Thunder @ Lakers Game 2 Thread

[Killakobe81]

Great play by Russ Westbrook ...shanon needs to quicken that release ...
But that is why it shouldbe all Kobe or Pau late inteh game Odom and Brown both failed when they got it ...

[ffadicted]

Now what? Enough time for a quick two and a stop? Or do you have to go for a 3? Or quick 2 + foul??

[badfish22]

id hit a quick two and then foul Pau

[DesignatedT]

green.

[Cry Havoc]

No and 1 for Green?

Oh, right. It's in LA.

[hitmanyr2k]

Kobe just walked :lol

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Should've been an "and 1"

[ace3g]

lucky there by the Thunder to get that shot to go.

[baseline bum]

Holy shit, Green pulled his head out his vagina.

[Spurologist]

:lmao kobe wanted a 5 second continuation

[DesignatedT]

very surprised the ref didnt count the and1 :lol

[ffadicted]

AAAAAH!!!!

Why didn't you fucking foul Gasol

[HarlemHeat37]

Green makes the toughest shot he's taken all night..

[oh crap]

miss

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

MJ makes that free throw

[baseline bum]

FT choke, just in the ASG in Atlanta.

[Frenzy]

huge miss....oh snap

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Uh oh, Kobe miss.

HERE WE GO!

[Red Hawk #21]

Kobe Chokes!

[ace3g]

missed the FT !!!!

[badfish22]

or Kobe can just choke

[ffadicted]

KOBE CHOOOKES

get a fucking rebound here

[dallaskd]

not clutch!

[Halberto]

LOL all that Jeff Green bashing

[baseline bum]

Lane violation??????

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

:lol pau try to flop

[oh crap]

15 seconds.. it's all on the line- for the win or send this shit to OT

[Chomag]

LOL at paul flopping on a free throw

[Lars]

Wow, Durant GO TO MOTHERFUCKING WORK

[milkshakeballa]

go to the fuckin rim durant and get fouled

OT OT OT !!!!!

[mogrovejo]

Did you watch the Lakers' last game vs. Memphis this season?..

Artest usually gets away with more than anybody I've ever seen, but that was the worst of his games IIRC..he was LITERALLY hugging Rudy Gay in the entire 1st half..the announcers were screaming for calls, Gay couldn't even get 1 call off the ball, it was ridiculous..

Artest is a good defender, but it's a lot easier when you can handcheck and grab without any attention..

Yeps. I recall that game perfectly, the announcers were going crazy and rightly so.

[ffadicted]

Oh shit sons...... let's see what scotty brooks is made of now

[bostonguy]

Lets see if OKC isn't their usual dumb young selfs on this possession.

[dallaskd]

go for OT or the win? what do you guys say?

[Cry Havoc]

That score by Green had the most contact I've seen in this quarter outside of Shannon Brown being half-tackled. No call.

It's unreal the NBA doesn't go out of business with officiating like this.

[HarlemHeat37]

Durant usually doesn't fare well in clutch time..he either isn't aggressive enough and gives the shot so somebody else, or usually just doesn't have success individually in clutch time..

This is huge for him..a big shot here takes him to that next level IMO..

[Killakobe81]

LOL Mavs talking about choking ...

He missed 1 FT chillout ...

[DesignatedT]

brooks better come out with something better than that last play.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Any play that doesn't involve driving to the hoop and forcing a call is WRONG.

Don't fuck this up, OKC!

[ace3g]

I hate anytime Gasol is around the basket, his yell get him to the line 90% of the time.

[badfish22]

I've seen Kobe do that a few times this year it seems.

[ffadicted]

go for OT or the win? what do you guys say?

You drive and get fouled bro, hopefully make the layup, if not OT it is

[Frenzy]

Durant with a 3 pointer at the buzzer!

heart attack mode.

[oh crap]

.....

[Capt Bringdown]

Durant with the 3 and the win.
HOOK 'EM

[baseline bum]

Artest is playing the exact same defense on the perimeter that Larry Johnson was playing against Duncan on the block in the 99 Finals. It's amazing how a rep can make the refs completely ignore the rules.

[Spurologist]

WTF was that????????

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Dumb dumb dumb

[badfish22]

dammit

[PGDynasty24]

what a choker

[siraulo23]

ohhh durant

[dirk4mvp]

Rushed shot. What the hell was that?

