Lakers win this and they sweep. OKC looked crushed today, they will be finished if Lakers take this one.

Hopefully we come out like we did against Houston in game 3 last year or denver in game 3 last year. More than likely we'll get blown out , make a run and lose a close one. This team is way too predictable.

Here's to hoping Ron makes one more shot than he did lat time. Baby steps.

Key will be cutting down the TO's. Lakers also have to find a way to hit open shots. OKC is PAYING them to shoot. Bynum cant get going if the whole freaking Thunder team is crawling up his back. Lakers have to survive the early storm by the Thunder (pun not intended). Play smart and play poised. First road test in the post season.

Git r' done.

Seeing a loss here. Thunder will come out energized with their home crowd supporting them (that place can get loud) and trying to avoid 0-3. I can definitely see the Lakers playing without much urgency. At best, it's a close game like Game 3 of the first round last year, but can very easily turn into the spanking they gave us a few weeks ago over there.

Game 4, on the other hand, I expect us to win.

If this was last year, the lakers would probably lose this game and try to steal the next one. Well the lakers can suprise us all and take that 3-0 lead. heres hoping they do.

i expect a loss. artest continues to suck on offense, and we wont be able to hit any open jump shots. on the road, we need to hit open shots.

okla 102

I have a feeling that Kobe is going to be great in this game!

I expect a win here. This is where the pressure gets to OKC. They've been flying free and easy thinking no one expects us to win NOW they go home and HAVE to win. They have played 2 good games as a team. I expect this to be a bad effort for them while LO and Bynum re-emerge.

Kobe regaining his confidence is also something I think will hurt OKC. I think this is another game where we lead most of the way and pull away in the 4th quarter. Crowd noise doesn't save you this time of the season.

It's all about energy and effort as usual for this team. If we come out like we don't give a (bleep), then it's going to be a blowout for OKC.

This game's gonna be won or lost by Lamar! Ron has to do something offensively for god sakes already!! Can't just shoot 3's bricks!

I don't like this one day off travel schedule. I think this favors the younger Thunder. The bench has to really step up, especially Odom. We can break there spirit with a win. Go Lakers!

If the Lakers bring the same kind of effort that we've seen the last 2 games, then I think we're going to pull out a W. I just feel like the Lakers are going to execute better as the series progresses...
