A much worse Grizzlies team took OKC with Durant, Westbrook, and Harden to 7 games a couple of years ago.

    Pop still has to get his team out of the 2nd round as well. Warriors aren't done yet...
    I'm not saying they didn't have a fair chance to win the series I'm just saying that OKC made it very obvious that Memphis wasn't this monstrous squad.

    Now as for the SA-GS, Tuesday showed what the previous games in the series should have looked like. Everyone on the Spurs is getting the designed and desired looks but the shots haven't been dropping with the success they're used to. All the while GS has been taking circus shot after circus shot after contested 3, and have been hitting them. On Tuesday we started to finished the designed plays with regularity and the Warriors were getting punished for dribbling around and chucking the ball in the general direction of the rim.

      Not looking too far ahead because winning in GS is gong to be VERY tough....

      but the Grizzlies loss in 2011 is what influenced a lot of our roster moves & philosophy...will be interesting if we play

        Myself as well. In Toronto's defense though, he played pretty well down the stretch for them and they went around .500 with him I believe (which obviously isn't great, but it's better than they usually do lol).

          I would really love to see the Grizzlies get to the Finals this year. Gotta love the way they play.

              I can't believe none of you mentioned this. Durant should've drove! The line was gigantic and only had marc Gasol right under the rim. Would've been an and 1 for the win!!!

              hindsight is 20/20 but man that lane was huge.

                Its because either way he had a good look. It was a wide open shot, he wasn't doubled and nobody was in front of him.

                He just missed.

                    I'm not sure who started this "every fan in the building wears the same shirt" thing, but I'm over it. Doesn't look good on TV.

                      I watched tons of Warriors regular season games, and I swear I only saw Barnes go to the hole like this a handful of times. Now it's like he lives for it.

                          1. Just saw them call a moving screen on David Lee and had to do a double take to see that it was actually him on the court again.

                          2. Good job by Klay Thompson knowing how much time was left...

                              So nobody else has pointed this out? So I'm gonna have to be the one to say it? Alright. Joey Crawford is in the building with Timmay.
