Splitter has guarded Z-Bo well this season. I think the number was 14.8 ppg or something.

Agree with Kenny Smith being the best, although part of that is just that he is well spoken. Chuck occasionally makes a really good point but doesn't always express himself wonderfully.

T-Mac time.

Never a good sign as a Spurs opponent when T-mac makes a sighting.

Did they say that pregame? Missed it but still meh. People can bet on Splitter if they want. I would take Z-Bo or Gasol.

Duncan mostly guarded Z-Bo though this game. Z-Bo needs to turn it up for them. I think Hollins will have to try to abuse Splitter/other big guy more too.

The grizzlies never shoot well though so I don't see that offense getting any better as the series goes on. They will have to make major adjustments on defense if they hope to have a chance this series. Defense is their bread and butter and they just look lost out there on that end.

Randolph sure does get away with a lot of pushing and grabbing. I noticed during the Clippers series he grabbed Griffin just about every play, but, like Garnett, he'd foul out in the first quarter of every game if they called it.

It's the same reason why a lot of coaches tell their bigs to stay in the paint for longer than 3 seconds. The refs will call it once or twice but they don't want to keep calling it (and are even instructed not to call it) so that play doesn't stop every 5 seconds. Yeah you'll get a few called on you, more than you would otherwise, but you also get away with a lot more than with players who don't deliberately stay in the paint longer than they're supposed to.

I missed the game but I agree - Magic is a moron lol. Sometimes I wonder if he played on all instinct or he truly knew what the fuck he was doing.

I wonder if Magic tries so hard to be liked by everyone, he just says the most generic things possible.

He did say Westbrook was the worst playoff point guard ever last finals.

It was only a matter of time for the Spurs to have a game like this, they were so cold for most of the GS series. It'll still be a really tough series, Randolph be such a non-factor again. Still Grizz have to do better at guarding the perimeter.

Yeah there were many instances where not even the weak side corner wasn't defended, it was the other guard right next to whoever so it was an easy pass to an open 3. I don't expect that to happen again.

It's Joe Morgan syndrome - proof that greatness can be achieved by any frame of mind.

Gogo HEAT :D :D

Would be nice to see a Spurs-Heat final but I feel like neither of the WCF teams could really hurt the Heat that much >.<

He better just stay in LA where he can play with Pau to great success. I don't see any other setup on his prospective teams that has a player like Pau to feed him in the post. He still deserves a max contract easily, but he needs help to flourish.
