Oklahoma City Thunder is a bottle victory in the locker room for the first time since the release of Seattle.
The supersonics won the NBA title in 1979, but when Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and James Harden composed the new Big 3 in Oklahoma City, the new fans base thought that it would be a matter of time before seeing a potential dynasty.
However, it never came – and the Thunder, instead, was substantive inhabitants.

Today, however, they are a power led by the Shai Gilgeous-Alexander MVP and a deep rotation where anyone can start at any time.
This year’s NBA champions will celebrate their title with special bottles from Michelob Ultra, with a portable pendant and diamonds and a real gold that were used in the creation of the Larry O’Brien and other NBA trophies. The bottles were designed by Victor Solomon, who works on these trophies.
Solomon even put the pendants alone-“all the final keys for all the things that are very important to me, I do it personally by hand,” he told Fox Business in a recent interview.

“Obviously, my experience in the design and production of all the NBA trophies led to a very logical link with these guys to adorn the bottle with something at least to continue the tradition they have developed,” said Solomon. “An idea that we proposed was in a way to recycle all the reused equipment that goes to our trophy production year after year and to create the pendant. So, it is as if all these pieces were somehow children of my practical work and things around the shop – it was very biological to fill the ditch in this room.”

For Solomon too, there is a little parallel between his own execution of a successful product and the execution of future NBA champions to bring the title back to the house. However, at the very least, these champions deserved its A +stuff.
“The story, the story we want to tell with the foundation of this one, the bottle itself, is the real realization of this idea, this execution and this delivery. It must bring the weight of this trip to the final product,” said Solomon. “So, I am really a perfectionist in what I do for athletes who celebrate the journey they have been looking for since they were 10 years old. They deserve the level of care, reflection and honor that fall in the same order.”
“The customers of an interior architect will sit in this room every night, these athletes are seated with these trophies for the rest of their careers,” he continued. “So, for them, you do not want the wallpaper to be aligned in the area, they would stand up at night by looking at it. This kind of details and perfection are parallel to the discipline of athletes, I think it’s very important.”
