"You can't be better in a loss than Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was on Saturday night [in Game 7]. Can't play better, can't be a better example, can't lead better... Shai acted like a grown a*s man before during and after."

Russell Westbrook reflects on his time in Oklahoma:
“To the people of Oklahoma City, thank all you guys. I grew up here coming as a 16-17 year old kid from Los Angeles. You guys welcomed my family with open arms, and I’ll truly always be grateful for that.” 💙

Russell Westbrook reportedly invested over $10M into OKC’s new stadium project and is helping shape it as a creative director 💙
That’s franchise legend status.
The Oklahoma City Thunder completely owned the state of California this season.
Final record against California teams:
🔻8-0 vs Lakers
🔻4-0 vs Warriors
🔻3-0 vs Clippers
🔻3-0 vs Kings
18-0 TOTAL.
What makes it even crazier is how dominant they looked doing it.
Elite defense.
Depth everywhere.
Constant pressure offensively.
The Thunder didn’t just beat California teams. They erased them. After another sweep over the Lakers, Oklahoma City keeps looking more and more like the team to beat in the NBA.
