Great article! One comment: A notable fact that Verno and others leave out of the narrative in Game 1 is Tony played poor defense for most of the game. He...

I agree about Prince, but I still think that he really had some key buckets for us last night, and I love his poise and defense. Could he do more?...

Can we talk about how many open looks Tayshaun has been turning down? His defense has been irreplaceable and, combined with QPon's, has been key in getting TA the rest...

If I read the box scores correctly it looks like Conley and Gasol each played slightly more minutes than Durant. Does anyone know how old these three guy are?...

If Tony played the entire 4th quarter, he would play maybe half the quarter before he fouled out. Even with limited minutes, he always has at least 3 fouls going...

How about the fact that we are a single game 1 KD jumper from a sweep in this series? Yes, the asterisk will be that Westbrook is out. So effing...

A great Mike Conley game. I thought the Grizz offense finally woke up in this series (after being asleep except for a brief 4th quarter run in game 2), triggered...

The Grizz are doing great. No need to pontificate, analyze, or nit pick. Memphis fans are a puzzling lot. Full of angst, conspiracy theories, inferiority complexes. We need to learn...

Agree on your concerns about small ball. I was mostly frustrated with our inability to punish the Thunder for going small when they were on defense. If Durant is guarding...

Tayshaun had a stinker. Hope that's just an aberration; he's been through all this umpteen times and, it's weird, but when he plays badly -- Durant roared right by him...

Gasol had about 2 or 3 possessions in a row where he absolutely abused Perkins. It was hilarious. They were so good I thought Perkins might lose his cool and...

The biggest problem is and has been the offense, which comes down to how well Mike Conley pushes the pace. If he gets the Grizz into their offensive sets early...
