Old pal Brad Lund has done many things around town over the years. PR for the Continental Basketball Association Cavalry. General manager of hockey’s Blazers. Promoter of soccer and tennis and gymnastics.
But at the heart, Lund always has been an OU basketball fan. He was a student PR assistant in the Billy Tubbs heyday. When you worked stats for those glorious old Sooner teams, you have an appreciation for numbers. And Lund sent me a cool note over the weekend.
Buddy Hield’s Saturday – eating popcorn courtside of OU’s victory over Texas on Saturday afternoon, then hanging 34 on the Thunder in the Sacramento Kings’ 119-116 upset Saturday night – inspired Lund to do some research.
