I found an entire site devoted to selling Thunder tickets, don't know what to think about this when I know good fans were shut out entirely.

Could be someone for whom economic times are no longer as good. However, when the Hornets were here, someone who had a really low number bought all ten seats behind me and sold them on Stubhub every single game.

They are selling them for all NBA teams at home if you click those links on the left side of the page. They just have individual web sections for each team.

That's just a typical ticket broker.

By the way, you can still get single game tickets for most Thunder home games at ticketmaster.com

They sure do have a lot of tickets, however, including courtside seats. It is annoying that people didn't get season tickets and these guys get to make a profit out of not going to the games.

It's pretty much criminal. But this is the age of greed.

For sure:) Humans are inherently greedy, but I'm thinking of the times when you had to camp out to get the good tickets, and the true fans got the pick of the litter, compared to now when the people with the most money or the inside scoop get the good tickets. Guess it has to be that way when you're paying the multi-million dollar salaries. Before I start sounding anti I'll stop heh.

Most event tickets are still this way. I can see people problem with scalping Thunder tickets because people originally missed out because of the lottery system. But just about every other event I have no problem with scalpers because the "true fans" did have the first opporitunity to buy them they mostly weren't logged in and ready to hit the buy button when they went on sale 9 AM saturday morning.
