 So when the first round playoffs we were up against the Golden State Warriors and Surprisingly the underdog Lakers actually won the series We beat Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors in a seven game series The challenge to the NBA finals does not get any easier. We're now facing up against Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook Two beasts in the NBA Now if you don't think they're any good, we'll take a look at this in 2014 Kevin Durant won the MVP in 2016 Kevin Durant won the MVP and in 2017 Russell Westbrook won the MVP and it's crazy. The series will be challenging Round two action of the NBA playoffs about to get underway Tonight, we'll see the Los Angeles Lakers playing against the Oklahoma City Thunder in their house Chesapeake Energy Arena Looking at the Thunder they enter the conference semi-finals looking very tough a clean sweep and round one They're hoping to carry that momentum into game one tonight So here it is round two up against the Thunder the Lakers versus Thunder here Oh, the lake is starting five at the five. That's on white side at the four boogie Demarcus Cousins at the three the injured Jabari Parker who yeah, he's still injured in this series Unfortunately, and at the two Colby Bryant as I get dunked on and at the one DeAngelo Russell now if you guys haven't checked out today's video Do so. It's a pretty funny video the one I released earlier. It's a Jersey review video But I also have a slapping contest with my brother So be sure to check the video out. Now. Let's get into this my GM series. So It is the second round playoffs up against the Thunder. Kobe's going vintage on Sergei Parker right there He says hand down man down Westbrook feeding it off to Kevin Durant as he hits the mid-range jumper JR Smith, we run a play for him We see the mismatch on a Sun White side and we feed him down low And he was literally on a baby as he dunks all over Jody makes right there Durant He is the Durantula as he slams that one down The injured Jabari Parker is something else man He can't hit a shot because he is injured still which is unfortunate But JR Smith says, you know what? He won't hit a shot to let me hit a shot and I celebrate like I always do with a crazy I don't even know what that is, but that looks pretty sick right there 19 to 11 to end the first quarter The Thunder you already know these guys are gonna come back Alan takes a terrible shot though He misses that we give the ball up to JR Smith who feeds Kobe Bryant who gets the easy layup This man has lost a lot of his athleticism But a man that hasn't lost a lot of his athleticism And I don't think he will for a while and that's Ross of Westbrook as he gets that lab to go It's on it's only a three-point lead now to the Lakers as the Sun White side gets that done to go And you're gonna see throughout the whole of this video a Sun White side and DeMarcus cousins really step it up They're playing as proper big men. They're working as a team They're being the Beast Towers as I've named them before and I'll name them again The Beast Towers Westbrook goes all the way But gets denied by Boogie cousins and then Boogie feeds to Sun White so he gets that slam to go 33 to 26 one minute 20 seconds left in this game Boogie sets a nice green and then rolls for the Alley Ups slam right there as he gets that dunk to go JR Smith gets him with a crossover He flops and JR Smith with the easy scoop layup 37 to 28 and that ends the half 14 rebounds 11 assists shooting 55 percent the Lakers are looking good 37 to 28 start at the third quarter Alan Giving up to Kevin Durant as he hits that three and it's only a six-point game right now Kobe Trying to be throwback Pumson gets that midi to go 39 to 31 Kobe Bryant looks like vintage right there Durant putting on the moves Mrs. Ibaka comes out of nowhere with the flying Alley Ups slam gets that to go and then Westbrook draws the foul and Guess that and one to go so the Thunder are looking like they're gonna come back in this game Kobe Bryant feeds the Sun White side who gets his own board gives it out back to Kobe Who gets that three to go and as soon as we thought the Thunder we're gonna come back in this game the Lakers? Strike again Durant gets that midrange to go and the Lakers need to play this defense They need to lock down Durant and Westbrook if they do that they're gonna win this game to Barry Parker It's about the only shot. He's hit all day He hits this three and he gets that to go to barry's playing through the injury man I mean playing through an injury is tough especially in the in the NBA playoffs Westbrook fires right back gets that midrange to go It's only a seven point game make that a ten point game right now Durant gets the midrange to go a point game Lakers were up by eight points fifty to forty two and boogie's running the break as he gets that slam dunk to go Boogie's quarter is now another slam dunk and then another one right there Another one to the markets cousins and he's not done as he misses that boogie says get that Addy here not one not two not three not four But about five replays for DeMarcus cousins and then Kelly Ubre goes all the way for the slam and the Lakers are Looking like they're not gonna be stopped tonight 58 to 49 start of the fourth quarter the Lakers have all the momentum They're running a stupid full court press and you know when you run a full court full court press I should say we're gonna go work We're gonna go to work some whites that gets the alley right there get some and one right here and the Lakers are looking like they're Gonna dominate and come out with this win tonight 62 to 53 and has some white side. Hopefully it's gonna hit this free throw to make it a ten point lead in the last quarter He gets that to go But then the Lakers leader suddenly cut down to six doesn't even matter make it nine as the Angelo Russell gets that three point shot To go in real life. Actually, there's been rumors about Jordan Klotzing Leaving the Los Angeles Lakers. Apparently there's been a trade rumor. He's going to the Pelicans or something like that I'll keep you guys updated if that happens soon, but that's crazy Boogie slaps it down right there And so the Lakers have a strong lead with about three minutes left in this game Make it a three point lead with two minutes left Jabari gets the quick steal and he's waiting for someone to come down here It is the Angelo Russell from downtown He hits that three and that's a six point game with two minutes left remaining in this game Westbrook clutches hell gets that midi to go 69 to 73 It's a four point lead to the Lakers Boogie sets a nice green rolls to the rim and gets that slam to go Demarka's cousins has been dominating in this last quarter This game is going down to the wire Expect a crazy finish So the Thunder had the ball one minute 40 left remaining Westbrook feeds it off to Alan Alan right here had an open look, but he drives inside Gets the teardrop floated to go. It's a four point lead one and a half minutes remaining All the Lakers need to do right now is slow it down and get a good look Randall sets the pick right there He's rolling to the basket. Nobody's covering him and won For Julie is Randall the rookie The second-year player, but didn't play much in his first year goes to the basket draws the foul gets the finish and the free throw and We also give up another open look But Alan can't hit anything and we need one shot for the dagger with 50 seconds remaining They leave Jayar swish open as he knocks it down and that folks is the dagger Kevin Durant couldn't get the win neither could rush the Westbrook and the Oklahoma City Thunder Go down and lose game one as Kevin Durant is definitely disappointed with that result So the Lakers take game number one In the second round playoff series up against the Oklahoma City Thunder Westbrook dropped 16 6 for 9 shooting, but Durant dropped 11 with 5 for 15 shooting a one from 8 from downtown I could see why Durant was disappointed with himself So here are the Lakers stats boogie 22 points didn't get many rebounds He left them all to a some white so to go to double double 15 and 10 3 assist Kobe Bryant 12 points 5 assists J.R. Smith dropped 12 points as well now before I leave you guys I wanted to say this for some reason my stupid recording device the Elgato messed up And so I don't have game 2 game 3s game 4 Game 5 actually no, I got game 5, but I don't have game 2 game 3 game 4 So my bad on that one guys I don't even know what happened my recording device messed up so I can get I can show you guys game 5 But then I can't even show you guys game 6 or if it goes to a game 7 So I don't know what I'm gonna do, but I'll do something for you guys So in the next episode you'll see game 5 up against the Thunder not game 2 not game 3 not game 4 It's been Bonnie Smith.
