Bynum killing Porkins. Good to see him engaged early.
Ibaka is huge in this series imo. The mid-range shot from a big is very important against LA.

the thunder is a shooting team and those team don't go far in the playoff
Both teams look sharp as tonight. This looks to be an amazing series.
Why is Perkins on Bynum instead of Ibaka? Putting Ibaka on Gasol means he's going to be farther away from the hoop... less shot block chances. Makes no sense.
OKC needs to double off Sessions as much as possible, even if he gets hot, tbh..
Does Brooks actually coach?..
Definitely. That's not a slight either. It's an impact thing. Contenders when they play that way.
Quickness and size
I really want the Lakers to lose the series, but i just don't see it happening because OKC will indefinitely fall in love with the jump shot...
Wow, I thought Ibaka was a lot bigger than 235.That's surprising.
Super high-scoring game. This does not favor the Lakers.
Bynum has traveled at least twice in this game.
Bodie's hot
credit to the heads from LA for coming out sharp.
OKC loves to shoot jump shots, they are like an updated old school mavericks team
OKC's bench should have a significant advantage, we'll see if any Laker bench players step up..it'll be interesting to see if Blake is still hot..
that is what is holding the thunder to win a championship
Does any team with young superstars hance a coach that actually does anything these days?
I've been telling people that we match up better with OKC than Denver. Why? It's a more traditional matchup.
Bynum on Porkins
Gasol on Ibaka
MWP on KD
Kobe on Thabo
Sessions on Westbrick (gulp)
They don't have dudes that are 6'9" coming off the bench like Harrington shooting 3s. They have Collison, but now we have Hill to combat him.
Plus - Kobe is healthy this year.
Lakers are Contenders
Lakers playing above their heads right now. They will crash back to earth if this pace continues.
Westbrook takes some of the dumbest shots. He's like Kobe-lite.
I think Phil Jackson will be perfect for this team. Otherwise the Miami Heat.
Miami will be scary with Phil Jackson.
