    This showed that Mike Brown still can't coach.
    Only totally screwed up organization like Sacramento Kings would hire him as a Head Coach.

    The warriors are barely winning against the grizzlies as it is. If they are screwing around they are playing with dangerous fire.
    But like I said they have gotten all of the breaks in this series.

    Guys, did anyone know the Warriors get breaks?

    Watching the last X amount of years, especially as a Rockets fan, this is coming as new information to me.

    It's just so surprising the Warriors are getting all the breaks.

    Crazy Memphis has a better record without him. That team is deep and their bigs are are actually big.

    That could be us be we always talking about small ball.

    As much fun as I and others have had with some of your past Grizzlies-centric posts (e.g. the unfathomable levels of Rudy Gay's talents) I, for one, am happy for you man.

    Is Memphis better without Ja?

    It is more of a reflection of Tyus Jones, in point of fact.
    The grizzlies are certainly a smarter team with Tyus. Tyus is probably the best non-turnover pg in the league, also the fact that the grizzlies have tailored the entire offense around the pg position allows Tyus to look better than he might in another offense.
    Also, Steven Adams more than Ja is the key to the grizzlies offense with rebounding and screens, which is why I could never understand why Taylor benched him until it was nearly too late in favor of Tillman who was doing nearly nothing — pathetically.

    They have a 2nd overall pick, 6th, 10th, 12th, and 4th on the team.

    Really proving your point again man. Bravo! 5 lottery picks equate to all 2nd rounders in your head somehow.

    Hakeem94 doesn't understand the lottery picks aren't just 1-3 or chooses to stay ignorant about it to push the dumb antitank stance

    Incredible effort by the Grizzles all season with and without Ja. Credit to the FO for putting this team together and the coaching staff. With that said I have seen enough playoff basketball in my life to see a blowout win by the Warriors next game, Steph will be shimmying from the sidelines by the beginning of the 4th.

    That's it, right there.

    In every thread, they continue to push their antitank / "analytics are dumb" stance, but when anyone has an opposing stance and tries to have a rational discussion with them, they never respond. Instead, they just continue to post trash thoughts after trash thoughts.

    It's sad.
