Series Thread: 2) Memphis Grizzlies vs 3) Golden State Warriors

[Picklerick 2.0]

Only if they get better organized.

Least disciplined playoff team I have seen in a long time. As talented as almost anybody though.

Extremely talented but the talent is not well distributed. We have no bigs. Sure, we have athletic long guys, but we have no bigs. We can only play one way. Get us into a half court game and we are toast. Memphis can't hang with the warriors in an open court game, and we don't have Draymond to facilitate the half court. I don't see Memphis hanging very long.

Nah, ja is amazing but curry is just a better version. Look at the rest of the rosters between the two, golden state is just a better version of Memphis. And the warriors aren't gonna collapse like the wolves do under pressure

Eh, Curry and Ja are pretty different types of players. But yes the Ws are favored and more talented and should win. Won't be easy and like I said there's a nonzero chance Memphis wins, especially having HCA

Warriors in 6.

Yep

 

[Montalban]

Nice. Warriors win guaranteed.

A hungrier team and one that stands up well against the Warriors. The Warriors will blow the opener and the Griz will not look back.

Of course you will LOL

I picked GS last series, don’t get too whiney

I get what you're saying, I just don't see this Memphis team winning against a better talented team that doesn't shit the bed.

U-R-Insufferable.

U-R-Insufferable.

Not insufferable, predictable. The less energy you spend on him the better.

 

[Montalban]

U-R-Insufferable.

When a grinding team that makes you work goes up against the flash of the Warriors, the Warriors back down.

More like predictably insufferable.
Zero to very minimal "energy" at best.

You haven't been wrong yet, so...

I don't either, I just didn't see the comparison with Curry and Ja.

Both are undersized guards who exceed expectations because they are so much better at what they do than they were expected to be. But other than than, curry is a sniper and ja is a marine. So, I do understand what you are talking about.

I mean, I get it, playoffs are different and the Warriors never had their big 3 all year, but they do have HCA. I think it goes 6.

Perhaps the Warriors got a break in that the Grizzlies have a very short break between playing last night and playing the Warriors tomorrow at 12:30 pm. The conditions seem favorable for the Warriors to steal home court advantage in Game 1.

I would really like to see them win game 1, takes a lot of pressure off.

I said 1230 because of my West Coast bias.

Almost tip off time.
