For the past few years, some guy from Akron, Ohio was the easy choice for the MVP, scoring title, and any other accolade you could possibly think of. Either way, that ship has sailed. The man who calls himself "King" basically put his hometown on their knees and held them hostage for approximately 17 minutes on national television before he announced that he was leaving for Miami. Because he's joining forces ...

With the 2010 NBA draft week finally over, it's only right we take time out to judge each team's decisions. My favorite team is no exception. The Oklahoma City Thunder were easily the most active organization in the league during the draft. It seemed like they made a deal every 30 seconds. The Thunder didn't take any risks at all, trading two of their three first round draft picks to go after ...

Everybody knows the elite duos in the league, sure. You have Kobe/Pau, Parker/Duncan, Nelson/Howard, and so on. However, there as so many future lethal duos in the league that have the potential to be far better than any of the above listed.

You probably couldn't think of a bigger night for the state of Oklahoma.  The Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Los Angeles Lakers for Game Three of a first round NBA Playoff series.  It is the first time the city or state has ever hosted an NBA playoff game.

After the game, I've seen a lot of Laker fans extremely confident that they will sweep the series against the young Oklahoma Thunder and coast to the championship most likely against Cleveland or Orlando.

Everyone who has a team that is in the playoffs will be looking to read every article about their team's chances to win the whole thing or to at least create an upset.

With Oklahoma City losing last night to Portland, the Thunder locked up the eighth seed and will meet up with the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs this weekend. This will easily be the most watched first round series throughout the playoffs.  The biggest reason is that the Lakers are playing.  But also because a lot of NBA fans haven't had the chance to see the Thunder play this ...

Since the Oklahoma City Thunder clinched a playoff berth a couple days ago against the falling Mavericks, we can finally exhale and think about the post-season. A lot of people do not think the Thunder will get very far in the playoffs because of the inexperience of their roster. However, I think their youth will actually help them in the post season. The Thunder will gain a lot of respect in ...

Looking at Lamar Odom's massive 6'10'' frame, you don't imagine too many things could hurt the guy. Although, if you look past the big smile and sit down to listen to his story, it is enough to leave you speechless. Coming from extreme humble beginnings, Odom has shown extreme perseverance in overcoming extremely tough obstacles in his life. After finding his love for basketball, Odom never looked back. He ...

At the beginning of the year, everyone who pays attention to the Oklahoma City Thunder has known that the one piece missing for the team has been a dominant big man. A lot of people have speculated about trades in which the team could try to land an experienced, talented big man.  Those names have included players like Chris Bosh, Chris Kaman, Andrew Bynum, and others.
