****Official OKC vs Grizzlies 2nd Round Series thread****

[tre2k4]

I wonder if the novelty of the Grizzlies advancing will produce better ratings than the Spurs would have.

It should

The Spurs' wild overtime Game 5 victory Wednesday night over Memphis received the largest audience of any game ever shown on NBA-TV

He should be ok once Yao and/or Mutombo get him right.

Traded for Shane Battier and Ish Smith @ the deadline.

SHOULD have been traded for a 96 Camry with NO AC.

Edit: Didn't include Demarre because........It's Demarre.

Dude has no heart nor drive. Maybe when the money is about to run out is when he'll get focus but right now .

Now that is how you finish out a game. You got a 9 point lead late in the 4th, you STRETCH that shit and make sure you control the outcome. Good job Memphis.

GAME 2 PREVIEW

Oklahoma City Arena, 8:30 p.m.

TV, radio: TNT, WRBO-FM 103.5

Series: Grizzlies lead the best-of-seven series, 1-0.

LINEUPS

Grizzlies: Mike Conley, 6-1, Sam Young, 6-6, Tony Allen, 6-4, Zach Randolph, 6-9, Marc Gasol, 7-1.

Thunder: Russell Westbrook, 6-3, Thabo Sefolosa, 6-7, Kevin Durant, 6-9, Serge Ibaka, 6-10, Kendrick Perkins, 6-10.

THE SKINNY

The Griz stole Game 1 and home court advantage in a game that likely will force the Thunder to bring more physical play and energy to Game 2. Memphis dominated the lane and forced 18 turnovers in Game 1, leaving Oklahoma City to figure out a way to take care of the ball and limit points in the paint. Who to watch? Conley. Since committing nine turnovers in the first two postseason games, he has turned the ball over just four times in the last five and has played five straight contests without committing multiple turnovers in a single game. He has put together a 7.5-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio during that span.

KEEP YO GRUBBY HANDS OFF KNICKS!

Zbo already stated he wanted Gasol to stay when he signed the contract. Why would he leave his team thats deep in the playoffs now to one that havent won a playoff game since he was 16 in 2001.

 

[ugk]

almost game time

 

[M.H.C.]

The inconsistency of the officiating sicken me. They wait till the 2nd round to let the big boys go at it. I hope the Grizzles punch the Thunder in the mouth..........again.

 

[yaBoi]

They are going at it and the refs are letting it happen. This is how basketball should be played!!!



Memphis got some very good talent with Z-Bo, Arthur, and Gasol as their bigs.

 

[yaBoi]

[Top-Cat]

Looks like Zach is acting up again. Sorry to here that.

 

[Cant Get Right]

Whats this about Zach showing up late?

 

[yaBoi]

kevin is pure

 

[pookie]

How can Nate Robinson go from getting burn on a team like Boston to not even getting to sniff the floor on the Thunder?

 

[Chitownheadbusa]

see how Westbrook comes down the court and DOESNT PASS?
Does anyone else notice this except me?

Thats why the Thunder wont win a title anytime soon. Nigga need to get his ego together.
Youre Robin nigga..not Batman
