From a metro population to number of pro sports teams ratio, it would be an easier decision to go to Tulsa than OKC, even with a better arena in OKC.

Plus either city it probably only happens if a local ownership group wanted to bring one in, in OKC most of the potential owners are probably already tied into the Thunder, and bringing in another team risks both being viable.
