On Friday night, the Lakers ousted the Thunder from the playoffs in dramatic fashion. It was a fantastic series to watch; the series' six games illustrated how different the two teams were and how exciting this Oklahoma City team is capable of being.
Our Lakers blog, Silver Screen and Roll, tips its cap to the Thunder and the Oklahoma City fans:
In searching my mind for final thoughts regarding this series, one word keeps popping to the fore: Thanks.
[...] The OKC crowd was so fantastic that they even shamed the Staples Center faithful into waking up two rounds ahead of schedule and providing a bit of home court advantage in the other direction for the pivotal game 5.
This post, which examines who the Thunder are, how the Lakers beat them, and the Jazz team the Lakers are facing next, is well worth a read.
