2021-22 NBA Season Discussion

[Doctor MJ]

how does this series make you feel about warriors title chsnces?

i am unsure if warriors are dissapointing by being played to a standstill by these grizzlies, or if the grizzlies are jusy that good and a potential champiomship team themselves

I have to say, it's exasperating watching these turnovers. I don't believe they can beat a true contender playing this way.

I don't mean to belittle what the Grizzlies are doing because they deserve much praise, but I don't believe you can make THIS many mistakes and beat all comers.

So the question remains whether the Warriors can play better than this. Reduce the unforced errors down to 2010s level, get in rhythm from 3, and they may end up champs...but I don't believe they can snap their fingers and make that happen and their play in this series has me thinking the odds have dipped considerably.

i'm somewhat disappointed by the warriors but not enough to discount them. i feel like they'll look better in the WCF (if they win) regardless of who they match up against .. the grizzlies match up well with GSW imo and always seem to give them trouble, i expected a good series once they got past the wolves. now i certainly didnt expect GSW to struggle this much against the morant-less grizzlies so it definitely is somewhat of a hit

Klay's shot selection... My word.

[falcolombardi]

warriors remind me a bit of heat actually

a greay defense team with a offensive star (and i will be honest, curry has not looked better than jimmy in offense these playoffs imo) and a solid offensive second option in poole/herro

both of their offenses being solid and based on ball movement and shooting but fairlt prone to slumps and both have a great defensive an passimg big that cannot shot

[jalengreen]

lapse there by JJJ leaving wiggins open and then a bad turnover leading to easy fastbreak layup. tough run

[Peregrine01]

This Bucks/Celtics series really feels like the Finals for me. Every other team seems to be a tier below.

[eminence]

Klay's shot selection... My word.

Pretty straightforward, Klay has the ball, Klay shoots the ball.

[jalengreen]

i dont wanna count the suns out either because of how ridiculous they were in the regular season, but they clearly haven't been as impressive in the playoffs

they're gonna need cp3 to get back into form. he's had 3 unimpressive games in a row since turning 37. not gonna win with that

[falcolombardi]

grizzlies commiting costly mistakes again at the end of a winnable game

as much as warriors were makinh dumb turnovers all game long, they are outexecuting grizzlies in the clutch

[falcolombardi]

thst is game

time to see who faces warriors in the conference finals

[Fadeaway_J]

Klay's shot selection... My word.

Pretty straightforward, Klay has the ball, Klay shoots the ball.

I swear he shot at least a couple without actually having the ball

[jalengreen]

that'll do it

[jalengreen]

super impressive fight by the grizzlies this entire series and especially in three games without ja

it will look even more impressive if the warriors go on to win the finals

[Peregrine01]

Draymond not even wanting to take the 3 with his defender backed up all the way in the paint up 13 with 2 minutes to go...

[eminence]

Lol, Dray

right kow i would feel very confident in boston or bucks over them

but everythingh can change quickly

[falcolombardi]

btw, props to looney, legendary stuff

[yoyoboy]

Steph's showboating to end this game has been pretty crazy for someone who shot like crap most of the night. I don't get why people have a hard time understanding why others find this team so unlikeable lol.

Looney demoralized this Memphis team. Just countless second chance opportunities for GS down the stretch as a result of his presence on the glass.

i agree assuming middleton plays (and i think he has a chance to play in g7 so thats a fair assumption)

Player of the game really. Rebounded like a madman.
