Do You Think Lakers Are Worried A Little?

[jjgold]

Winning series 2-1 but it seems last night was their shot to win, they controlled game like 1st 2 but Okl City does not go away and just keeps fukkin coming at you, if Durant gets his shooting percentage up a little the Lakers are done. Kobe looks worried, they are playing a team with young polished studs that are not scared. Watch out if this series goes to 2-2.

I think this is going seven games. Lakers looked so impotent that second half on offense.

Kobe was taking shots all day and they just wouldn't sink. I don't think OKC will make it, but they will keep it close. Durant can't do it by himself and his team mates cannot expect him too, so they have to provide as much as they can also. OKC came up with a few huge shots late, but Kevin Durant stole the show. OKC need that to happen again in game 4. Kobe is clearly not right at the moment.

OKC defense made the big stops when they had to. Lakers couldn't get good looks down the stretch. Luke Walton is hurt and cannot play at all - he killed them the few minutes he was in the game last night. Odom needs to be much more consistent. Farmar and Bynum looked good and need to play more. Durant had a relatively off game (for him) but the Thunder still managed to win, even after being blown out early.

Bottom line - be worried, LA. Be very worried. Even if you manage to beat OKC, you will need alot of improvement if you expect to repeat.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Lakers will not repeat.

[2daBank]

no need to worry they wont lose this series

[jjgold]

Lakers might get by this series but they definitely are not win the title and will be tough even to get to the finals.

[soli]

The Lakers only will play when they need to play

[sweetjones55]

The Lakers are not worried at all. They still have a top three player in the NBA, best coach in the NBA, and the utmost confidence. This loss will just wake them up in a little bit. It's normal for better teams to lose game 3, it happens all the time.

Now with that being said if OKC jumps out on them next game and never looks back and goes up 2-2, watch out because then the Lakers will be worried. Lakers still win this series but it could go 7 if that happens.

[strybie]

the problem for the lakers is : now OKC will be very confident (after great come back and win). Yesterday they started so nervous ... Think they will have a much better start in the next game and when it is tied at 2, the pressure is on LA in game 5. If OKC wins game 2 they might steal a game in LA and win the series.

[ngates815]

The fvcked my ass on a 5 to win 80 parlay....They should have no problem winning the series though.

[Brock Landers]

OK City could be up 2-1...they were leading game 2 with 2 fukking mins to go, Lakers are EXTREMELY lucky to be ahead.

Just like against Orlando last year in the finals..Orlando was 1 shot away in 2 different games (2 and 4) from losing that series.

Stern was in attendance last night and if you saw his interview you should have known what was gonna happen in this game.

I hope OKC take the LAYke show out, cause someones gotta do the dirty work for my JAZZ

Funny when the lakers lose one game everyone is going apeshit. They werent going to sweep okc anyways and the thunder won 49 games this year- they are a very good team. The Lakers didnt win many more. How come no one is saying anything about the Cavs losing game 3 to a way inferior team?

[PAULYPOKER]

The only team stopping the Jazz from going to the Championship is the Fake show.........

With this said the only 2 teams that can beat LAYkers in a series is OKC and the Spurs

[PAULYPOKER]

And if the Jazz get to the Championship they will beat Cavs or Magic

Which turns my future ticket into GOLD!!!

[bigdaddyjames]

i don't think the lakers have anything to worry about >>> they will win this series ....

[beach nut]

OKC wins one more game at the most.

Considering how they limped home in the regular season, they better be.

Good say I say

[AnotherLoan]

Same questions came up during their first round series against Houston last year and they went on to win the title so I don't think they're worried at all.

[msully2888]

they should be cucz if thunder take them down again next game its a whole different series big momentum shift

[PAULYPOKER]

they should be cucz if thunder take them down again next game its a whole different series big momentum shift

Exactly because OKC almost stole the last game in LA

[2daBank]

Pauly you burnt that money when you made that Jazz future bet so you might as well stop hating on the Lakers cause i doubt Jazz get past Den and if they do someone else will beat them

[lyon804]

No, LA is not worried. I am proud to say I had OKC last nite but the 2H wouldn't have mattered had the referees not held the game close in the 1H by OKC getting most of the calls. The referees kept OKC in the game until they got there shit together late in the 3rQ.

[PAULYPOKER]

I have to agree with you on the Ref's part however the Thunder now no longer need Ref's help cause they have the confidence of Fort Knox....Gold that is well maybe exaggerated a little

[KiDBaZkiT]

LA just needs to realize that Gasol deserves more shot attempts than Bryant plain and simple. Kobe's shot selection is absolutely pitiful. Last night down the stretch I couldnt believe his shot selection a couple contested 3's when you are down 2? Guy is shooting 36% for the series, 36%? Are you ****ing kidding me? What a disgrace and I dont want to hear about his little finger he broke fingering his own ass if its affecting him that much he needs to be a facilitator like he was in the firstQ of last nights game. Lakers started out like 7 outta 7 just cause he was passing and setting guys up rather than dribbling from 17 feet waiting for a defender to come out and then fade away for a contested jumper. He has got to be the most over rated player in the NBA right now and no argument will change my mind about that. He is ols has logged more minutes than any other active player other than Shaq and he is at the end of his career and he is gonna kep getting worse from here on out, you wait next season he will have career lows in every category.

If they did that in the 4Q, they would have won the last game handily.

[no1here]

Lakers are worried knowing that they cannot win game 4. Confidence is a major factor and Thunder will have plenty going back to LA.

[KiDBaZkiT]

I agree and anyone who doesnt is just ignorant or didnt watch the game. Gasol makes 3 less FG than Kobe and shot 17 less FG's than Kobe, WHAT A DISGRACE!

Its Joe Collins from AxMen.

Dont think so
