OKC Thunder at LA Lakers | Game Highlights | March 4, 2024

Away we go here inside crypto.com Marina thank you for being with us we know it is late back in Oklahoma City as Josh gy first shot of the game nicely done Glides in and Banks it home well they know he’s a pass and Chad hren once again acting like a wall in front of the rim Shay off balance going to bank it up and Bank it in plus the foul

Opportunity here for the an one and the Lakers are a team that likes to set up their defense like the Suns last night one counter to that is exactly what you just did get the rebound get out and run playing his 59th game of the season was the most since 2020 Chen

Holen spots up had some space for three always had practice he Paris laon just give me a little cheap C there a little bit hard off the three poked Away by dor and an excellent punch by L dor because that was going to be hren trying to go to work on D’Angelo

Russell off balance puts it up got his own Miss turnaround with the left hand and he’s going to get the friendly bounce Russell and drive can shoot and he got caught between two white jerseys SGA and Dort right on him end up becoming a turnover for the Lakers little things

Like that folks would make this team such a good team defensively as Josh giddy would get in there for another and coming out of the timeout Davis that wasn’t a shot it was a pass from Jaylen Williams lot of time here on the the shot clock Dort off the catch

And that three goes in missed his first knocks down his second and that’s a just leave it out for the next 10 years my goodness switch here Shay trying to front the pass and anticipated it Reeves left it short easy steal for SGA and the Lakers come up with it Reeds

Behind his back got by SGA now he’s caught in traffic and it squirts right out to Jaylen Williams now he’s trying to turn on the Jets LeBron on him too strong offensive rebound and gety with the put Backes just got to be physical and that’s what he was doing this is

Physical defense here poking that ball away loose chains being picked up off the floor times two trying to run that zone defense nicely done giddy once again he’s got six points here in the first quarter that one off a pretty pass from SGA how about this okay everybody got

Caught watching the paint drrive for the Lakers they’re tied up on the Baseline late to get back in the play it’s four on [Applause] four Raves oh he got stuffed by Isaiah Joe C a terrific defensive play Davis droing on bomo and lost it look like he might have dribbled it off

Of a foot Hayward trying to push here’s the pace that you’re talking about Michael and it leads to a case Wallace three Wallace continuing to make plays here’s a strip terrific strip because dribble move to get to the painted a area that fell is showing a lot of conf after 48 minutes of

Basketball Wiggins trying to defend LeBron LeBron on the drive Haze the rebound and then tried to pass out of trouble but he passed it right to job you just know to do that he did it on the playground when he were growing up trying to just keep possession as Chad hren gives the

Thunder some points from the Baseline look like he’s been doing and the Thunder gone cold here from the floor and case Wallace anticipates the second really out of rhythm on the offensive end another case in Wallace def flection that one is going to result in a steal he tried the

Deflection on the back side of haimura hamura the spin it looked like Ted hen once again came over and altered another shot that’s those kind of stops we were talking about just to get your offense started get you running in transition and just like that you get a transition

Three it’s just an eight-point game good job by Josh gidy tapping that over to SGA and see the Thunder are getting these types of plays defensively that’s disruptive to the Lakers and they’re going on the other end forcing 12 Lakers turnover so far getting 14

Points off the latest on that L here in OKC so Mike just a guy that’s really interested in being a team player trying to figure out exactly how he can fit into this group and merge on the same way that th is G give it right back SGA is going to

Pull the trigger from three and that one drops in SGA from downtown gets that three to go cam reddish on SGA trying to use another length Defender Shay leaning in got caught giddy is going to get that one to go that’s a that’s a really good shot there into the shot clock good

Defense Shay that time able to shed good defense from have not had a lot of sustained momentum on this end and Lou dorts got his 43 the sixth time in the last nine Games jdub on the step back tough shot and he got it up thr exactly partner and just like that you know you’re look at where the score is hren from the outside and that one finally rattles you see the Lakers again they got one or two guys almost every

Single time ready for that hit aead pass good steal that time by Shay coming over the top got numbers going the other way and it’s Jaylen Williams had it poked away but Chad holdr on the follow is right there that time it’s Reeves giving it up to Russell giddy open

Sideline counters with a thunder three right back that he and Gordon actually shoot after practice quite a bit together so he credited to thunder for just bringing in high quality guys like Gordon Gordon Hayward bismack Lakers now put reddish on SGA got a hard time getting away from him and that time he

Spins away that’s two consecutive made baskets or SGA field goal percentage on the season they’re shooting at just 34% D’Angelo Russell fought that Davis was going to keep cutting to the rim Hayward and the follow by the Game here has just been a collective off night offensively for OKC as hold’s going to go to the line he’s going to get a possible to start this quarter and just that’s just really a power move by threes m going back to the San Antonio game have we’ve seen over

The last three there have been a lot sometimes you just you play good defense and guys are making shots and we’ve seen that this congested Western conference it just keeps getting tighter like a pair of new [Applause] Shoes it’s good good little pocket pass kenr Over he was putting it up no matter what yeah he was you know that coming out of the timeout that’s exactly what they said too you know we’re going to just keep feeding the guy that’s hottest on the got in the bonus about that nice little tasty dish over the

Mike here’s a reason why City came into the game 42 and 18 those 42 wins guaranteeing a winning record well better last all right well maybe I can get Nick and Paris in on this as well but unbreakable record what LeBron is doing at over 40,000 points or averaging

50 points for a season in which and you know you get in really laate last night from Phoenix and that was a physically grinding game last night and you know mama said there’ll be days like this and it haven’t been very many days the Thunder’s one of those teams so we were

In this building yeah so just remarkable sometimes how things happen like that you know he obviously hit a a milestone with those points and I thought those threes in that first half kept the Thunder uh offense lit and it it was really you know uh uh just keeping them hanging around at that

Point to the Lakers agree I don’t hear crickets okay you said you agree okay good cuz I thought maybe I was going to hear crickets on that because you know why because a couple of guys have scored 70 points already 70 the the way that teams play defense

Sometimes yeah it might be more attainable than you think right absolutely but you know 70 points two guys in the history of the game come on Paris here’s a hint for you yeah and he was a high flyer went to North Carolina and spent started with the Toronto R

Yeah exactly uh it’s Vince Carter guys and uh back when I was like 10 years old I grew up in Durham Chapel Hill North Carolina and Vince Carter he dumped on me over at the Smith Center as Darin ham and Mark dnel little handshake near Center Court Mike

Muscala played in this building many times and that’s it final 116 104 p