[DesignatedT]

fucking stupid play. brooks is way out of his league.

[Bob Lanier]

Did you watch the Lakers' last game vs. Memphis this season?..

You sound like Mark Cuban.

[ffadicted]

fuck.... what the FUUUUUUUUCK

What a shitty play scott brooks

[Lars]

Lame

[Killakobe81]

Durant is not better ...yet.

Kobe would of made that ...LOL

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Can't count on a longhorn for nuthin' lol

[Frenzy]

way to have balls and go for the win. to bad....


good look.

[badfish22]

pau prime for the choking

[DesignatedT]

missed it!

[hitmanyr2k]

What a playcall. Why not go for the quick two and then foul?

[oh crap]

yes!!!

[baseline bum]

LOL Spanish pussy

[siraulo23]

wtf gasol

[LoneStarState'sPride]

or ya know, pau can just miss his ft's.

i'm cool with that.

[ace3g]

and he missed a FT, Gasol gives the Thunder a chance

[DesignatedT]

Can't count on a longhorn for nuthin' lol

:lol

[oh crap]

Durant is not better ...yet.

Kobe would of made that ...LOL

lol.. kobe chocked a FT a minute ago. please...

[badfish22]

pau prime for the choking

yup

[siraulo23]

lakers win~

[ace3g]

BS game, oh well

[bostonguy]

what is your hate with OKC? They are the youngest team in the NBA give them a break!

Did I actually say I hate OKC?

[milkshakeballa]

FUCK


why r the fans cheering for that lazy arrogant selfish fucking team?

[Frenzy]

one hell of a game.

[baseline bum]

I'm shocked the Lakers didn't foul there. OKC didn't have a timeout.

[Otaku]

And this was an "easy" series for the Fakers??? Pff....

[01Snake]

Confetti and streamers? Seriously?

[Ghazi]

Jeff Green sucks ass.

[ffadicted]

Team leading at half will lose, this is my crystal ball prediction

You heard it here first gentleman lol

[dirk4mvp]

Jeff Green is dog shit. I'd rather have Durant taking that contested shot than Green with that.

[BanditHiro]

poor coaching at the end should have set up the 2 and tie or at the very least run the entire clock and then shoot the three

[oh crap]

so many bullshit laker calls tonight.. this should have been thunders win

[Banzai]

good effort by the thunder..going back to OKC..going to be fucking hard...

[LoneStarState'sPride]

OKC blew this game.

Had LA in the penalty for half the 4th quarter and didn't take advantage.

[HarlemHeat37]

Brooks lost this game IMO..terrible coaching in the 4th, he kept a horrible lineup that didn't include Durant, Westbrook or Thabo for way too long while the Lakers were in a scoring slump with Kobe on the bench..

Inexperience..

Lakers look really vulnerable..

[duhoh]

man once OKC gets a solid low-post presence, they're gonna be scary good.

otherwise, nice win by LA :tu

[ffadicted]

Brooks lost this game IMO..terrible coaching in the 4th, he kept a horrible lineup that didn't include Durant, Westbrook or Thabo for way too long while the Lakers were in a scoring slump with Kobe on the bench..

Pretty much. Shitty coaching, and shitty plays at the end.

[DesignatedT]

brooks going for that 3 way to early.

[mogrovejo]

+1

[oh crap]

lol @ the lakers getting taken to the wire from the 8 seed at home. championship material my ass. they won't make it past the second round with this play and without refs to bail them out.

[picc84]

That score by Green had the most contact I've seen in this quarter outside of Shannon Brown being half-tackled. No call.

It's unreal the NBA doesn't go out of business with officiating like this.

You're still watching.

[Chomag]

MVP of this game should be the refs.

[Capt Bringdown]

OKC needed this game to make the series interesting.
Lakers in 5.

[hitmanyr2k]

I didn't understand going for the three with so much time on the clock. Stupid call by the Thunder coach. With the way LA was shooting clutch free throws why not go for the quick two, tie it up and then possibly foul and put the pressure on them to make the pressure foul shots?

