[edit] 2005(Inaugural Season)
The Thunder had an impressive inaugural campaign, leading the west with a 12-6 record. However, due to the IBL's inaugural season playoff setup, the team was denied a spot in the championship game.
[edit] 2006
Being a returning team was no help to the Thunder as their record was worse in 2006, 11-11. Three expansion teams placed higher than the Thunder did. The team was led by two high-scoring all-stars, Kenny Tate(25.1 ppg), and Lamar Morinia(23.6 ppg).
[edit] 2007
It was announced by the IBL that the Thunder had changed hands and would now be known as the Jets, promising a new focus for the team.[1] Inexplicably, the franchise was removed from the IBL website, having been replaced by the Tacoma Jazz.
