    No way. Perkins will get into Bynum's head. Bynum will throw punches. Ejection. Gasol will cry. Perk and Ibaka will get all the rebound. Simple sequence.

    Sometimes it's not about logic.... but I also think Lakers will have to be on steroids and whatever bloodlust medication

    Shaq just referred to Ibaka as "the other guy"

    Seriously Shaq you can't remember his name?

    Shaq is pathetic. The thing that bugs me the most about Charles is he clearly doesn't watch a lot of NBA basketball during the season. Seems like he only watches national TV games. Shaq is even worse, says some really stupid stuff and embarrasses himself.

    The Thunder are a jumpshooting team. We all saw Kobe(in the 4th Lawson - 0 points) and MWP batten down and play some good ole lock down defense. So, the Thunder are gonna have to make some tough shots in this series. Perkins isn't healthy and Ibaka is a poor defender although he does get blocks. It's gonna be a slugfest. LA in 6

    Thunder in 4 or 5. They are out for blood after what MWP did to Harden.

    90% of the "supposed" analysts only watch national TV games.

    Just like Steve Kerr tonight. He said when the Lakers acquire Sessions, they lost shooting b/c they lost Fisher. I was like, is this guy serious?

    who's gonna guard Harden? And if you think MWP can lock down Durant, than Sefolosha can lock down Kobe...

    I just hope Perkins is healthy and the Thunder aren't rusty.

    And wow, a back to back (G3 and G4).

    I hope Shaq is right on with his comments (Durant playing big to prove he belongs among the best like Kobe and Harden ballin).

    Haven't been keeping up with the Thunder. What's wrong with Perk?

    He hurt his left hip. Perhaps a pulled/sprained muscle.

    Metta on whether he'll shake James Harden's hand: "I don't shake subs hands." Fair enough.

    Fisher didn't have shooting. But Session is just as bad in playoff.
