The Los Angeles Lakers showed something tonight they have not shown all season long and that was some resolve and it came from the LeBron-Less and Rondo-Less Lake Show running on 25 and Under and this might put them over the top!
After O.K.C. came out the gate firing on all cylinders and up 390-27 after one the Lakers got on their horse and in frame two went on a 40-24 run to lead at the break 67-63. That lead came from "A Tribe called Lakers Bench" led by Josh Hart (12 pts 10 rebs 5 ast), Ivaca Zubac (26 pts 12 rebs) looking like 7'5" Chuck Nevitt and Svia Mykhailiuk (7 pts) and that thrusted the Lake Show back into the game with confidence.
The Thunder Bench was non-existent in the 2nd as Thunder Starters carried the load on this night scoring 105 of the thunder's 128. Both teams played back and forth in the second half as it was Russell Westbrook's three free throws fouled on a money ball that sent the game into extras at 122-122. Yes Russ shot 7 for 30 for the game but its the impact in all the other areas as he still went for 26 points and thirteen helpers with nine boards.
#LakeShow 138 #ThunderUp 128 F/OT
It was the Lakers young stunnas 'Zo Ball (18 pts 10 asst 6 rebs) and Kyle Kuzma (32 pts 8 rebs 3 stls) that stole the show in Extras as 'Zo hit a huge money ball that shocked O.K.C. and the Regulators that started the scoring in extras and the young Lakers never looked back.
Paul George led O.K.C. with 27 points with eight helpers with Steven Adams going "Big" double-double with 17 points and fifteen boards and 4 steals. You don't think the NBA Game has completely changed both teams combined to shoot 94 money balls and its all about the Money Ball...
Lake Show moves to 25-21 and the "Regulators Report" O.K.C. falls to 26-18...
