I can't wait.. literally cannot wait.
I predicted 4-3 in our favour at the start but I honestly can't see us winning if we don't win tomorrow.. Need to hit those free throws!!
Go Grizz!

http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/23 ... -OklahomanI wonder how angry KD is after the Oklahoman called him "Mr. Unreliable" today. The last thing that needs to happen is for KD to get motivated to create havoc tonight.
Time to end the Thunder tonight.

What will it take for Gasol to get more aggressive and take shots whenever he can?
6 straight points tells me that he should be shooting more and passing less...

We are running the whole offense through Marc. 3 FGM in a row is important. Zbo and Gasol are intimidated by ibaka.

That's my point. We're running all the offense through Marc but I've lost count the number of times this series he's given up an open look to get it back to Zbo or Conley.
If he has the shot then he needs to just take it.

Yep, I can see that too. Kind of floating him somehow, Maybe it is not floating, is more kind of bad adjustment....
Nice three Mr Miller....

A lot of good work this quarter being undone by bad shots and missed free throws.
33% from the charity stripe is NOT good enough.

I may be crazy...... but the way the grizzlies have laid an egg tonight --- I like their chances in game7. They haven't really exerted themselves tonight and just rolled over like a dead dog. They have 48 hrs to seek their souls and "get right with God". I believe they can conquer the darkness. Even in the belly of the beast and the land of unholy depravity, they could emerge with a victory. But tonight - they only deserve the shadow of defeat. Their charge has been snuffed like a candle in the wind.

Not looking good at all. And with MC11 hamstring questionable. This looks like we're going back to OKC to settle this once and for all.

Sounds like you been hitting the bible a little bit. I hope there is a light at the end of the tunnel for the Grizzlies.

honestly - I believe the grizzlies had a night off tonight and can give it to them in game7.
We have a **** brewing. It's up to the guys in blue to right the ship on the road!
couldn't have gone much worse tonight. I can only hope they do some soul searching and get back on page here. The path of the righteous is narrow. if you believe, there is no doubt

That was a disgusting effort.
Outscored by plenty in all quarters except the last (which we won by 1 point).
69% from the free throw line... what? Sure, even if we hit all the ones we missed (9), we wouldn't have won, but it would have put pressure on the Thunder at the all the crucial times.
Back to basics or go home is pretty much the message I'd be giving them if I were Joerger.

Worked late and missed this one. How serious is the Conley injury?
Kind of glad I missed this one.
