    Sessions' strategy on WB is simple to understand: Just hope he misses.

    If you're guarding westbrook, you have to get into his head. He has a really bad temper and is easily frustrated. You could bait him into a tech or two or get him into foul trouble.

    Collison and KD are successfully guarding Bynum and Pau.

    That was one of those shots that needs a Mark Jackson outro.

    Yeah, as bad as Brooks is, Brown does seem to top him.

    Mike Brown took a page from Scott Brooks. He may have blown their last chance to win the game by sitting Kobe too long to start the 4th quarter.

    Still lots of time left.

    That's totally ridiculous too.

    Looks like this series is over. I'm shocked at how bad the Laker bigs performed. Shocked. Don't know how much it is on them and how much is on Brown. But it is what it is.

    Bynum can't finish anything. Just had a play he should've dunked it and Collison, who probably weights close to 50 lbs less than him, kept him from scoring. Totally ridiculous. Bynum is terribly overrated.

    Congratulations on picking the Thunder over the Lakers. I really felt like the Lakers would either win this series or at least run it all the way out to 7 games. Poor strategy, poor offensive execution, poor spacing, way too many runouts for OKC. No way you can beat OKC when you allow that many runouts.

    Although I'm enjoying the systematic beatdown of LA, it's depressing to think Houston will be behind OKC for the next 10 years...
