The OKC Thunder have been slowly building steam all season long and have won several thrilling games in the past couple months, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. With the playoffs approaching, peaking at the right time is all part of winning a championship. OKC’s remaining schedule will harden its team from top to bottom in preparation for a deep run that hopefully ends in the Thunder hoisting the Larry O’Brien Trophy.
Russell Westbrook and Paul George, both MVP talents, are the unquestioned leaders of Oklahoma City. They bring consistent intensity and high-level performance to every game, and their supporting cast falls in line with its various roles with great success.
