Grizzlies may be out of bullets, those 2 missed layups freakin hurt...

In this game, it's crazy to say with a minute left...but that should do it.

Memphis just choked away 2 easy easy opportunities for points, and OKC was able to extent the lead.

What a crazy game, and what an awesome series so far.

after watching the Ags lose that 5-OT game, it feels good to be on the other side of a marathon classic

Its understandable if both teams are drained when they go back to OKC. Home crowd might dictate who gets third win.

mission accomplished... get a win in memphis.

would have been nice to win both, which probably should have happened, but the series is evened up and we now need 2 wins with 2 games in OKC

would have been crazy for durant to mention the 2-OT game against the Ags where he and Acie had a memorable showdown

Tough loss for Memphis but time to rebound back in OKC.

randolph shooting a hair over 30% the last 3 games (on 20 fga per game)... OKC seems to have figured him out. time to put a leash on conley

great insight into the struggles OKC is having on offense, and tries to paint a clearer picture of the westbrook-durant dynamic

quote:
When Durant did cut or Scott Brooks did run a play designed for Durant, Westbrook was willing and able to get him the basketball. Russell Westbrook does have a tendency to try and be “the man” from time to time, but the amount of times it does actually happen is far less than the perception. In the plays above, how many times did Westbrook ignore Durant? Bad shots? Some, but Durant wasn’t open on any of these and Westbrook was forced into these poor decisions. If Durant wants to have success late in the postseason against tough defenses he has to be more willing to work off of the basketball and he needs his coach to design better plays.

Hard to top the last game (really the last 2 games) in this series. What can we expect tonight?

I can tell you that this series has been thoroughly entertaining and refreshing watching these two small market teams lay it all out there night in and night out. And this playoff run of the Grizz will do wonders for this franchise. Great series so far...

^They must have madame cleo on staff there or something lol

As far as tonight goes I saw the spread is -6.5 in favor of the Thunder obviously, I placed a little wager on it and took the Grizzlies +6.5 although I do think the Thunder will win.

Tight game as expected.

Man, I love Battier's hustle and attitude and defense, but man he's a liability offensively. Missed an easy layup, a short jump hook, and a wide open wing three which used to be his money shot.

Geez, the Grizz have missed at least 4 or 5 shots from point blank range, 3 of them on that last failed offensive possession and now they are letting the Thunder extend a lead just before halftime.
