(1) Thunder vs. (8) Grizzlies First Round Playoff Series Thread

[QUOTE=Meticode;14995850]It's because of Memphis' market and their odds of winning since they're down 0-2. If you go to Boston the same seats are like 12 times the price.[/QUOTE]

Wow thats a big difference.

You should see Indiana Fever tickets. They're 300+ for some bad seats if it's versus some of the top seeds during the season. Why would someone waste their money on a $300+ ticket that's a regular season game. Smh

Because Clark.

It's so stupid this game is on TNT and the other is on NBA TV.

Maybe the Grizz can turn the series around. I know they're a good team but I didn't expect them to come out like this. Otherwise it's the Thunder proving they're not ready like they proved last playoffs.

Morant in a heap of bones.

No update yet on Morant. He is not starting the 2nd half. The fall didn't even look that bad. He caught him self with his hands and arms first. Looks lie the biggest part that hit the floor first was his pelvic area.

Morant officially out, left hip contusion. Thunder will smell blood.

Memphis and the moron trying way too hard to avoid a sweep.

SGA looks very ordinary in the playoffs.

The MVP and runner up (Jokic) have played very meh in the playoffs so far.

I'll be surprised if the Thunder don't get this within single digits at least once before the end of the game. I feel it's more likely the Grizzlies will cough up a 23 point lead than keep it.

Tf does Jokic have to do with this? This is a MEM vs OKC thread.

Bane is blowing it stop giving him the ball.

I'm just saying both MVP candidates are playing underwhelming so far in the playoffs so far.

I hope there's no Memphis fans on the forum. They're slowly blowing this.

Yes, SGA needs to be more aggressive as well.

Caruso blows the widest open layup in NBA history.

And just like that, within 5 minutes 23 points goes to 8 points.

Grizzlies are completely incompetent at dribbling outside of Morant. Pathetic.

Well, when you have one player on the court (Edey) who literally almost never dribbles...

I'm getting ready to not hear this Memphis crowd and for them to be shhhhh soon.

This is looking like a good call.

How many centers dribble lol

[QUOTE=RRR3;14996151]How many centers dribble lol[/QUOTE]

Chet
Jackson Jr.
Bam
Lopez
Embiid
Sabonis
Davis
Jokic
Wemby
Towns
Sengun

The Memphis crowd sounds like a pre-season game. The fans up in the nose bleeds are probably like, "These $12 seats weren't worth it."

Lead official blown. Tie game 99-99. Once Morant went out who is their emotionally leader Memphis lost its soul.

They blew a 29 point lead officially.

Props to Pippen Jr. for having his best game of his NBA career.

[QUOTE=Meticode;14996152]Chet [B]not center[/B]

So 7 (8 If i give you Bam) and all stars or former all stars. And AD wasn't playing center lately either tbh.

Can't believe Lakers let Caruso go man..

Lopez can put it on the floor and go to the basket from the three point line when he has to. He's done it numerous times for the Bucks, but that's not what he's in for.

But I'll give you that.

So about 1/4 of the league starting centers can dribble the basketball decently well for their size and position. Which is more than "who can?"

The star centers can. Edey is a rookie and not going to be a star most likely.

Memphis with 31 points in the 2nd half lol.

[QUOTE=ImKobe;14996158]Can't believe Lakers let Caruso go man..[/QUOTE]

Not every organization gets a Pau Gasol or Luka Doncic gifted to them. They'll be okay.

Just keep passing the ball to Caruso's man. Great idea. Bane had a pretty good look from 3 should've taken it instead of forcing it to Pippen.

[QUOTE=RRR3;14996160]The star centers can. Edey is a rookie and not going to be a star most likely.[/QUOTE]

Well there's your answer. "How many centers can dribble?"

1/4 the league. Edey is one of the worst.

:lol Edey keeps costing Memphis big plays and crucial moments and they just keep putting him out there with his stone hands.

Holmgren is a monster. But he also sucked the first half and had a big role in okc being down by so much.

Welp, might as well sit Morant for Game 4. Mark those nosebleed seats from $12 down to $6 and go all in for the sweep.
