Wed 5/16 - Lakers @ Thunder - Game 2 - Predictions/Comments

Lakers look fatigued.

Getting to the line..... that's another encouraging sign....

Defense is still scrambling around quite a bit however..... and getting lost in the process.

Kobe trying to attack the rim...isn't that what all his critics want him to do?

Can MWP guard Durant, Westbrook and Harden? Kobe looks tired and Blake is, well, Blake.

I hate timeouts

The tempo is definitely in our favor early. Our defense is a lot more active than in Game 1 as well.

If only Bynum can find his teammates they would be more of a threat.

8:05 of the first: Bynum and Sessions are defending a PNR with Westbrook and Perkins. Bynum ends up on Westbrook, who gets around him and then blows by Kobe "I don't take a charge" Bryant - blown layup and foul. Bynum has words with Kobe.

I'm sure there will be lots of video tomorrow explaining how it was Bynum's fault.

Pace is what the Lakers want though....

Why don't we try this: hold the ball, then dump it into Kobe with 5 seconds left on the shotclock. That's a brand new strategy.

Finding them is one thing..... having them make something when/if he does in another completely...

are you related to Bynum on his father's or mother's side?

What's new about this?

I can't believe that Kobe's been getting this calls. Nothing like the Denver series.

Harden gettin' even.....

Critics say no. He's lost his lateral speed.
