But you better be quick! Only 5000 of them gems! Would've only been better if the jersey on it was Gary Payton's. Who doesn't remember this OKC Thunder legend! ;D
Remember when they had the 1979 championship parade in downtown Oklahoma City and everybody turned out to cheer Fred Brown, Lenny Wilkins and the rest of the team? Man, that was great. The toughest time to be an OKC Thunder fan was in 1994 when they lost in the opening round to Denver. I’ll never forget Dikembe Mutombo clutching the basketball on the Ford Arena floor. Haunts me to this day.
The off the court ativities of the team is what I will never forget. I remember when Sam Perkins would DJ for a few hours during the season at the local OKC hip hop station. Hersey Hawkins and Detlef Schrempf were always big on OKC community service. And lets not forget all of the great work done by "Mr. Thunder" himself, Nate McMillan. I still remember when his mom flew on an airplane for the first time to see his retirement ceremony in Ford Center.

Yikes.

My favorite Thunder of all time had to be the X-Man. Maybe the Rainman. I always like the whole Thunder and Rain thing...
You did hear that we're raising GP's jersey to the rafters Wednesday night? David Stern is going to be on-hand for the unveiling.
