Thunder vs Lakers Round 2 Preview.
The Lakers defeated the Nuggets yesterday in Game 7 96-87 so they will now face the Thunder in round 2. Game 1 is Monday at 9:30 ET and this series is going to be a good one. Metta WorldPeace will return after his elbow to Harden's head that gave him a 7 game suspension. Kobe came off an amazing performance last time he faced the Thunder. The Key to this matchup is Perkins and Ibaka vs Bynum and Gasol. The Nuggets with Faried and Mcgee showed that its not hard to shut down the two Laker big men and I think Perkins and Ibaka are better than both those Nuggets so if they can do what the Nuggets do and Durant,Westbrook, and Harden keep up their offensive ways (And Westbrook's great defensive play) the Thunder should win this series but Sefelosha/Harden have to shut down Kobe maybe even putting Durant on him because last time these 2 teams faced they went to Double-OT and Kobe was unstoppable. I will predict that the Thunder win this one in 6 games.
