I have a good feeling that should the Lakers beat the Thunder this Friday, they be in a great run. It'll be a major turning point. Nash will be back soon, Pau's knee will get better. Every one will play with chemistry.
Just watch.....game against the Thunder will make it or break it.
I say they'll beat OKC!
If Lakers beat the Thunder this Friday, major turning point!

I have a feeling they'll win this 1.

It will be simply because OKC is on a fricken tear right now. They going through everyone.
Its also on their home court, not to mention everyone dethroned them in the offseason as the "west" champion and they are going to take it to us. IF we win ill be the first one to eat crow and ill be very suprised. But im expecting a blowout loss.

Whether they win or not I won't be fooled into thinking it's a turning point. The Lakers have had games this year where you think it's going to turn around and then they follow those up with 2-3 awful ones.

Winning two games in a row isn't quite a turning point no matter what team you beat, but it'll definitely be a positive.

Uhm, beating OKC on the road w/out Nash or Gasol would obviously be a turning point.Winning two games in a row isn't quite a turning point no matter what team you beat, but it'll definitely be a positive.

I feel like Lakers should win because we have the players that can match up with them but anything can happen...

It would be a good win, but like others have said, even if they do, it won't sway me one way or the other looking ahead. A win would definitely peak my interest a bit though, but I wouldn't say it would be the beginning of a turning point. It couldn't hurt however.

I won't jump to conclusions after we win.
It's going to be tough.
Hoping they win though, lol.

it depends on HOW we do it.
But if we come out focused like we did in the 2nd half tonight and rebounding and playing help defense as well as the screen and rolls I don't see why not.
But if we come out the way we did in the first quarter we won't.

If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.
You should reach more often

Going to be tough, as it always is when playing good teams.
Biggest thing is to not go down big early like in the Memphis game. We went down, then outplayed Memphis the rest of the game but couldn't get all the way back.
Make Westbrook a scorer. OKC has faltered plenty of times over the past few seasons when he does too much. Limit transition buckets as well.
