Report: Thunder culture remains intact

The Oklahoma City Thunder are one of the best organizations in the NBA as they have a strong culture throughout. Over the last few weeks many of the players have been working out together in Los Angeles, which is a strong signal that the culture remains intact. From Berry Tramel of The Oklahoman:

    "The guys have been meeting at 8 a.m., which is early for Los Angeles and dang early for basketball players accustomed to a night-owl clock. Thursday, the guys slept in. Didn’t meet until 10 a.m. They assembled on the beach at Santa Monica, played a little football in the sand, then went to breakfast together. Hoop drills came later in the day. The Thunder’s self-styled mini-camp is as much about bonding as it is basketball. And somewhere, Sam Presti has to be smiling. The Thunder culture, good ol’ Thunder University, hasn’t been crippled by the passage of time or the anguish of a season from hell. 'It was really cool,' said the president of the fraternity, fellow by the name of Kevin Durant. 'It was fun, good to see everybody. Haven’t seen all the guys since the end of the season.'"
