Martin Luther King Jr. Day:

I’d be remiss not to touch on the great man and what he meant to each and every one of us. With the current state of unrest, this day and MLK Jr.’s message has never been more relevant.

Like Christmas Day, MLK Day has become synonymous with the NBA. Each team celebrates and honors Martin Luther King Jr. in their own way. Here’s was the OKC Thunder tribute

OKC Thunder Fan Swag:

While OKC Thunder fans knew it was a long shot for anyone other than Westbrook to make the All-Star team it’s still great to see the fan base fully support the OKC Thunder. This tweet by LaKisha Harris was one of many who did exactly that.

Roberson D and D Swag:

If you could give any player on the Thunder a consistent shooting stroke (even from mid-range) is there anyone more deserving than Andre Roberson? His defense keeps the Thunder relevant in games and is often overlooked simply because his offense is limited. This video, however, is a nice homage to Roberson’s dunks and blocks this season.

One more on Roberson’s defense as Full Court Prez pointed out his stellar defense on three different Warriors (almost Kawhi-like) in just one possession:

Moving forward with the Swag section, one OKC Thunder player was featured almost as much as Westbrook this week and was extremely active in social media.
