Thunder's new court

[metro]

Saw this pic on newsok.com today. Glimpse of the new court:

looks like the one on the youtube video of NBA 2k9 will be accurate then...blue baseline with "Oklahoma City" and the sides of the lane trimmed in yellow if I recall correctly...should look pretty sharp.

I'm pumped!

The sports facilities oversight board reported on Tuesday the contractor that supplied the floor had mistakenly painted the 3 point line in the wrong place (NCAA specs) - they had to bring in people to sand down, repaint and refinish the line in the correct place - no extra cost to the city. Tom Anderson said it would be fixed by tip off - looks like it was.

I noticed a faint line just below the 3-point line. Figured it was a stripe that could be uncovered for college or something. Interesting.

I thought the court looked good.

You mean you were at the game, even though you protested the movement to get the team here?

Speaking of the new court, what was going on with the floor under the basket in the Boston game? Was the ice melting?
