OKC goes up 2-0.
Their frontrunning has become comical at this point. Predictions for tonight?
OKC goes up 2-0.
OKC wins by 10+, but by less than 20.
hoping lakers make this series closer
Thunder need some compe ion before facing the Spurs
111-89 Thunder
Stephen Strasburg was bothered by stray Hot Stuff in his groin during Tuesday's loss to the Padres.
Hot Stuff is an analgesic ointment like Icy-Hot that is often used as a muscle-loosener. But it can cause quite a bit of pain when applied to ... more sensitive skin. "I can’t really tell you what the problem was, but some Hot Stuff got misplaced," manager Davey Johnson said. "It was on his shoulder and evidently – I don’t know how it got to where it got, but it was uncomfortable, to say the least." Strasburg allowed four runs in four innings.
Much closer game, but OKC should still win.
I'm looking at a beatdown to the tune of 122-86 or 131-92.
I think OKC crushes again; they look ridiculous this postseason.
Honestly, either a blowout or a Laker win if the officiating evens out.
A crushing defeat either makes a team snap back to reality or throws them a shovel while they are 6 feet under.
At some point Westbrook is going to come back down to earth. That's when the Lakers will go in.
So the only difference between a Thunder blowout and a Laker win is even officiating?
agree
the rapist needs to go for 80
Nah, I meant if it's not a blowout and it's compe ive then even officiating will be a large factor. With Bynum/Gasol & Hill coming off the bench, there is a huge front court advantage. That can be quickly neutralized with somebody ac ulating fouls.
Got it. Haven't seen a fair game called in OKC this year tbh, so not likely.
The Lakers are gonna play great tonight. Kobe will shoot around 49%. Bynum and Gasol will both have double -doubles. Blake will make 4 3-pointers and Sessions will score 10 points. They are gonna come out blazing...
but they will still lose by 7.
Just end this series already....
So the lakers gonna score 200 points?
yah, but OKC will score 207.So the lakers gonna score 200 points?
It only took 1 game to break Lakers fans. Aww.
Lakers' Ebanks and Bynum Fined
NEW YORK, May 16, 2012 – Los Angeles Lakers forward Devin Ebanks and center Andrew Bynum have each been fined for separate violations, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President Basketball Operations.
Ebanks has been fined $25,000 for actions prior to and following his ejection from the Lakers’ 119-90 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals on May 14.
Bynum has been fined $15,000 for failing to make himself available to the media following the Lakers’ practice on May 15.
If LA gets blown out again, especially if it occurs with little contribution from Sessions while Westbrook goes off, they are in huge trouble. OKC's personnel and gameplan are perfectly suited for beating LA unless LA's starting 5 does some extreme heavy lifting.
