You've got to hand it to the Thunder, they don't stop. An impressive rally late in the game resulted in a come from behind win for Oklahoma. The Lakers controlled the game until the end of the third quarter and then suddenly went completely limp on offense. Kobe went 1 for 10 in the fourth quarter, very un-mamba like.
With a boisterous crowd unrelenting in their support for the home team, the Thunder used their aggressiveness and speed to etch out a win. The Thunder had 22 more free throws then the Lakers and swarmed the paint again which resulted in LA settling for jump shots which they refused to make.
It's no surprise that Oklahoma won this with so much energy behind them and well balanced team effort. However I doubt they've rattled the champs who will come be looking for blood and believe me when I tell you Kobe won't miss in the next fourth quarter. Ever heard of the phrase don't poke the sleeping bear, well Oklahoma are poking fairly viciously and in the next game we will see if they've awoken the beast.
