The Lowdown


Warning to the Spurs. You're stepping into Bear Country now.

If you think this is the Memphis Zoo, you're dead wrong. Didn't you read the sign? The sign said Bear Country a.k.a. FedEx Forum. Home of the Memphis Grizzlies and the fans who will see the return of the playoffs to Memphis for the first time in 5 seasons. One thing's for sure. This series has been anything but easy. It's been highly contested and played tighter than a 500lb fat man wearing spandex. We're in Bear Country now means we must take advantage with the home crowd on our side. The sounds of growls and cheers must dominate the Forum as well as the Grizzlies must be on point onboth ends of the floor if they wish to gain an edge over the Spurs in this match. Maintain the right to be fiesty, ferocious, and best of all, show fundamentals to the game and win this on your home floor.

Good quarter by the Grizz. So far they manage to keep the Spurs from dictating the pace. We have to keep this up by keep the Spurs on their heels.

Spurs slowly get back into the game. Can't afford to revert into a shooting team. Continue to attack the post.

Although they struggled the last two minutes. the Grizzlies played a solid first half. They attacked the paint well. They were effective in transition which put the Spurs on their heels. Rebounding battle needs to be in the Grizz favor.

If the Grizz continue to play wih the energy they display inthe first hal and limit the Spurs offensely. They can get this win.
