Nick Gallo (okcthunder.com) recaps last night’s 107-100 win over the Lakers: “After halftime, however, the shots just wouldn’t fall for anyone on the Thunder, most of all Westbrook who ended up just 2-for-18 from the field after three quarters. The Thunder as a whole went just 5-for-23 in the third, getting outscored by 6 in the period by a Lakers squad whose reserves made timely buckets late in the quarter. Maybe they took the Lakers’ small burst to end the third as a challenge, but the Thunder’s reserves delivered an even more potent counterpunch to start the final frame.
