When they denied him, he tweeted about the incident and finished with "GO SPURS."

again ... that's not true... he was trying to purchase tickets through a ticket broker and then that company had issues getting them so he (his manager) tried to go directly to the thunder to get tickets they told him that he couldn't have courtside tickets ... they were going to get him some on the end but he didn't want them ... durant and harden reached out to him and offered courtside tickets but he turned them down because he felt disrespected from the organization not the players
the thunder also turned down his request for private parking and security measures ... this was a couple days after the shooting after the game... again another disrespect to him he felt, no arena is going to have a high profile celebrity just walk in like a normal person bc of the risk of all kinds of issues when toby keith for instance goes to a game you don't think he has to walk through the front door do you?
we have several friends through work that work for the arena and even they said it wasn't right how they treated him and that the ticket managers make things happen for high profiles all the time
i don't know what happened last night though but he did purchase his courtside seats last night
