What can I say the thunder's jumpshots were falling, the Lakers were not really playing their game.
I am still going to say it again No team can win by only jump shots. If we don't beat them, that **** won't roll well against the Spurs which play with more heart than we have this year.

The key is we need to use Hill more and show hard on pick and rolls to prevent Durant and Westbrook from getting wide open looks from the free throw area.
If we don't do this, Series is over.

I'm not giving up after 1 game. They did what they had to do on their home court. We got one more chance to take one from them. LETS GO!

If we lose this game its basically over. There are no excuses for today's lost. The Lakers just don't have the right components to compete for a Championship this year.


i love this game

I'll be looking for adjustments from Brown.
He talks all the time about defense.
Let's see what he is going to do with the pick and roll

I took nothing away from that game that made me feel confident we will win the next one.

I'm looking forward I checking all that eye candy when I'm off work. Good lookin out worthy.
I only got to watch the first half last night (had to sleep), but clearly something's has to be done. To get blown out just by letting them play an almost "average" game (ie box score) is unacceptable. We need some drastic changes. At this point, i'm for benching Sessions out of the starting 5 and moving him to 6th man. I know a few have been saying this for a minute now, but I never felt the urgency to experiment till now. We won't win doing what we've been doing. Sessions has game, but the staring unit does not look like its meant for him. Sessions off the bench also at least gives is a body to put on Westbrook when Kobe rests. Running Sessions with Barnes should hopefully be enough to contain whatever 2 guards they're playing in the second unit at the time or at least not exacerbate any problems.
I bet George Karl could figure out a way to make this competitive. Can we use him as a 'consultant'?
