Thunder are 2-6 Under last 8 when their opponent allows 100 points or more in their previous game. The Lakers didn’t have their legs in Game 1 and is showed on both ends of the floor. They were simply run over by a faster team. They need to slow the tempo down and execute their offense. That’s easier said than done but they have no other choice. They can’t allow Russell Westbrook to go off and Mike Brown might be wiser to put another player not named Kobe Bryant on the speedy point guard.
