy


Or Panthro would be pretty cool for a mascot too (he was always my favorite)


Or if they made their colors black and red and their logo look like this, how cool would that be


And the cheerleaders could all dress like this


I'm having way too much fun thinking about this.

I think any name following Oklahoma City is going to sound like an arena football team.

They should have named them the Oklahoma City Outlaws

and had the mascot be a Yosemite Sam looking cowboy with a big mustache that waves around pistols and starts fights with other mascots

They blew it

As a season ticket holder since In was 15 (I'm 43 now) for Oklahoma Sooners football :D. We have seen 43 conference championships and 7 national championships. Now as a season ticket holder for the OKC Thunder we are ecstatic!  :o I can see and hear it now as the ligtning strikes and the THUNDER rolls to AC/DC thunderstruck! LOOK OUT NBA ! There is a major severe THUNDER storm moving into the area. TAKE SHELTER NOW! ;D

This name is only slightly worse than:

Oklahoma City Corn Holes
Oklahoma City Fart Boxes
Oklahoma City Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. Bags
&
Oklahoma City Thunder Thighs

At least name them after something that OKC can be proud of like the OKC Flaming Lips.  Wayne Coyne could be the mascot and crowd surf in a giant bubble during games like he does in concert.

I don't know if OKC Thunder will ever sound right to me or anyone else for that matter. But I could be wrong.

Miami Heat is a solid name that doesn't end in an "s", although I share the same preference myself.

Oklahoma City Thunder .... jeez it's a mouthful isn't it? That's the real problem.

I thought they were going away from names that showed the region in bad light. Like hurricanes and the sort, is Thunder really a step up?

Orlando Magic is ok.  New Orleans Jazz was cool too before they moved to Utah.  Why did they even keep that their nickname?  Which is worse, that or the Lakers?
