gasol wtf are you doing, lmao

Crowd booing Parker as he leaves with a hurt eye, wtf. I'm glad SC2 crowds haven't become like that yet (or when they do boo, they get a scolding from the community).

It is just me or does some random Grizz fan keep trying to call T/Os?

Can't believe the Grizz couldn't even win one game this series.

It's very harsh. They got really close some games.

Blah, wish they could've won at least one game. They still did very well dispatching the Clippers and the not so Thunder.

Edit: And they better re-sign Lionel Hollins.

This might be as big of an indictment of post centered play as you can get. The teams were pretty evenly matched and there were some close games, but the Spurs could too easily clog up the passing lanes and neuter their most potent players.

I dunno what to think of the Grizz.

I still think they only made it through to the WCF because Westbrook went down. They desperately need and efficient wing on that team. They have arguably the best front court in the NBA but it really didn't count for much, as this series showed, if you don't have any shooters to space the floor. If Quincy Pondexter is your best shooter from range, your team has big problems.

I'm not really sure of the quality of assets they have to move but they need a guy like Wes Matthews to round the roster out a bit better. Whether or not that guy is available is another story. The Spurs really showed the Grizz's ceiling isn't that high.

And the epic homer in me still wonders what could have been for the Dubs if Curry and Bogut didn't go down. Judging by this series the Grizz weren't that scary of a prospect.

This series makes the Clippers look really soft in retrospect.

No, the problem is that the Grizz lack spacing. If a team can ignore 1-2 of your players on offense at any time (Prince/Allen) ofc you're going to have problems getting the ball into the post.

tonites game felt like there was no effort by grizz. the numbers would say otherwise but JVG was harping on their hustle the whole night and i gotta agree with him. gasol stopping to help parker was the cherry on that cake.

Yes, but most teams have to pick one.

Yea, the series showed an indictment of 1-way players (like the NYC vs. Indiana series, and all OKC series ever).

haha <3 sly, more like friendly jesting...but Duncan owned Z-Bo this series. That under-the-legs bounce pass by Ginobli was so sick.

I dunno where I said it but I had a feeling that the Grizzlies were not going to match up well against a team that had an actual NBA coach - a team that kinda sorta knew what is was doing 80% of the time.
