    If OKC loses this series... I wonder what their front office will do to their roster... aside from replacing Fish.

    Nah, Lin isn't that far off these 2 guys.

    When they lose this series, the filler pieces might get shuffled, but nothing drastic. Why would they? Perkins is great. :(

    This is my second day in the city of Memphis and I love that every where I go I see Memphis signs and everyone wearing Memphis shirts. Puts Houston to damn shame. Going to the game just to boo Fisher. Hopefully the arena will be as enthusiastic as the city has been. Go Grizzlies.

    That's because the Elvis thing and the Grizzlies are the only thing Memphis has.

    Don't forget the Redbirds, Charlie Vergo's Rendezvous, and a history of racism.

    I'm going to go out on a limb:

    Two years ago, also in the 2nd round, Memphis led OKC 2-1 with game 4 at home. They went up 18 in the 2nd quarter and had a chance to choke the life out of OKC. They didn't and blew the game. If they get a big lead tonight, turn out the lights, the party's over.

    If Ibaka isn't a factor on offense, Memphis should finally be able to assert themselves and win convincingly.

    Kendrick Perkins is pure comedy on offense. That was probably the worst attempt in NBA history.

    You guys just don't appreciate the beautiful majesty that is Perkins.

    KD never gets mad at Perkins (or Jackson) when he messes up. is that a sign of a good leader or should he lay into him once in a while?

    You have to lay into people when you're a leader. It's part of the job.

    At least Ibaka is going to make an appearance for a quarter of this series.
