2012 Conf. Semis: (2) Thunder vs. (3) Lakers

[el badman]

I'm hoping OKC will crush those fuckers. Certainly seems like a good start right now.
And wtf with World Peace's comments... What a 'tard.

Cole Aldrich sighting! Poor Lakers...

[NovU]

Ebanks thrown out from the garbage time. He hits the chair and takes off his shirt. Tells you the story of the Lakers this game. Ebanks, the Laker with the biggest heart tonight.

When you're hot ... you're hot ...

I hope the Lakers can bounce back in game 2 .... I don't know what's up with the jump shots ... all of them are falling down ..

Defensively ... they should defend those screen-jumpshots ... hate that play ... I hope the Lakers can really make this a series ...

Fine Bestbrook and suspend him two games plz:

[rise]

^ What the fuck was he even going for?

After last night's game, I wouldn't be completely surprised to see a sweep. The Thunder are the far superior team.

^ What the fuck was he even going for?

He is just conceitedly saying...that the Lakers would rather go fishin When he's the one goin fishing in the WCF

I wonder if somebody convinced nba players to wear this stuff and is laughing at them behind their back. Carmelo with his preppy look, Amare and his thick rim glasses, Durant and his backpack.

[Andrew]

Impressive win to open the series. I still feel like the rest of the series is going to be more competitive, it is just one game after all. Still, the Thunder are looking scary after that one.

[Nick]

They're just trying to set trends. I bet they do laugh about it behind the scenes.

Meanwhile i voted OKC in 6, but it's starting too look like the Lakers could get swept lol.
Thunder in 4 or 5.

If they're like LeBron or Jordan, they also have their own 'fashion assistant'. Obviously Jordan doesn't have one anymore.

I think Carmelo's look is his own idea. He reportedly visits a lot of art galleries in NY. Maybe he's trying to look smart and fancy.
Amare gets a pass, he did get that eye injury a few years back and even wears goggles during games up to now. With his fucked up knees, protecting his eyes off the court isn't such a bad idea to avoid hurting it again.
At least Durant's is a back pack and not a man purse.
Speaking of terrible fashion, check out the muscle shirt on this guy

1st Quarter: Bynum was efficient down low and Kobe strong on defensive end but he wasn't as good on the other end of the court. Too much isolation for Kobe and he has been efficiently guarded by Sofolosha. Probably the reason why the Lakers weren't as good on offensive end with Kobe in the line up. For the Thunder, they seemed to have a momentum on their side with all those blocks but failed to capitalize on those strong defensive plays. Hence the Lakers with 1 points lead after 1.

Hey it's still game 1 and 2... Of course they will strongly get it.. But this is a matter of testing the odds.. Then adjustment will come next, I don't think the lakers will go down easily...

[JBoom_LALALAND]

3 point lead for the Thunder after two turnovers ... by the lakers.

[NovU]

2nd Quarter was tainted by the referees. Obvious non-call on shove by Word Piece of Shit was total BS and double foul on Gasol and Harden was just as BS as Harden wasn't even moving but was hit from behind by Gasol. And that was followed by foul on Perkins which was also a joke. Hence the Lakers still in the game.

The 3rd quarter seems to be the Lakers' big men's show early on. The way the Lakers should attack.

[NovU]

This game is amazing but Kobe's choking just gave the Thunder a lead. 18 seconds to go with Thunder in lead by just 1 point. Let's see.

[dare]

[NovU]

Game over. 2-0. My prediction ain't looking too good but I really don't care. Props to the Thunder.
