Thunder would have to go through Spurs, Warriors, and the Cavs to win a championship. If they managed to actually do that it could lowkey go down as one of the GOAT postseason runs just based on strength of opponent.
I just want WestGOD to get his ring.
True. Low key tho, the '2011 Mavs had one of the most impressive title runs:
Blazers (Brandon Roy/LaMarcus Aldridge)
Lakers (back to back defending champs going for the 3 peat)
Thunder (Durant, Westbrook Harden & Ibaka)
Heat (Lebron & Wade taking turns doing video game shyt)
Wade was still considered top 5 at the time (this was when ppl were still arguing that he was better than Bron and "Batman"). So that means Dirk went through arguably 4 of the top 5 players in the league. (Lebron Kobe Durant Wade) plus 2 more in top 10-15 consideration (Westbrook, Bosh, Gasol..) and i forget what Roy's status was by that point in his career.
2011 was one of the peak talent years in the league imho, both conferences were pretty stacked and just about all the main cogs were healthy for once. So that Dirk came out on top outta that was crazy
