Derek Fisher has furnished Oklahoma City with incredible veteran authority falling off the seat. Fisher has played in every one of the 15 season finisher games and midpoints 21.2 minutes per game. With the Los Angeles Lakers, Fisher brought home five NBA titles, so the Thunder's young stars ought to gain from him how to become NBA champions. With Fisher ready, Oklahoma City has an encounter to praise the young.

James Solidify has kept on showing why he won the 2011-12 NBA 6th Man of the Year Grant. Solidify has not begun a solitary season finisher game, however he has found the middle value of 1.7 takes per game and a .446 shooting rate past the curve.

Whichever group wins the Eastern Gathering should fear the facial hair in the finals, particularly from three point an area. Regardless of falling off the seat, Solidify has found the middle value of 31.1 minutes per game in these end of the season games.

Six players are under 25 years of age. Durant, Solidify and Russell Westbrook seemingly the Thunder's three best players — are 23, 22, and 23, individually.

On the off chance that Oklahoma City were to meet Boston in the NBA Finals, it would confront a group with five season finisher entertainers north of 30 years of age. Each of the three of the Enormous Three Kevin Garnett, Beam Allen and Paul Pierce are something like 34 years of age.

The Celtics wouldn't stay up with the Thunder's super charged offense in a season finisher series. The San Antonio Prods, another more established group, couldn't cut down the Roar in the Western Gathering Finals.

The Miami Intensity additionally has some wear on its tires, yet its Enormous Three of LeBron James, Dwayne Swim and Chris Bosh are no more seasoned than 30. James likewise won the 2011-12 NBA Most Important Player Grant, as he and Durant were the best players in their separate gatherings this season.

The rival, however, has not made a difference to Oklahoma City in the 2012 NBA End of the season games. San Antonio tied for the association's best customary season record and completed second in normal season focuses per game. The Thunder have continued to roll.

Last season, Oklahoma City lost in the Western Meeting Finals to the Dallas Dissidents. This season, the Thunder have defeated the two deterrents, beating Dallas in the principal round of the Western Gathering End of the season games and dominating the Western Meeting Finals.

Like the Lakers brought home five NBA titles from 2000 to 2010, the Thunder can turn into the group of 10 years. That all beginnings with a NBA title in 2012. A relentless offense matched with a youthful core simply entering its prime proposes this is just the start of incredible achievement the Midwest. Oklahoma City has ruled the opposition this postseason. The strain of the Finals won't transform anything.
