    I live in Arkansas so Memphis is supposed to be the "default team" since we don't have one. Rockets are my #1 obviously but Memphis is easily my second favorite. Hard to dislike their guys...Lee, Carter, Conley? Gotta love em

    I think the Grizz will win this series. If they win tonight, I think they got it. Then the Clippers will win the West. Ugh.

    The Warriors need this a lot more than the Grizz do IMO too.

    They will never be this healthy again, the odds of them being THIS healthy again have to be nigh impossible.

    The grizzlies are going to be battling the refs, gs and everything to get this win. They need to be prepared to play 5 on 8 because that's what it's going to be.

    Sketchy line on this game, surprised Memphis is getting 4 points at home, especially given how the last 2 games have looked.

    C'mon man, it is essentially the same line last game. -4 or -5.

    You already know the refs are going to be biased this game. This is the nba, son. That's what they do.

    That is my biggest concern. Extra tight calls, especially on the perimeter. At least until Golden a State gets in rhythm while letting them maul our bigs inside.

    Expect Gasol and Zbo to be put in early foul trouble as well as get hacked on the other end with no-calls until they get frustrated and get techs. The NBA will move heaven and earth to ensure the Warriors win this series.

    Last game made sense, as people thought GS would bounce back from Game 2... but after 2 spankings in a row, I thought it would be adjusted a bit.

    game lines are generally the same in a playoff series as in game 1 and game 2 and then game 3 and 4, etc. just like how clippers game 4 was pretty much the same after we got our ass whooped in game 3

    plus I'm sure vegas is getting a lot of GSW bets as they can't possibly lose 3 in a row right?!!!

    Bomani Jones has been dogging the grizzlies out this whole series. He's got a personal vendetta against us or something.
