Four on Five

It was a miracle the Thunder beat the Lakers in game two.

Up seven, if the Lakers get the ball in bounds, they win going away.

You have to hand it to the Thunder coach, putting Durant on pooped Kobe. And Harden was again the best player on the four.

But with Perkins in there, the Thunder is playing four on five on offense. He is so unsure of his shot, he passes the ball away from possible dunks.

What Bynum did to him in game two should have been illegal. Bynum was plus 18 in that matchup.

You can play four on five on offense during the regular season against bums.

Now it gets tougher.

This series goes seven games.

It's on.

Now we see who is what.

Who do you have winning? The first couple of games for the Dallas series was close and that was a sweep. Not sure this goes seven although as a Laker fan, I'm all for it.

Probably OKC in 7. The Yahoos will be out in force. But people are mistaking luck for skill in game two.

Can the Thunder beat the Spurs if they make it to the next round? I'm not sure. The Spurs have looked very good. Great passing, relying less on jump shots than the Thunder, great defense.
