While I will not be available to watch minute by minute (LSU & Bama on at the same time) I am still attempting to reserve my criticism until December if the Grizz are still relevant.

While I am not ready to proclaim the sky is falling, I am beginning to wonder if this is a Boston Red Sox situation, and that after they traded Babe Ruth he went on to become one of the greats and they did not sniff the Championship for nearly 100 years, "The curse of the Bambino"

The Memphis version is the lack of a negotiation for the best coach in your history to go in another direction.
"The curse of the Train" we may not be there yet but without a turn around and soon the wheels will be coming off the wagon.

This matchup will be a difficult one for the Grizz as they are fully loaded up and down the roster. The Warriors are coming off a tough loss against the Spurs after both teams had lousy timing on offense. The Warriors will look to get back to winning once again. The Grizz must solve their issues on the defensive end and plug the leaks that is their TOs'. One thing they can't afford to do is turn the ball over to the Warriors. Otherwise, the Warriors will take advantage of this and will look to score in a hurry.

Look like every grizz fan I have read agree that the keys are to start defending like the grizzs and to cut the TOs.

Calathis kind of remind me to Jason Williams.

32-29 Grizz with the lead at the end of the first quarter.

The Grizz may want to slow the fast pace down to control the Warriors.

Great putback by Kuofos.

Douglas with the shot clock violation. Better recognize!

Prince with the needed shot to push up the lead.

Better watch out for Barnes. He can get hot in a hurry.

Prince getting free and knockin down some shots.

Igguodala always complaining to the refs. No matter what. Maybe he is not the only one in this game but cameras are always on him doing that.

MC11 with the slice and dice moves.

GSW does not look so good when they are not having fun playing basketball. They look frustrated so far in the game...

Iggy trying to get the refs on his side like any other all star players will do.

When the Warriors are playing quick-pace bball, they are at their most dangerous. The key here is to slow them down and force them to make their shots. Meaning pressure defense in all of the shooters faces.

The Grizz also have turned the ball over in their last three possessions. They need to tighten up.

KT hits the three for the Warriors. Grizz barely hanging on to the lead until the move by TA to push the lead up to 3.

Klay Thompson hits another. The Warriors dare the Grizz to beat them at their game. I say take the dare.

David Lee collects his fourth foul.

Back and fourth like a big matchup.

MC11 picked up his fourth foul. This will test the Grizz for sure.

Add the fact that it was not a good call. Bogut moving screen was an offensive f.

Grizz back up 12pts. Must keep a strong lead on these guys.
