[email protected] THUNDER CREDENTIAL POLICY FOR 2012 NBA PLAYOFFS All media members holding a 2011-2012 Thunder Full Season Media credential will have the same access to ALL Oklahoma City Thunder HOME playoff games through the FIRST THREE ROUNDS. Single game credential requests need to be made NO LATER THAN 12:00 pm the day BEFORE the game. Should a single game credential be granted to you by the Thunder Basketball Communications Department, credentials will be made available for pick-up at the Cheasapeake Energy Arena media entrance FOUR HOURS prior to tip-off. Due to the increased number of credential requests, this will be a hard deadline and requests received after this time will not be guranteed. PRESS SEATING We will do our best to accommodate as many media members as we can inside the Cheasapeake Energy Arena for all Thunder playoff games. Due to increased media coverage, we cannot guarantee media seating. Media seating charts can be found in the Thunder press room located on the event level of the Cheasapeake Energy Arena.
