I’m home. But it took a long Thursday to get there. Photographer Nate Billings and I had an 11:55 a.m. flight out of Oakland. A noon flight let us sleep in a little after a late night covering Game 2 of Thunder-Warriors.
It was even a direct flight – but to Dallas. We found a $74 one-way price from Oakland to Dallas on Southwest, so we jumped on it. That meant a one-way car rental from Dallas’ Love Field to OKC, but the savings was several hundred dollars. We thought it was worth it, considering how much the company is having to spend to cover the Western Conference Finals.
