    If Randolph sustains this level, the sky is the limit for the Grizz, Ibaka isn't going to slow him down, Zach will get his.

    It's Thunder's series to lose but man I really like the Grizzlies' chances, I used to dismiss them for underachieving but man have they come of age.

    great match up in this series - I'm rooting for the Grizzlies. Westbrook really turned me against them with his ego and what not in the Denver series. That and I want to see Gasol/Zbo against the Lakers front line.

    I am hoping sooooo much that the Grizz pull this off. I go to school in Oklahoma and I am surrounded by the flood of fair weather fans. I want them to be as miserable as me

    All I have to say is that the Thunder haven't seen defense played like they are about to see.

    How did the Grizz beat Thunder 3-1 during the regular season?

    Because the 4th game was after the Thunder traded away Green and Krstic, but before Perkins started playing.

    Haha...The Grizzlies have no one to stop Durant. Don't even say Battier because Rcoket fans already know how that went.

    yeah yeah. Grizzlies don't really have a chance. And you will see why your argument that the talent of the grizzlies is on par with the thunder is flat out wrong. Too bad they don't have gay though because that excuse will thrown around to. You do have a good team and they should get better these next few seasons, but the thunder are on another level.

    Why do people create threads without knowing how to put the right poll up?

    Memphis couldn't stop Durant in the regular season when he averaged 31 pts, 8 rebounds against them.......but they still were able to beat the Thunder 3-1...

    Grizzlies won 3 outta 4 in regular season, matchup problem for OKC?

    Interesting series for sure, think Memphis could surprise a lot of people.

    This is a tough one. This could go either way but the Thunders are better seasoned and have young legs as well. OKC in 6 but it'll be a dog fight.

    Looking forward to it. I really haven't watched much of the Thunder.

    Absolutely loved the last Memphis series.

    Its gonna be a fun series. Probably the two best young teams in the league.

    Kinda hoping the Grizz win because of Shane but all I want is a fun series.

    Grizz in 7.
