    This is a ticket signed by Bill Worrell and Steve Novak on 4/21/2007 against the Jazz in the first round. (If you know who the front signature is, you get a cookie because I can't remember!) 20210514_203611.jpg 20210514_203621.jpg

    Bill and Steve were talking in the tunnel pre-game and we told Steve to kick Matt Harpring in the knee. He laughed, but didn't do it. :( We told Bill he was a legend and he was really gracious.

    We have a lot of bittersweet memories from the Francis, Yao, Mac and Harden years, but I remember being able to count on Bill to make games funny and memorable. He always said what the fans were feeling. Some called that a Homer, but watching other broadcasts and then watching the home Broadcast always felt like... home.

    Thanks Bill. You're a legend.

    Why haven't they retired Steve Novak's number?
