Lakers forced the Thunder into an off night — and still lost. What can they do?

OKLAHOMA CITY — In a lot of ways, this was a worst-case scenario for the Los Angeles Lakers. Game 1 had come and gone, and they sat in the locker room afterward thinking about the opportunity that was there and the ways it got fumbled.To be clear, the final score wasn’t close. The Lakers lost 108-90 to a better team that had a better night. And, multiple team sources said, the Lakers understand that their best night won’t be good enough to beat the Thunder on anything close to Oklahoma City’s best night.Advertisement
