Lakers forward Ron Artest admitted after Thursday's Game 3 loss to the Thunder that the defending-champions got complacent.

"We just fell asleep. We probably thought we had it in the bag," said Artest. "In this game, especially, you've got to respect the possessions. ... You really can't take it for granted."

Los Angeles led Oklahoma City 10-0 early on, but the Thunder pulled away in the fourth quarter at a frenzied Ford Center.
