This was a hard-fought win for the Grizzlies, so props to them. They definitely didn't play like an 8 seed today. Spurs just need to regroup and eliminate simple errors. Oh, and make their free-throws. I'm not even going to start a Tiago/Gingerhate thread, its pointless.

But good game to Memphis, they were out there scrapping for it today.

I agree. They get credit for how they played and executed. They beat the Spurs, Spurs did not beat themselves.

Well, I hate to play the coulda-woulda game, but the Spurs definitely had much room for improvement. But yeah, props to Memphis for a great game. I wish we had Battier on our side of the ball. He's such an solid player.

Agreed, Memphis looked like the team with more poise and out executed the Spurs down the stretch. Great win for them.

They played to their strengths. If Manu is in the lineup with any health Spurs will win. If we are depending on Bonner 3's we are fucked.

I think coaching had a hand in beating the Spurs...so they did kind of beat themselves.

Buck Harvey: Blank no more: Memphis’ rise, luck (http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursnation/2011/04/18/buck-harvey-blank-no-more-memphis-rise-luck/)

Chris Wallace stayed behind in Memphis for Game 1. The general manager of the Grizzlies had a few things to do, such as work on a new contract for Zach Randolph.

So he’s watching the game Sunday afternoon, living and dying with every possession — when his satellite transmission goes out with about a minute left.

Wallace is searching for another broadcast, frantic with every passing second, until the game returns with 10 seconds left. Given what happened in that time, maybe nothing better describes the current status of Wallace and his franchise.

From a blank screen to the startling news.

You mean everything worked out?
