Love the article. When you look at the way the bonding of the Thunder has led to success and compare it to the Lakers' ring ceremony last night and how family-oriented that felt, it's even more clear that it's easier to be a successful team if you're playing with people you like and hang out with off the court, field, pitch, etc.

That is a great article. I like how they are building that team. They found the perfect superstar to fit in with how they wanted their team to feel. It's wonderful how much the community is supporting the team.

Great article. Love the Thunder. But they put the man on the cover - ouch. Put somebody else more deserving of the curse on there. Durant is special.
Have to duly note the description of an average college day as stated in the article - practice, eat, play video games till bedtime. The Krebs giving way to Cribs.
