Thunder vs Grizzlies

Last night, Johnny and I attended an NBA pre-season game right here in Tulsa! The Oklahoma City Thunder took on the Memphis Grizzlies; I was so excited, because I love both teams.

 Both teams had their superstars on display for the first half- seeing athletes like Kevin Durant, Jeff Green, Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Rudy Gay, OJ Mayo, and Marc Gasol play was definitely the best part of the night.

The second half was just as action packed when the teams brought out rookie players. Memphis ended up winning 116-96; they had dominated the whole game, so it wasn't a big surprise. It was so fun to watch the game, even from our cheap seats! 

Our seats haha!
We're planning to attend more NBA games this year- they will probably all be Thunder games, but hopefully we'll be able to squeeze a Grizzlies game or a Dallas Mavericks game in there too! I love basketball season and can't wait for it to get rolling!
