Grizzlies by 20+ still, tbh.
Are you intimating that he's just pouting? He's got no explosion. Hurt his knee in game 5 and it's definitely slowing him down.Quote:

To have a chance they would have to tell Reggie Evans to go Mike Tyson on Gasol's ear or something.Quote:

Great hustle by Blake, he is showing some heart this quarter... game certainly isn't over yet!
Also yeah, wtf was that clear path foul? I have never seen that called when the offensive player is inside the 3pt line on his offensive end.. I don't know why Van Gundy was agreeing.
Not a jinx since I think the Grizzlies are a better matchup for the Spurs, fwiw.Quote:

What sucks is that a 75% CP3 is still probably a better closer than anyone on the Spurs has proven to be. Then again, the Spurs aren't proven closers since they've been curbstomping fools for a few months ... but still.
Clips tie it. If they get a big 4th from CP3 they might steal this! That'd be nice, because we'd crush them in 4 or 5.
:lol Jordan makes an impact for the first time this series ... and that's when Del Negro decides to go to his bench.Quote:

Pop would coach rings around Vinny.
The best defense on these Spurs is in the middle. And it's pretty difficult to beat up a team that has twice as much depth as you, tbh.Quote:

No way we're seeing a 75% CP3 tbh.Quote:

considering that RJ is gone for Jack and all other improvements, and the interviews from Diaw where he talks about the team talking revenge, it would be more physically demanding but much more rewarding to beat them (which barring injury they will). But there is the B2B issue, and that makes the clippers the safer matchup.
Totally, and I think you're over-rating Mayo. He can occasionally get hot, but he can also be a massive liability.Quote:

I can't believe Memphis isn't winning big right now.
Pop will run Speights through about 200 pick-and-rolls in the series. Guy is Drew Gooden-esque defending it.
