Summary:
"
Oklahoma
City
was born from chaos. It was founded in a bizarre but momentous "Land Run" in 1889, when thousands of people lined up along the borders of
Oklahoma
Territory and rushed in at noon to stake their claims. Since then, it has been a
city
torn between the wild energy that drives its outsized ambitions, and the forces of order that seek sustainable progress. Nowhere was this dynamic better realized than in the drama of the
Oklahoma
City
Thunder basketball team's 2012-13 season, when the Thunder's brilliant general manager, Sam Presti, ignited a firestorm by trading future superstar James Harden just days before the first game."--From publisher.