[ffadicted]

Was the Thunder out of timeouts?

yes

[DJ Mbenga]

I'm shocked the Lakers didn't foul there. OKC didn't have a timeout.

they didnt fall for the brush screen for durant three guys were ready to block his 3 he passed it to green who is their version of ron artest. alergic to 3pointers

[Frenzy]

Confetti and streamers? Seriously?

mavs had that 1st game too.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

brooks going for that 3 way to early.

Youngsters doing what youngsters do, I suppose.

:depressed

[Red Hawk #21]

Thunder gave it everything they had.

[bostonguy]

calling OKC, Dumb, and stupid is pretty much hating on them.

:rolleyes:rolleyes Yet you are leaving one word out that ties it all together in young. They will learn. I already said that. Chill the fuck out.

[DJ Mbenga]

MVP of this game should be the refs.

because the thunder shot 1 more FT than the lakers on the road? and the last few fouls were intentional so it would have even been a bigger advantage for the thunder?

[DazedAndConfused]

This was never going to be an easy series for the Lakers.

The Lakers struggle against young, quick, athletic teams.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

MVP of this game should be the refs.

OKC had plenty of chances, especially with LA in the penalty.

The refs missed a few controversial calls, but not enough to affect the outcome, IMO.

Durant and Co. better put up or shut up in the barren wasteland to the north of the Promised Land.

[DesignatedT]

now time to get ready for the real game tomorrow night. :hungry:

[gm5k]

so many bullshit laker calls tonight.. this should have been thunders win

kind of agree. Lakers definitely got some BS calls, but Thunder also blew it :bang

[portpower_11]

Was the Thunder out of timeouts?


No

Lol let J Green take the last shot!

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Barkley should have called Kenny and Ernie assholes again.

[Fpoonsie]

Gay. They made Charles apologize for his "asshole."

Fucking awkward the way EJ straight-faced it the whole time.

[ffadicted]

No

Lol let J Green take the last shot!

Yes they were, watch the game

[LoneStarState'sPride]

now time to get ready for the real game tomorrow night. :hungry:

I'm ready for a little animal cruelty myself, hehe.

FTm!

[LoneStarState'sPride]

shut the fuck up! You are ragging on them because they are young, and calling them dumb, etc.

You chill the fuck out, of course they are going to make mistakes because they are young, and inexperienced.

I think this "Veteran" needs to calm down :lol

[ffadicted]

TV's so gay I can't believe they made him apologize

[DesignatedT]

I'm ready for a little animal cruelty myself, hehe.

FTm!

Please let us win tomorrow. I can't handle spurstalk tomorrow if we lose. complete meltdownnn

Yeah, I was exaggerating it a tad there lol. OKC still had a chance to win this game.

What will they learn?

[ffadicted]

Series doesn't start till the home team loses yo'

[DesignatedT]

Series doesn't start till the home team loses yo'

Haha im right there with you on that one. Unfortunately about 10% of spurstalk thinks this way.

or just cant handle there emotions after a loss :lol

[bostonguy]

What will they learn?

Brooks will learn from his coaching mistakes. Durant will learn how to execute the right way in crunch time. All these youngsters in Westbrook,Ibaka,Harden are learning how they need to improve their games especially for postseason play. Add in an elite big, and that really takes them more steps forward.

[Chomag]

LOL @ Charles shitting on the refs

[Giuseppe]

Yes, they'll be yet another fine farm team for the NBA.

[baseline bum]

Gay. They made Charles apologize for his "asshole."

Fucking awkward the way EJ straight-faced it the whole time.

I liked it better when he called the Iraq war a bunch of bullshit live on air a few years ago.

[Killakobe81]

lol.. kobe chocked a FT a minute ago. please...

That was a joke dumbass someone posted MJ would of made the FT Kobe missed ...

[bostonguy]

I liked it better when he called the Iraq war a bunch of bullshit live on air a few years ago.

Remember when Barkley got fed up around that time in 2003 about the Kidd replacing Parker rumors. It was before the Nets/Spurs game and he said "it's bullshit to talk about this right now" or something like that.

[Killakobe81]

All of yall getting wet over a close game.

We may not win it all ... but we are NOT losing in this round.

[gm5k]

God I hate the Lakers this year. I can't believe it, but I think I'm actually going to root for the Mavs when they play each other.

