LA Lakers vs Oklahoma City Thunder Game 1-Western Conference

LA Lakers take a "L" in the first game with Oklahoma City Thunder



The Lakers just didn't have enough offense to pull off a win last night

To no surprise this game and the series was going to be tough for the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers right now just don't have enough shooters to contend with the Oklahoma City Thunder especially with their main shooter sitting on the bench with a series ending injury; Luka Doncic

Who will step up for the Lakers Rui Hachimura he had just a modest 18 points Deandre Ayton had only 10 points this is just not enough offensive power against Oklahoma City Thunder shooters. Lebron James needs help he can't carry the team by himself. 

While the Lakers defense was good all thing considered they managed to keep Shai Gigeous-Alexander from having an explosive game, they still needed more rim protection against Isaiah Hartenstein he was able to have his will inside the paint. 

This is just game one and I know Lebron James he will be more aggressive in the next game and I know he probably snapped on everyone in the locker room so I suspect they will be more assertive and prepared for game 2.
