This season of One Tree Hill has been one of the best yet! From the Lindsey-Lucas-Peyton love triangle, to crazy Nanny Carrie, to Kate Voegele's guest starring role as Mia, season five has had us hooked. We recently got the chance to chat with OTH star James Lafferty about the show's past, present, and future -- read on to find out what his favorite storyline has been, how it feels to sit on the sidelines during basketball scenes, and who he thinks Lucas should be with!

So what are your thoughts on this season so far?
It's been really great. The four years jump ahead has, I think, injected a new life into the show, and everybody has really enjoyed playing their characters and their new arcs and playing our ages. So it's been different in a very good way.
