Re: Western Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread
True in today's NBA it could have been a flagrant but I think since he was going for the ball they let it go.Comment

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread
IDk about a 7 game series with NO right now. Yes they have played us tough in this series but this isn't the first team to do that in the last 3 years.
We've been in this situation before and the only team to win a home game against us to force a game 7 was houston in 09. Then we proceeded to beat Denver in game 6 at Den, when everybody said the same thing "Den plays great at home and has given the lakers all they can handle". We followed that by closing ORL out on the road to win the title.
Last year everybody said OKC would win game 6 at home and force a game 7 with the same words and we closed it out game 6. The Utah series was a sweep so not counting that. Then in the WCF against Phoenix, everybody once again predicted a game 6 win for them at home and we closed that out in game 6 as well.
Now can NO win game 6 and force a game 7? Absolutely they can but I don't see it happening.
You make it seem like everyone said Denver was taking LA 7. I clearly don't recall that.
I clearly don't recall "everyone" saying OKC would win game 6 same thing with PHX.
I'm not sure where you go that from.
I'm just talking about this particular series. Just the vibe I get from the team. Reminds me of the Houston series that went 7. Only because Houston was missing a star and had a great fanbase. Undersized bigs but scrappy bigs. PG killing. Lowry/Brooks = CP3
This series has nothing to do with past ones. Nothing. Completely different. If it doesn't go 7 big deal. It's just a feeling I have."on hoping there is a PSN flash sale before Valentine's Day"
Man there are no flashers... now what are we going to do for vd
yea but will they take psn cards

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - First Round Discussion Thread
Appreciate the responses, always been very interested. Certainly can't disagree with why you feel the way you do.
How do you guys think, on the assumption the Grizzlies beat SA, would fare against OKC?
Also, another question: lets say it was Dallas, LA, Memphis and OKC in the semis...Would you see yourself or perhaps others rooting for the Grizzlies? From an outsiders point of view, are they a likeable/rootable team?
I'd imagine they would get a nice following and be the sentimental favorite by anyone not in LA (or whomever else made it to the WCF) or Seattle.Comment

Some of Nene dunks are just so enjoyable to watch. He has had at least 4 or 5 of those type dunks in this series."Ma'am I don't make the rules up. I just think them up and write em down". - Cartman
