    3. zero chance in hell poole gets suspended no matter what

    I don't agree that Adam can't play in this series.
    I also still believe the grizzlies can win.
    One game is one game.
    It all depends on Ja's health.

    Also Zach Randolph got suspended for an "elbow" to Adams, incidentally that wasn't nearly as bad as what Poole did.

    But of course the Media are all sugarcoating the incident as incidental when he clearly grabbed the knee and pulled it, and did not get ejected from it so he should miss one game.

    Adams on defense would get completely slaughtered, he can’t move. Obviously poole should get suspended, obviously he won’t. Silver is the biggest warriors fan on the planet

    You realize that rebounds are apart of defense right?
    And the fact of the matter is is that Steven Adams has played in the league, how many years now? And you would think if he was so bad as you think he is, he'd be already out of the league by now.

    The grizzlies went through the entire season with starting Steven Adams and they have the second best record in the league. So you explain to me how that happened?

    Like I said, you are overreacting.

    Again, the reason why Steven Adams could not play in the Minnesota series was because he could not guard Karl Anthony towns, period.
    Not because they could put him in the pick and roll.

    there's a difference between regular season and playing the best playoff teams. Look at how much even someone like Rudy, who's by far the best defender in the league struggles

    The jazz didn't lose because of Rudy.

    It is because team chemistry and the fact that Donovan Mitchell isn't enough. He doesn't make his team better. In fact he may be the dumbest star in the league.

    You literally have no idea wtf you’re watching if you clearly didn’t see gobert was/is a liability. Everything opened up for Dallas bc of him and all their actions are based on his inability to guard in space and they don’t even have to worry about him offensively. They have no backup option bc whiteside poses the exact same problem gobert does. Ffs shut up about adams already and stop crying. You sound ridiculous with all your whining and laughable takes.

    You’re basically a Memphis version of insufferable warriors babies. You literally sound that bad

    This sucks. Even with the nonsense and the game 3 blow out, this series was easily the most intense and entertaining of the semi's thus far.

    I'm not ruling out Memphis winning/competing in game 4 but the game isn't nearly as fun without Morant.

    Oh yeah, the media is calling what Jordan poole did as "gamesmanship" but when it was the other way around with Dillon Brooks it was Dillon clubbed them over the head.

    No, it's not gamesmanship it's trying to injure a player and he did. He successfully did it.

    Jesus H WUT. I only disagree with you thinking the Griz had a chance and with your Adams take but if you read anything I post you know I dislike the Warriors. I'm rooting for y'all, asked other posters to give you a break, and you go nuts on me. Okay.

    Suns are still up in the series, and tied if they lose today, not sure why they are done. If anything Dallas has had some things go their way to even be in this position. I agree the Grizzles are 100% toast thanks to @what jinxing them LOL.

    I have never wished injury on a player before but I'm just saying that the NBA is walking a fine line right here because they are clearly favoring the warriors and if I'm in the grizzlies locker room and I can't win because of what they did to Ja with no review, I would seriously consider, as soon as possible, putting Steph Curry on the ground and or Jordan Poole and taking my chances.

    What are they going to do? Suspend them for the rest of the year or the their whole entire life next thing, I mean the NBA are not even going to review that play is sending a clear message to the grizzlies that you don't give a **** to us.
    So why should the grizzlies follow by their rules? I mean I put almost think about putting Steph Curry in the hospital.
