WE’RE STILL IN THE UPPER 70S ON THE NEAR VIEW, BUT THE FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES HAVE VENTURED NOW ABOVE 80 FOR THE HEAT INDEX FEELS LIKE 82 IN SHAWNEE A GOOD BIT OF SOUTH WIND MAYBE SAVES US A LITTLE BIT FROM THE WORST OF THE HEAT. IT’S 10 TO 22 RIGHT NOW FOR THE WIND. THAT SUSTAINED WIND. AND THEN I THINK IT’S LIKE 20 TO 25 THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. SO WE’LL STILL GET HOT, BUT THE WIND WILL BE HELPFUL. I HAVE US IN THE LOWER 90S. I HAVE HEAT INDEX VALUES NEAR 100. SO THE WIND IS HELPFUL. STILL HOT. GOT TO TALK ABOUT TOMORROW. TOMORROW’S A BIG DAY WITH GAME SEVEN OF THE NBA FINALS.

THIS HAPPENED NEAR 10TH AND MACARTHUR AROUND 320 THIS MORNING. HE TRIED GETTING INTO THAT CLUB. THAT’S WHEN POLICE SAY SECURITY RECOGNIZED HIM. THERE WAS SOME SORT OF ARGUMENT. SECURITY PEPPER SPRAYED HIM AND THE SUSPECT ALLEGEDLY PULLED OUT A GUN AND STARTED SHOOTING AT SECURITY GUARDS. SECURITY GUARDS SHOT BACK AND THE SUSPECT DROVE AWAY. THE SUSPECT WAS SHOT. A SECURITY GUARD WAS ALSO SHOT. SO FAR, POLICE TELLING US NOBODY HAS DIED. THEY ARE. INVESTIGATING, THOUGH. WELL, IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THIS. THE FINAL GAME. GAME SEVEN, IN OKLAHOMA CITY TO CLOSE OUT THE NBA FINALS. CAN WE JUST GET IT STARTED ALREADY? THE ANTICIPATION SKIP TODAY. NO. TODAY IS GOING TO BE GREAT. BUT LET’S GET OVER THERE. THIS IS A HUGE MOMENT FOR OUR CITY. I MEAN REALLY THE BIGGEST SPORTS MOMENT IN OKLAHOMA HISTORY, IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, THIS IS PRETTY REPRESENTATIVE OF HOW A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE FEELING RIGHT NOW. LOOK AT THIS FRONT LAWN. A LOCAL FAMILY SAYS THEY’VE BEEN CHANGING THEIR YARD SIGNS OUT, AND RIGHT NOW THEY’VE GOT IT UP AS BELIEVE. WE STARTED OUT WITH OKC. THAT WAS SIMPLE. AND THEN IT GOT KIND OF BORING AND EVERYBODY WAS DIGGING IT. SO WE DECIDED TO BE LIKE CHARLOTTE’S WEB AND MAKE A NEW SAYING FOR EACH GAME, YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE. OKLAHOMA CITY DOES. WE CAN GET IT DONE TOMORROW. OUR LAST CHANCE. AND THEY SAY THEY’RE GOING TO CHANGE THE SIGN AGAIN BEFORE THE BIG GAME. WELL, IF YOU NEED A PLACE TO WATCH THE GAME THIS SUNDAY, THERE ARE ENDLESS OPTIONS AND MORE PLACES ARE JOINING IN. BUT THEY’RE SELLING OUT FAST. THE CRITERION IS HOSTING A WATCH PARTY. BUT THEY’VE ALREADY SOLD OUT. THERE’S SO MUCH HYPE AROUND CHEERING ON THE THUNDER. WE LOVE IT. HERE’S ONE THING YOU CAN DO.

TACK ONE MORE ONTO THE TALLY. WE SPOKE TO A LOCAL SPORTS RADIO HOST. THEY SAY THIS REALLY IS VERY RARE. THE OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER HAVE A LONG HISTORY WITH GAME SEVEN. THE LAST THREE GAME SEVENS, THE TEAM THAT WON GAME SIX ALSO WON GAME SEVEN. SO THERE’S THINGS GOING FOR OKLAHOMA CITY AND AGAINST. BUT THE BIGGEST NUMBER TO ME IS THAT OKLAHOMA CITY HAS OUTSCORED THEIR OPPONENTS BY OVER 200 POINTS AT HOME IN THE PLAYOFFS. NOTHING THAT HAD HAPPENED BEFORE NOW MATTERS. IT’S ALL ABOUT GAME SEVEN, RODGERS SAYS. WE WON’T KNOW HOW THIS IS GOING TO ETCH ITSELF INTO THE HISTORY BOOKS UNTIL IT’S ALL SAID AND DONE.
