If Alexander leads the team to win the championship, his team s status in history will completely surpass Adu and Westbrook?

The Oklahoma City Thunder is experiencing the best season in team history and becoming the first in the league in the regular season. In the playoffs, he has now defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves and successfully advanced to the finals. As the leader of the Thunder, Alexander made an indelible contribution to the team's performance. So far in the 2024-25 season, he has won the regular season MVP and the playoff Western Conference Finals MVP, and two MVP trophys.

Now, Alexander still needs a Finals MVP to prove his strength to the outside world and his position in the Thunder history. Recently, former Thunder player Perkins also talked about Alexander, and specifically talked about Alexander's position in the team's team history after the Thunder won this year.

Perkins said "He will be the greatest Thunder of all time, yes, surpassing Kevin Durant and Russelvester Brooke."

Perkins won the championship with the Boston Celtics in 2008, and later entered the finals with the Oklahoma City Thunder's young Big Three. Unfortunately, the Heat lost to the Miami Heat Big Three in the end. If the Thunder can win the championship this season, the historical status of many Thunder players will undergo some drastic changes.

For Alexander, surpassing Kevin Durant and Westbrook's Western Conference Thunder's status is not simple. Westbrook has been a regular season MVP for the Thunder, has been elected as the assists, scoring champion, and has averaged triple-double in several seasons. Kevin Durant was elected the scoring champion four times and was also elected as the regular season MVP.

If Alexander can lead the team to win the championship, he will most likely win the third MVP this season, which is undoubtedly a huge feat. Alexander's performance in the playoffs is no less than that in the regular season. In high-intensity games, he averaged 29.8 points per game. When playing against the Minnesota Timberwolves, they almost made a bet on the offensive end, which brought a huge blow to Edwards. If Alexander wins the championship, he will most likely surpass Kevin Durant and Westbrook's team history status. The MVP Grand Slam in a single season is the first person in history, and even if it will be broken in the future, it is almost difficult. Moreover, neither Kevin Durant nor Westbrook have ever brought the team an NBA championship.

The two still live up to the team. Kevin Durant surrendered to the Golden State Warriors, Westbrook was overpaid, and the trade was in Houston Rockets to join forces with James Harden, but in the end he only partnered with James Harden for one season, he went his separate ways. For Alexander, fighting for the championship is a great feat. It is not a big problem to use the influence of one championship to surpass the two.
