Memphis officially tanked for us tonight. A slap in the face

[Atl Spur]

Not scared of either to be honest........ If the spurs play spurs ball we win in 5 or 6

[baseline bum]

Bad memories, mostly. Losing 4 straight in 2012 and being out-hustled by them in 2016. Even the 2014 series was a slugfest, Spurs just got lucky to catch a throwback game by Manu and Tim in Game 6.

Obviously, OKC is weaker now that they no longer have KD...but Westbrook is playing at a nuclear level, Oladipo is capable of going off, and I don't want to see our frontline getting bullied by Adams, Gibson, and Kanter.

Although 2011 left a bad taste in all of our mouths, the Spurs have otherwise been 12-0 in the playoffs against Memphis since 2004. Personally, I'm fine with grit and grinding it through the first round against Memphis.

Westbrook is a statpadder who doesn't give a about winning games. It's pretty hard to argue his supporting cast is lesser than Harden's and yet Harden is going to take his team to around 55 wins. It'll be such a travesty if he gets MVP over Harden or Leonard.

I'd take Durant's 59 games over Westbrook's season too.

The reality is that not one team out West fears the Spurs. Kawhi will get double teamed and the rest of the team will be very easy to stop.

[QUOTE=hater;8956294]They sat most if their starters including Gasol in the OT

Official disrespectful tank for us

[/QUOTE
Maybe coney was hurt and gaysol was coming off injury. Not worth the risk when the spots are basically locked in already. the grizz and you!

This seems accurate.

[gambit1990]

this memphis team is different than the other memphis teams we've owned the past few years.

i don't see them beating the spurs. they do look comfortable against us though.

[gambit1990]

imagine this grizzlies team if they had maxed out someone else instead of chandler parsons.

they're playing without their second highest paid player.

Imagine this Spurs team had they paid $15 million to someone else instead of Parker.

[hater]

Imagine if they still had Barnes

Avoid at all costs

[Keepin' it real]

I'll watch every second of the series, but it will feel like 2003 against the Nets. That was some painfully slow basketball to watch. And if last night was any indication ...

preach.

[Arcadian]

We're gonna sweep those Memphis gots.

This. They'd best not get their hopes up. This isn't 2011. This team has Prime Kawhi.

[dbreiden83080]

Oh please. We will beat them easily..

[spursistan]

Pop also wants this match-up apparently..

[phxspurfan]

Shades of 2011, tbh. Let's hope Kawhi doesn't break his elbow on the last game of the season.

This was running through my head when Kawhi hit his head (again) on Conley. I was like oh no...

[gospursgojas]

Lol. Spurs in 5

[Spur|n|Austin]

HA, Spurs in 4 or 5. If you're scared go to church.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Spurs in 4

[Horse]

Well looks like Memphis and OKC tryed to win tonight
