LA's weaknesses:
-PG Defense (Westbrook will go bananas)
-Lack of Athleticism and Speed (Thunder are long, athletic and fast)
-Horrible bench (facing the top bench in the NBA, including the 6th man of the year)

LA's strengths:
-Size (unfortunately OKC has the best post defender and the best shotblocker in the league)
-Kobe (Thabo, Durant, Harden all do well against him)

Yeah, it's kind of funny how OKC only has Perkins for one team, and they get to play them next.

Perkins is pretty mediocre against every team, but amazing against the Lakers.

Sam Presti is one of the best GMs in basketball, and he built this Thunder team to beat the Lakers.

Not a good shot Vince

Why would this stop Deron Williams from joining the Mavs? The only other team he should consider joining is Indiana. Where else is he gonna play?

1) Kobe can lock up Westbrook
2) Playoff basketball is about the halfcourt, not speed
3) LA's bench has been better, and rotation shorten in the post-season anyway.
4) OKC will have issues with LA's size

OKC pouring it on. Dallas looks finished

I know Harden is trying to get an easier shot, but he has got to stop ignoring Durant.

KD is on fire, and Harden is just ignoring him.

He should wait until '13 and come to Orlando!

have you watched the game?
How can the refs call so many fouls on Westbrooks Midrange jumpers?

Please tell me exactly how many of those have been called tonight.

Oh, wait, I know! Zero.

This is why we make fun of Mavs fans.

From within reach to full blowout in like 2 minutes.

I think Deron should go to Indiana. It'd be better to have a good team in the east.

If I hear this Mavs announcer try to get the crowd into cheering and give up after they don't do it one more time..

Harden is scared of Peace too.

I agree with you there, great points

Who wins this series and in how many?
