My take on the Grizz:
Memphis is a really good rebounding team, which has been a problem for the Spurs. Same for teams with a balanced front line and two legit bigs, and Memphis possesses that. Memphis does a really good job at forcing turnovers namely because they have a wealth of above average to great wing defenders.
They also play very smart and disciplined basketball. They run their offense in a boring, repe ive fashion, but because of that, they execute.
OJ Mayo is an x-factor, but he has struggled all year. But maybe a playoff game will get his blood flowing. He has talent. They are also very physical. Every team that plays them knows they have been in a fight.
It will be interesting to see how they react to their first playoff together.
grizzlies are also the lakers' farm team so expect a very physical series.
My word: Tony will dominate the playoffs especially this series simply because they don't have anyone to guard him. sure they got battier and tony allen as great defenders but I doubt they'll use them on tony.
Told you so...Pop playing starters in a meaningless game = first round exit and joining Dallas as the only #1 seed to lose a 7 game series in the first round.
Spot mutha ing on...
me for not flying to Vegas to put money on this...I could have been a rich man, this pick was so obvious...
I wish I had been wrong or at least put money on my prediction...this was an easy call to make though.
