NLL Insider - Progress - LAL vs. OKC

by merencio, updated on Saturday, May 21 2016, 06:30 am EST

After a rough loss agains the Los Angeles Lakers in game 1 of the series, the Thunder came into this one a little bit morealert and active, finishing the first quarter with a 26-22 lead, which gave the Thunder fans some hope that an upset could be in the works. 

As fate would have it, the Lakers came out firing in the second quarter winning it 33-21 and reverting the advvantage into their favor. 

After the half, the Lakers came right out of the gate with another flurry of points in the third, winning 29-21, which, in hindsight, was basically where the game was won.

Come the fourth quarter, the expectations were that the famous 4th quarter comeback of the 2k engie would set in to try and balance out the game, and to a certain extent it was there, but it wasn't a massive one. OKC won that quarter 25-21, but it was too little too late.

In the end, this game wasn't as bad of a loss as the first one, but still the Lakers seem to be in cruise control at this point with comfortable wins so far with no Jonas Valanciunas patrolling the OKC basket.

There are rumblings that he might not be a go for game 3 either, which might make the outcome look bleak for the OKC side, but they are a resilient bunch and will fight till the whistle.

Mason Plumlee was the high point man for the Lakers with 20 and 17 rebounds and Jimmy Butler added 17 for OKC.

Game 3 promises to be good as OKC has their first home game.It will be at 10 pm this Saturday on NLL TV, be there!

See you next time
