My concern as a Lakers fan is that Game 2 was a great chance to win the game because they had made adjustments that OKC hadn't had time to prepare for. Going into Game 3, OKC will be making adjustments to LA's adjustments that LA will not have had time to prepare for, giving them the advantage. Teams have to get the most out of small advantages like that in a playoff series, and the Lakers failed to do so last night.
I'm just hoping that being back in LA, where they have played significantly better all season long, will be enough to get them the two wins they need to tie the series up. The 2nd night of the back-to-back is going to be a really tough one for them, but they still have a shot with a roster that is still more suited to grind-it-out, physical playoffs basketball and with more experience.
I am pritty sure with the game they displayed yesterday, they will tie the series since, as you said, they play way better at home then on the road.

Woot sexy dexy is starting center today! INTERESTING! Let's go HEAT!

My God. I've been going around various internet comments sections [ESPN, etc], and OKC fans all around have been insufferable. I'm actually rooting for LA now @_@
+ Show Spoiler + Comments of the "Whatsup Lakers FA**OTS why doesn't Kobe sign with us oh wait we wouldn't give him space on our bench so F*you hahahaha" variety. I may have been trolled.
I'm pretty sure many of them are bandwagoners too. I mean, how many people here were honestly fans of the Sonics? I know of only one, and that was coz he was German and loved Detlef Schrempf too much.
Edit: And If you look at my history, I'm actually a Celtic Fan

That's a very, very stupid reason to root against a team. Every teams' fans are fucking awful on espn comments and most sports messageboards.

I have high respect for OKC fans. They are loving their team, you could see it yesterday. 6k folks outside the arena watching the game. But internet is just internet. It's not over for sure.

Especially the ESPN boards. Reading comments on ESPN makes my head hurt most of the time.

Love seeing arenas in a teams color! :D

Thank fucking god Rio showed up to play. Nice composure to get back into the game. Keep it up!
EDIT: Yeah baby that's what i like to see! Role players playing like they should. Floaters droping, nice movement. NICE!

LeBron's defense in Game 2 was not as elite as usual. He looked exhausted playing the entire second half and after the game he said it was "taxing" playing without Bosh. Miami's first 3 possessions in Game 3 were all very quick shots by Dwyane Wade. Looks like Spoelstra wants to get Wade going and scoring to lighten the load on LeBron.

Why are you saying they are OKC fans? From what you said, it seems to me that they are just your typical LA haters, and there are a LOT of those.

SOLID quarter! Let's get it rollin now kekekeke.
|
Got to love Ronny. Such energy of the bench. Bench already with 14 points. Good stuff happening for Heat.
|
Wade better come with guns blazing in the second half or this is going to be hard to win.
Edit: Wade first time in playoff career without a point in 1st half....
|
wade playing like a boss. lol
|
wow well that WASN'T and technical come on...it's playoff intensity...
|
Sigh. Bullshit technicals. If you're gonna hand one out, give one to Chalmers too for instigating it.
