Do we Want Memphis or San Antonio? 

Post#1 » by Benny Gold » Thu Apr 28, 2011 8:12 am

I'm leaning towards San Antonio. Personally, I feel as if we match up much better with Spurs. Plus, they're a lot older, and they'll wear quicker. That, and Tim Duncan is a shell of his former self. Same with Tony Parker.

What say you?

I'd rather have to worry about Tim Duncan than Zach Randolph.

That's a tuff one, but if I had to pick I guess I would take Memphis for the homecourt.

I think we'd beat Memphis but lose to San Antonio.

Piston fan here I think it doesn't matter who you play. In my opinion the Thunder are the team to beat.

Homecourt advantage with Memphis. Plus, I like watching the Grizzlies play more than I like watching the Spurs play.

Especially after KD said it was the fans who lit him up. Not to mention the Spurs are a team who have been there and done that, they are mature. We are a young team that at time can play very immature.

Plus, if the Spurs turn the series around after beeing down 1-3 and were VERY close to lose game 5, I strongly beleive they would be hugely motivated and have the "momentum" coming into the series against OKC.
I would rather play Memphis and have home court, that would be really sweet.
Life may not be the party we hoped for but while we are here we might as well dance!

If we move the ball around and at least 2 of Westbrook/Harden/Ibaka shots are going in, we can beat either team.

If the team play ISO mode, we'll lose to most team. The matchup isn't as important as Brooks preparation. I just hope he practise ball movement other than defence.

Memphis it is. Two young athletic teams set to face off against one another in this battle tested playoff series should be very exciting. Looking forward to this. May the best team win.
