 The young Laker team recently took a surprise to the NBA world, they beat the Oklahoma City Thunder. Durant, Westbrook, Ibarca, yeah, that thunder. The Lakers managed to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder, I mean they haven't won the series but you know, they won Game 1, they won Game 1 by 8 points. So now I bring you to game number 5. Game number 5, well, I'll explain why it's game number 5 in a minute. So here it is, Game 5, Oklahoma City Thunder facing up against the Los Angeles Lakers. The O.K.C. crowd is going crazy for this game as the Thunder are looking to come back in this series. And what I mean by come back in this series, well, surprisingly the Lakers with his son White side, DeMarcus Cousins, Jabari Parker, Kobe Bryant, and DeAngelo Russell, well, get that out of here. They're actually leading the Thunder, they're leading the Thunder not by two games but by three. The Thunder have no chance in this series for some reason. The Lakers are getting blocks on one end and fast breaks on the other end and that's exactly how the Lakers were running this game. That's exactly how the Lakers were running this whole series, Durant was getting upset and Westbrook was taking the worst shots in the world. Durant gets blocked by Hassan White side right there and that starts us off in game number 6, excuse me, game number 5. The series is a Laker lead, 3-1 so here it is, Hassan White side gets the mid range shot, makes it a 5-4 start to the Los Angeles Lakers, Westbrook gets the O.K.C. Thunder starting with an easy mid range shot, Kobe Bryant gets a quick steal from Westbrook and he feeds it off to Hassan White side who gets the easy lay up. Kobe Bryant, he played quite well in this series, I won't even lie to you. This man Ross of Westbrook, I don't know what was up with him but he decided to take some terrible shots in this series as Boogie goes all the way for the slam dunk. Westbrook, another three point shot man, that's not his game. Westbrook needs to attack the basket and go to the ring, Jabari's game, I mean we all know that, that's a three point shot right there. Now Jabari Parker, he's fully healthy, in the last episode that I showed you guys, well he wasn't too healthy as Hassan White side gets another block to add to the collection. That's three already for Hassan White side and with two seconds left in the shot clock, Durant just says, I'm not worried about that as he hits the mid range shot right there. He goes inside and with a crazy spin move, he makes this lead a four point lead to the Lakers. Make it a 12 point lead as JR hits the mid range shot making it a four point lead right now. JR Smith, he's been a really clutch player in this series and he's been a really clutch player in all games this year really for the Lakers. JR Smith, he's doing mad work on the offensive end and he's surprisingly improved a little bit on defense as well. We could have had a massive lob right there, unfortunately we missed the lob as Durant goes all the way and slams it down on Alex Land, pretty much ending the first quarter. Just wait, JR Swish from downtown you already know, look at those cinematics right there. So JR Smith ends the first quarter and the Lakers are up 23-18 in the second quarter right now. DeAngelo gets a really nice pass down to Hussar White side who gets the and one. Hussar White side and Boogie Karsens, they have a friendship, when I first traded for Hussar White side, the friendship wasn't quite there. They didn't really know how they were going to play with each other. I mean Boogie was a guy that just dominated the post and then he got asked to play power forward making Hussar White side run the center position. Hussar White side and Boogie Karsens, yeah like I said they didn't get on. And then one day they just clicked, they both figured out how to play with each other and now they're the greatest one to punch of the current era. Surprisingly, I mean yeah maybe I'm overrating them but in this series man these guys are dominant, they're the beast towers as I like to call them. So at the half, the Lakers are leading the Thunder 37 to 33. It's a pretty even match right now. So we skip to the last quarter, 56 to 56. It's a tied game going in to the last quarter. This quarter is the elimination quarter. If the Lakers win this quarter, they eliminate the Oklahoma City Thunder and they advance to the next round. It's going to be crazy, it's going to be a crazy quarter. Terrible shot by Westbrook. He hasn't had a very good shooting night tonight. I mean does he ever? Especially when he's shooting as Kovie hits that three point shot right there and back to a one point game. Hussar White side gets the slam dunk to go. It's a three point game with five minutes remaining. The OKC Thunder fire right back with a three point shot from the old Denver Nuggets player. Boogie all the way, slam dunk back to a two point lead for the Lakers right now. Four minutes 14. DeMarcus Cousins gets another block and we feed him down low. Just kidding. Jabari from downtown gets a three. It's a four point game, three and a half minutes left to the Los Angeles Lakers. We finally feed DeMarcus down low. It's about the only time in this game. We haven't really needed two yet, but we do. He gets the miss, gets his own rebound, puts it up and gets fouled. And with one and a half minutes left, he needs to make these free throws. He gets the first free throw to go, but unfortunately he misses the second. The Thunder have the ball right now Alan taking the ball up. He should have fed it off to Russell Westbrook. He decides to go for a layup and you know offense is not Alan's game. So I have to fast forward this because this took forever. We asked for a screen. We couldn't get the screen and finally a screen works. We get DeMarcus Cousins an easy mid range shot right here with a feed from Hassan White side. That just shows you the chemistry that these two big men have. Westbrook sizing up DeAnthor Russell mid range shot. He finally gets one to go. It rattles in. 69 to 73, 40 seconds left in this game. Kobe Bryant, we look for him. We get the ball to Kobe, feeds it up to Hassan White side, gets the slam dunk to go. It's 75 to 69, six point lead to the Lakers with 37 seconds left in this game. Six point lead, here it goes. Westbrook all the way, gets denied by Hassan White side. And that's his sixth block of the game. Look at this block by Hassan White side. He says get that out of here. And with Alan failing to Marcus Cousins, he's going to the line for two. This is to pretty much seal the game and seal the series for the Lakers. Boogie hits the first freeze throw. It rattles home, 76 to 69, 30 seconds left in this game. He gets the second one to go and it's an eight point lead to the Los Angeles Lakers. All they need to do is play some defense right now. The thunder, get a good look with Durant, but he misses the turnaround jumper and with Boogie on the boards, that's pretty much the game right there. All we have to do is dribble it out. We feed Kobe Bryant and we bring it out right now. We're just wasting the shock block. There's no reason to get an easy score right here. We just have to call an isolation with Kobe, get out the way. This is Black Mumber time. He gets Durant on a crossover, goes all the way, hop step jumper, draws the contact, no foul, but he gets the layup to go. And with a 10 point lead in game five, the Lakers are advancing to the next round of the playoffs. And that's what I'm talking about. That is what I'm talking about. The Lakers are doing work in this series and we're going to the next round, man. 10 point lead in game number five. And look at JR Smith, he's pretty happy with himself right there. He knows he played quite well in this series as he has all of these playoffs and in fact, the whole season, Durant shot 17 shots, but Westbrook shot 22 and made seven of them. He shot a terrible percentage and shooting over from six from downtown really cost the Oklahoma City Thunder the game. The Marcus Cousins dropped 18 points and 13 rebounds. Jabari dropping 16. Hasan White said with 14, six and six blocks, JR Smith had a nine point game with eight minutes. Kobe Bryant got eight points, three rebounds and nine assists. This was a great game for the Los Angeles Lakers. So let's see who we're facing up against in the next round of the playoffs. Will it be the Pelicans or the Clippers? It's the Clippers. So in the next episode, it will be the Battle of LA. The Clippers versus the Lakers with Chris Paul, JJ Redick, Thaddeus Young, Blake Griffin and DeAndre 3000. Doc Rivers is still their coach. It's going to be a crazy series. I hope you guys enjoyed the video. If you did, leave that like. Let's see if we can reach 500 likes. I'm out. Peace.
