Q4
OKC 81 LAL 106
Garbage time makes the quarter long. But as I said, the Lakers needed to balloon this lead to get Paul George off the court and they got it done. Good to see that Bryant and Zubac got some action. I thought they worked well in the lineup together for a small sample size. Another great win to extend the win streak to eight games at Staples Center. The Lakers continue to be on pace to break their win total from last season. Stay tuned for the full recap.
Q3
OKC 66 LAL 83
Fitting end for this quarter with Hart tipping in a missed shot from Kuzma. The threes continue to work for the Lakers! Ingram, Hart, and Kuzma provided the barrage from long range to balloon this lead to where it is now. I can see that Paul George is getting tired from carrying this Thunder team without Westbrook and Melo. It goes to what I said before, PG will have his way, but the Lakers have to contain everyone else. That is working and it also helps that the Thunder are missing their free throws when they get to the line. Good, dominant quarter from the Lakers. Time to put this team away in early part of the 4th quarter to make sure George doesn't see the court the rest of the way.
