    It's nice to see Memphis taste their own medicine, getting roughed up with no call.

    If you want to dish out, you get to be able to take it. The Rocket can learn a lesson , or two from this, take it to the Clippers.

    It's a turnover when Harden puts ball to the floor against the Clippers. He doesn't have the handles to be consistently good in that area when playing the Clippers.

    I didn't see the game. But blaming the refs for a blow out is silly.

    I don't know why so many people here are so salty about Curry and the Warriors. I have no preference which of these two teams win. I guess a GSW-Clippers series would be more entertaining. Those two teams hate each others. I can envision lots of confrontations.

    That's what I saw

    They put Bogut on Allen so he could sag off a crappy shooter and provide help

    Then pnr'd Z-Bo to death on the other end because his ass too slow

    It wasn't blatant. The biggest part of it was 3 minutes close to halftime there were a few calls that expanded the lead from 12 to 17 points.

    Then in the 4th quarter there were 1 or two calls when it looked like the grizzlies might get back into it at the beginning of the 4th quarter.

    It was REAL SUBTLE.

    It doesn't take much to shift the momentum.

    Memphis especially in game 3 just flat out punked the Warriors with physical plays. Great to see the Warriors just came out and refused to get bullied by the Grizzlies.

    Salty biased posters...If Warriors win it's because the refs helped them, If Warriors lose because they are a jump shooting team getting exposed. If anything, the refs need to clean up and stop allowing the Grizzlies to hibernate in the paint.

    yes thank you. They were clear momentum shifts because of series of bad calls.

    Pls Memphis I hate GSW with a burning passion. I hope flop master bogut has to resort to cheeky jabs about losses on twitter instead if game planning for the WCF.
