After a week in which Oklahoma City's big league franchise lost all four of its games by an average margin of 16 points, this seemed like the perfect time to start a weekly column chronicling the inaugural season of Thunder basketball.

He came back with "Clark Matthews' Dirty Thunderwear". Eventually, we were able to get off that particularly bad Thunder pun by coming up with others. Among the options were:
