Ending a 9-0 at-home playoff streak for the Thunder, the Heat started out strong and held on for a 100-96 victory in last night’s game.

Despite a rocky start, the Thunder came up with a big win Tuesday night, taking game 1 in a 105-94 victory over the Heat.

Tonight could very well make history for the thriving metropolis known as Oklahoma City. The energetic young Thunder basketball team has a chance to land a spot in the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise history. But first they have to get past the veteran Spurs, a team whose 20-game winning streak the Thunder broke last week on the Spurs’ home court.

Experts say that if you can hear thunder, you're near enough to the storm to be struck by lightning. A more precise rule of thumb, suggested by the National Weather Service, is the "30-30 Rule."