[Ghazi]

God I hate the Lakers this year. I can't believe it, but I think I'm actually going to root for the Mavs when they play each other.

throwin in the towel so quickly? :greedy:flag::flag:

[lurker]

Please let us win tomorrow. I can't handle spurstalk tomorrow if we lose. complete meltdownnn
If Spurs lose, half will be melting down and the other half will all start new threads on why they still believe the Spurs got this. :lol

[baseline bum]

Remember when Barkley got fed up around that time in 2003 about the Kidd replacing Parker rumors. It was before the Nets/Spurs game and he said "it's bullshit to talk about this right now" or something like that.

Nah, I didn't see that. I think I watched every Spurs game that playoffs out at bars that always muted the pregame and halftime shows. That's pretty funny though.

[gm5k]

throwin in the towel so quickly? :greedy:flag::flag:

ok, when they most likely play each other :lol I do think they will meet. I haven't given up on the Spurs. just making honest predictions here.

[DJ Mbenga]

i guess we will have to save the LMAO threads for tomorrow.

[DesignatedT]

If Spurs lose, half will be melting down and the other half will all start new threads on why they still believe the Spurs got this. :lol

all in all ill be hanging out in the club until friday's game if we lose tom :lol

[The TroutBum]

Down by two, 15 seconds left, and the coach calls for a three with 10 seconds left on the clock...

You fuck heads deserved to lose this game.

[TheMACHINE]

Down by two, 15 seconds left, and the coach calls for a three with 10 seconds left on the clock...

You fuck heads deserved to lose this game.

Westbrook shoulda went in for a mid range jumper, then watch a Laker player miss a ft, then go for the win. lol

[SomeCallMeTim]

mogro's got a point. I don't know any other defender allowed to ride players on the perimeter like Artest is being allowed to tonight. This is ridiculous.

Let me introduce you to a team. They wear green, play their home games in New England...

[MiamiHeat]

thanks a lot scott brooks, fucking fake ass bitch

go learn to coach

[SomeCallMeTim]

Awesome game. Not a classic or anything, too many missed FTs and overall offensive fails, but two teams playing HARD and skilled on defense... EVERYTHING challenged. And not dirty, good to see no trash talking, Collison holding up Brown on the hard foul, etc. I guess Ibaka and Odom did go at it in the first half, but Artest was the peacemaker for crying out loud. Nearly brought a tear to my eye.

[Ashy Larry]

OKC is legit. Sure they lack the experience but they are making the Lakers work like hell. And I love their defensive play.

[Ashy Larry]

Did Lamar Odom play tonight?

[Giuseppe]

Did Lamar Odom play tonight?

Yeah, that was him loitering the side door.

[cobbler]

Down by two, 15 seconds left, and the coach calls for a three with 10 seconds left on the clock...

You fuck heads deserved to lose this game.

Many coaches will go for the win in that situation ON THE ROAD and play for the tie and extend the game at home.

[Ashy Larry]

Yeah, that was him loitering the side door.


just unbelievable how this dude disappears...... and reappears ..... brutal

[cobbler]

OKC is legit. Sure they lack the experience but they are making the Lakers work like hell. And I love their defensive play.

I like thier team a lot. They are one good center away from being a real beast for many years. For their collective ages they show a lot of grit and poise. Really really good looking youung team.

[Giuseppe]

just unbelievable how this dude disappears...... and reappears ..... brutal

& I swear he plays to Artest's offensive level so Artest ain't being shitty by himself.

[21_Blessings]

future OKC > future Portland

[cobbler]

thanks a lot scott brooks, fucking fake ass bitch

go learn to coach

How ironic that he's the leading candidate for coach of the year. :lmao

[Ashy Larry]

I like thier team a lot. They are one good center away from being a real beast for many years. For their collective ages they show a lot of grit and poise. Really really good looking youung team.

once they get rid of Eton Thomas and that worthless contract, they will definitely be able to keep this kids for some years. Only losers in this is Seattle. That athleticism is just crazy. Lakers need to get at least one in Oklahoma.



& I swear he plays to Artest's offensive level so Artest ain't being shitty by himself.


Ron has played great on one end of the floor though. Lamar hasn't done shit on either.

[RsxPiimp]

Brown needs more minutes.


Fishers 32 to Shannon's 12 is mind boggling.
