Los Angeles Lakers 116, Oklahoma City Thunder 104.
Probably not the best game to use as a barometer for Oklahoma City’s playoff potential.
Not much went right for the Thunder on Monday. A team that entered the game with the NBA’s third-best offensive rating shot less than 40% from the floor. The NBA’s fourth-best defensive team allowed the Lakers to shoot 51.2% from the field and 47.1% from three. The team with the NBA’s second-best net rating fell behind by as many as 25 points and didn’t lead for a minute in the second half.
