    Credit to Brooks on one thing in this series. He has completely gone away from Thabo except a few minutes to start and in the 3rd.

    this is why it's not wise to say things like, "not in our house..."- umm, they already won one in Memphis' house.

    I liked this quote more, "The only team that I as a grizzlies fan worries about is the team that comes out of the east. Miami, Boston and the Bulls are going to be tough to win against.

    I think in the west, I just don't see any team that can beat us."

    The Thunder are winning it all if Harden contributes like this the rest of the way.

    Finally. :)

    Yes, but watch out for Ibaka next season and see if you are still saying that.

    The whole series, Durant has been playing 2nd fiddle behind Westbrooks.

    Don't know is a bad thing or not?

    if the grizz can limit OKC's fastbreak opportunities, they will win this game.

    they had too many easy points in that 2nd quarter. OKC's halfcourt offense is very predictable unless westbrook or durant go off and make their jumpshots.

    5 of durant's 6 shots are 3s.

    If Mayo can play on Durant then so can Courtney Lee. It still maddens me thinking about why Analman insisted on giving Bud so much time at the 3 instead of Lee.

    Jesus, CL is not a fricken SF, neither is Mayo. Teams might go small at times and there might be odd defensive matchups, that doesn't mean shet.

    I thought the series was over after the first half, but the Grizzlies are showing some serious grit. Regardless of the outcome of this game, I'm impressed.

    and tony allen didn't even touch KD there. how did the refs call a foul on that? not even close to contact.

    EDIT: and damn, offensive foul on that crazy arthur dunk
