    Spurs in 6 I say. Could go either way though, really.

    Grizzles in 6. Spurs are clearly showing their age with that Golden State series, plus Parker is hobbled.

    I believe Grizzlies beat Spurs in 6 a few years back? But, that was with Rudy Gay. Not sure what difference that will make though since they're playing great without him.

    They beat them without Gay in 6.

    Oh yeah, right, that was without Gay. So, I think Grizzlies will win this one then. The Grizzlies have improved since 2 years ago, not sure I can say the same about the Spurs.

    Spurs played very well against the Grizzles this season even after the Rudy Gay trade, and almost beat them the last meeting in Memphis with Parker only playing. I say Spurs in six because they didn't play a great series against Memphis but they're showing flashes of playing the same ball back in February. Splitter also has played Randolph pretty good in the post because of his length, I think it should be a great series.

    Spurs in 6. They match up extremely well with Memphis.

    Pop has the defenders now (Green + Leonard) to put on guys like Conley, Bayless and Pondexter and Pop will turn Allen and Prince into volume shooters. Memphis already has a tough time scoring and San Antonio's defense has been stout as of late.

    I'll take the Spurs.

    Griz sweep because it's the most unlikely.

    Can't believe they are giving the Spurs a rest before hitting the road.

    Can't believe I'm saying this, but go Memphis!

    I don't think the Spurs can outduel a younger and physical team. Good matchup for the Grizz, and I think they can beat Miami.
