Damn spurs are pulling out every trick in the book. It is clear what the spurs want to do is keep the game close.
watching the grizz going from a "me" team to this is a sight to behold. they're a really good team. if they had rudy gay, they will win this series for sure
WHet Grizzlies do, is they play hard and tough basketball. Spurs used to do that. But now Memphis has the edge. They have two SHUT DOWN defenders on the outside and they bring scorer in Mayo who can get 20+ any time. They rebound to add to that. This team is beating the Spurs, with or without Ginobili.
if rudy gay was healthy and actually reaches his potential as a true all-star, the grizz have the ingredients to be a championship team (with experience of course) they have inside scoring, rebounding, good perimeter defense.
Since March 1, Mayo has scored over 20 points.......... 1 time. And that was against Minnesota. I'm cheering for the Spurs these playoffs, so count me skeptcial about Memphis being such a good team. That said, Danny Ainge has proven that he's a complete and total moron this year.
Why not? They're not Dallas, there's no bitter playoff defeats like 2005, and they don't have pieces of **** like Terry or Kirilenko on their team. Manu's a flopper, but so are Martin and Scola. And I like Duncan, all the more so after watching Lebron and Bosh.. I want him to get #5 so the Kobe fans will understand who really is the greatest player of his generation.
That Battier, he's giving out the best of both worlds, Jeff Van Gundy's defense and Adelman's offense.
