    Thunder could be moving to a city near you!

    OKC Thunder is exploring into possible moving to NEW JERSEY once the Nets move to Brookly. Here the links

    lol, they're not going anywhere. They have corporate sponsorship from three local energy companies and are a cash cow in this market. Maybe in the future they'll move to a larger market but it makes no sense right now. Especially with the lease they have with the City of OKC for 9 years to play in the Ford Center.

    I dont think the NBA would approve a team from the west in NJ.

    The owners of the Thunder are from Oklahoma, and bought the team specifically so they could move them to OKC.
