April 22, 2010 kicks off the third game in a playoff series featuring the Los Angeles Lakers and the Oklahoma City Thunder. With the Lakers up by two games in this conference series, the Thunder are looking to salvage their spot in the 2010 NBA finals. The Lakers, having won the 2009 NBA championship, seem eager to clench another title, while the underdog team from Oklahoma would have never imagined making it this far. If the Thunder have a chance of defeating the Lakers, Kevin Durant needs to step up his game. The game starts with the Lakers in possession of the ball. Number 37 makes the first and second basket.
