The Spin


After relocating to Oklahoma City 18 years ago, winning the NBA Championship over more established franchises seemed more than an improbabe feat for the Thunder. But now that they're here with a young side that's full of talent, this could just be the beginning of the Thunder's dominance.

This is the seventh different champion in seven straight years of NBA action. It shows that the era of dominating dynasties is over and that the competition is more equally matched than ever.
