I really think we're the better team but this could be quite hard on the road. They play everyone tough and have plenty of Grizzly killers on the roster.

ps. Kate Beckinsale very attractive for 38 yrs. wow

When you're dealing with a coach like Mark Jackson and how he used to play during his career. You expect his team to operate in the same way. Be more defensive mined while allowing the offense to come to you. In spite the record they have, 5-10 isn't as bad as it seems. My worry is the Grizz allow the Warriors backcourt to get lethel on offense. Plus allow the Warriors 3% shooting become a factor. If the Grizz do their best to keep that from happening, we'll have a chance of winning.

She's don't look like she's 38 at all. She's been taking care of herself very well.

Grizzlies defense was very poor in the 1st half, and that made it really easy for GS to defend because they could always set up.

It's better here in the second half, but unfortunately the turnovers are still hurting us.

plus they're getting away with moving screens and knocking down everything from the arc in the fourth

I almost can't believe we just pulled that off. Great comeback.

With the way they played in the first three quarters, who would've thunk it. A one point win.

I changed the channel at halftime thinking it was one of those games where they just didn't have it. Turned it on again with around five minutes to go in the game and was glued to every posession. Great comeback. Some of those sequences with the steals and fastbreaks where fantastic.

Pretty huge that they can win these kinds of games (big 4th quarter comeback) on the road.
But it sucks that I couldn't watch the game at all last night and was hoping to catch it on league pass broadband. Turns out it's not available. wtf!? :evil: Plus it's "fan night" tonight on NBATV so I'm going to have to find some crappy bootleg stream to watch the game. Not that the quality of a fake stream is much worse than NBA LP broadband or anything. :x
