I'm not going to remove it. It's a badge of pride. This city was proud of these guys when they sucked, and they're proud of them now.
I have so much respect for the Spurs, and I wasn't sure we could pull off that series. How we beat them four times in a row after losing the first two is a great testament to the mental toughness of these guys.
Thunder factoids that I like:
1. Last night, Kevin Durant reached a career win/loss record of .500. 209-209. Think on that for a minute -- as successful as these guys have been the last 3 seasons, they were just as dismal at the beginning of his career.
2. No matter who comes out of the East, the Thunder will have faced the organizations that account for 11 out of the last 13 NBA champions in the 4 rounds of the Playoffs. (Spurs - 4, Lakers-5, Mavericks-1 & Celtics-1 or Heat-1)
