The fans of the Oklahoma City Thunder have laid down a challenge that Golden State Warriors fans have to respond to.
The 2016 Western Conference Finals headed to Oklahoma tied at one game apiece; it returns with the Thunder up 3-1 after the lively OKC crowd helped will their team to victory.
So if we, Warriors fans, truly want to prove that we're the best fans in the league and Oracle Arena the hardest place for a visiting team to play, tonight is the night to do so. The Warriors haven't been in a must-win situation at home in some time, but the fans actually have a chance to help the team stay alive tonight.
Let's hope the fans show up tonight to give this team a lift, figuratively and literally (when necessary). I have to believe the team will show up with their backs against the wall regardless.
We Believe once again.
