Grizz are good. They had the Thunder on the ropes last year, and may have won had Randolph not gotten suspended. That series is going to be good.
Warrior fans, discount the Grizz at your own peril. As it looks now, they will most likely be pitted against the W's in the next round. They are tough, disciplined, battle-tested and have the confidence to beat the Warriors. This thing could go 7 with the Grizz winning..
I'm pulling for the Warriors & hope Kerr has them ready, but I wouldn't mind seeing a good series.

Why the would you do that? As Spurs fans, we should welcome any possible threat to the Warriors.
not without a healthy lineup no..
even with a healthy lineup, at most it goes to six..IMO..
they can win, but it's unlikely...hopefully the long rest develops into rust with GSW and the grizz steal the first one...
the warriors can score in bursts even against the grizz defense. i doubt memphis' ability to be able to stay in the game when that happens
They were about to go up 3-1 in that series but as in a few games that series Conley choked, they had them on the ropes but it got tied up 2-2. I am shocked nobody remembers how bad he was choking at times in that series and he gets a pass as if nobody remembers. They were so damn close to pulling that series out, as you said the suspension late did them in but it never should have went to 7 IMO.
Oh no. I want the Spurs to show the Warriors how its done. The same goes for the Rockets. It will please me to no end to see the Spurs humiliate them and that bearded gimp.
Don't really see it. Dubs prolly take it in 5.
The Grizz will get better, higher percentage shots compared to the wild 3 pt slinging Warriors. Allen can hang with Thompson while Conley, Udrih and Lee can take turns on Curry. Of course, I'm getting ahead of myself but I think thats going to be the 2nd round matchup.
Really the only teams that stand a chance against the Warriors are the teams that can force a lot of Curry turnovers, force the Warriors to shoot subpar percentages in the lulls between their hot streaks, and score enough against their defense to maintain a 6-10 point lead. At the end of a close game you are almost certainly not going to be able to get stops against this Warriors team as currently constructed.
Memphis-GS is going to be like the Thibs Bulls against Lebron's Heat teams. The Grizz will keep the games close and even take one or two, but in the end they won't be able to keep up with the Warriors' offensive firepower. The Spurs are the only team in the league that stands a chance IMO, and I don't think they would even be favored. The Warriors will beat the Grizzlies in 6 and would absolutely demolish the Cavs or Hawks.
Conley just went down, Udrih has a twisted ankle...
just not happening, tbh
nevermind, looks like a broken nose... he'll probably survive
per par
Dubs will lose to the Spurs or Cavs (or Bulls if they get that far). Team is just far too undisciplined and they can be baited into going chuck happy. I also don't trust their defense outside Bogut and Green to a lesser extent.
Warriors will destroy the Grizzlies, tbh..Memphis just doesn't score enough, and Conley's injury is obviously a massive concern..
Houston and Memphis are being overvalued due to their terrible compe ion, so far..
Spurs are the only team that can beat Golden State, probably..
Yall doubt us but I've seen us do amazing things
No doubt here. Memphis comes to play and values possessions. Most disciplined team next to Spurs. Playoffs is a different beast and Grizz know how to play the half court game.
I'll be cheering 100 for Memphis, hopefully they pull it off..
If you guys were fully healthy I'd give you an outside chance, but not this broken-down Grizz team.
We're getting healthy, unforunately that NO series couldn't go longer.GSW bench is really overrated to me and just not that good imo. I feel like our bench with Jeff Green, Beno Udrih, Calathes, Koufus & Carter is better than Livingston/Iggy/Barbosa/Lee/Ezeli just because our defense can really stop those guys because none of them except for Barbosa is a shooter and he's erratic. Green and Beno are really difference makers, I expect Green to be on Curry because he did really stop Westbrook and his size could give Curry fits. Also TA should guard Klay hopefully he doesn't do stupid fouls.
Grizz are a solid PO team. The warriors are in for a tough fight. They can get away with chucking against lesser opponents, but the grizzly will gladly take that.
I really hope the Grizzlies can go back to owning the Warriors like they did the previous 4 seasons.
Yeah i was thinking about this today..
I really really want to see Allen on Klay...If they can limit klay to around 15 ppg, there's not a whole of other offensive creators for the warriors.
I don't know if Green is fast enough to guard curry.
