Going into the Grizzlies-Spurs series, I thought the Grizz had a bit of a chance to beat the Spurs. I was amazed that they actually did it though. And I expect the Grizz to beat OKC as well. I've always thought they were good but when I look at their roster, It seems like these guys don't have any weaknesses. They're athletic at every position, they're relentless, they can play defense, and they get great inside scoring from Z-bo and Marc. And on top of this Rudy Gay isn't even playing! What a stacked ing team, how the are these guys the 8th seed? This isn't even fair. I'm just amazed at how good these guys seem to be, what is the key to beating this team?
They had a horrible start to the season and then tanked to get an easy first round matchup. They were exactly one game worse than the Spurs in the calendar year 2011 of the regular season, and something like 2-2.5 games worse than LA in the time period (LA had the best only-2011 regular season record in the west).
Because they are tanking POSs. But, I hope they win.
When teams are clicking, playing in rhythm and everything is running smooth, it's often hard to find weaknesses on the team. It's when the other team also gets going that you see the weak spots.
They turned things around after their "best player" was put on IR for the year.
The Spurs were static at #1. Hollins caught a hanger and isolated 'em, did his homework, plotted their demise on paper & dictated it to his charges.
Sheer genius.
I think Rudy Gay sitting out has a lot to do with it. That team has really come together and they play like they all have each others backs. Kinda remind me of the 2004 Pistons.
Good morning, lover.
good morning you big pedophile got
Lee, just laughin' like .
Uh, uh. I made a vow on 8. & I'm holdin' to it.
yeah, we know... you have a fetish for 8 yr old boys. that's no surprise to anyone around here.
Another one who thought the Mavs whippin' us would be enough.
Uh, uh. A wink is as good as a nod to a blind man.
tee, hee.

How hilarious would it be if the Griz took out the Lakers in the 1st round?
Feelin' strong, eh? You'd better finish it, or, Cubby be waitin' on ya's.
They won fewer games than the other seven playoff teams?
They tanked to get the 8th.
Duncan was mad about it, set his jaw, yelped a couple yelps, then just rolled over and let Hollins rub his tired old bag.
Just like that.
Just like that. No denying that Timmy got his ass handed to him.
MemphisTANKED period.
Tony Allen suddenly becoming Rodman, Zbo playing like Hakeem, Marc like Pau of 09 and even their scrub PG is playing like Isiah. That is no 8 seed. they will expose the mavs jumpshooting btw
Its the Western Conference, thats how. Spurs weren't exactly your typical 7th seed last year and they weren't even trying to tank
All hail the Southwest Divison
