    Memphis with slow start. Memphis could make this a series but like is expressed earlier in this thread, I feel a healthy OKC will be too much. Scoring is crucial in the playoffs. Teams like Memphis and Indiana can struggle to score at times and in today's NBA, I feel its hard to go far with inconsistent offense. You have to have balance on both ends.

    The thunder just flat out score. They dont struggle with memphis size, length and strength because they are longer and fastet. The grizz would have been much better against the spurs i still think they take the thunder to 6 games.

    Only odd and unnecessary because someone got hurt? When westbrook did it it was okay?

    Hypocrisy and lack of knowledge from the media.

    Those of you tempted to write the Grizzlies off because of the slow start, hold your horses. I've watched OKC quite a bit over the years. More than any team I've ever seen, they lose concentration after getting to big leads. It's just the nature of their team.

    Damn they cater to lebrok/kd/kobe/melo fans so much. They make it seem like the thunder would not have gotten swept by a better heat team without harden. The same heat team that set the second highest nba winning streak record.

    Not only that, but they still had to beat the grizz who beat them easily and then the spurs. Nobody media outlet cried about the rockets injuries when we had contending teams.

    This is when the thunder are fun to watch. Westbrook and Durant both being unguardable.

    That highlight of paul losing the ball has to be the worst angle they could find. Stop trying to cover up how much the officials sucked that game.
