    Curry didn't let Austin Rivers dominate him.

    lol. Total homer predicted a Warriors sweep.

    I would be so happy to see Golden State lose

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed. At one point, you could almost hear him say, "B-b-b-but IT'S NOT FAIR!" All game, he kept going on about the Warriors and how they just have to make a few adjustments and they can win it.

    I think the Grizzlies will be better prepared for the Green/Barnes C/PF lineup next time. Warriors need to go with it because Bogut is such an offensive liability when the 3s aren't falling.

    Steph was off tonight but Barnes made up for it.

    The bottom line is if the Warriors aren't draining 3s, they can't win this series. Either they heat up or this ends in 5.

    1. Get Warriors in the bonus with 8 minutes remaining

    2. Call every touch call for the Warriors

    3. Allow Grizzlies to get mugged on their home floor

    5. Pray Gasol doesn't hit buzzerbeater bank jumpers

    Man the refs were really doing a number on the grizz in the 4th quarter. I wouldn't really say that the refs were trying to cheat the grizzlies given the fact that the first 3 quarters they let the grizzlies play.

    But they really were calling the game a lot tighter at the end.

    Yeah, that's messed up. We need consistency and get rid of super star-bs calls.

    Memphis with some nice D :eek:

    Good to see the sweethearts of the NBA cut down to size.

    It's sad that your team has to play good enough to beat both opponents:

    1. The NBA team they are playing.
    2. The referees.

    People hate on Barkley for the constant criticism about jumpshooting teams, but he's been proven correct so far.
