The OKC Thunder are officially slated to take part in their 11 Christmas exhibition in franchise history. In the NBA, this is the biggest day of the regular season from a viewership standpoint. Generally speaking, Christmas is when the league showcases its best teams and brightest stars for a full day of action-packed showdowns. However, the fact that the Thunder will be hitting the road for their already less-than-exhilarating opponent makes this situation all the more disappointing. This is far from the first time the NBA has made decisions that, to many, have undervalued and disrespected the Thunder.
