Oklahoma City has far more players they can deploy confidently over the course of a game, with a deeper variety of skill sets to choose from. And now things get a little worse for LA, as Jarred Vanderbilt is expected to miss time after suffering a dislocated pinkie finger on his right hand. He had it wrapped up on Wednesday after reportedly receiving stitches, since the bone pierced the skin post-dislocation. Ewwww. Assuming Vando can't play, the Lakers lose some of their flexibility in the frontcourt, and even though he wasn't likely to play big minutes, his absence means everyone else has to play more... which only makes the depth disparity worse. So where do they go from here? And oh, the microscope on Austin Reaves is going to be INSANE in Game 2.
