A Grenade Toss Is Nothing When You Survived A Bombing... Official (1)Thunder vs (8)Grizzlies 1st Round Playoff Thread

[QuintessentialBM]

I don't expect a 50 point win, but I'll be a little hot if OKC don't blow them out by 20-30.

All of the former players on these podcasts have been calling OKC frauds, so I need them to stand on bidness!

I actually think tonight's game will be closer.

Memphis will come out to play with more energy; in Game 1, they looked gassed midway through the first quarter; I suspect it's from the all-out effort they put in against the Mavs a few nights prior.

OKC will win, but I think the final score will be a lot closer than anticipated; it's hard to follow up a blowout win, especially of that magnitude, with another blowout because the opposing team is going to play with more urgency.

 

[DoubleJ13]

What a start

 

[Nabs]

What kind of offense is Memphis playing?

 

[MikelArteta]

Just remembered some of these guys on thunder were there when grizz beat them by 73

Y'all be having the most random faith in trying hard making a difference. This team is dogshyt. They will lose by 25 plus like always

 

[MikelArteta]

What a start

All these teams gonna be down 0-2 at the end of the day

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Memphis is about to get dog walked again. What a start by OKC

 

[Unbothered]

I will also say that if Taylor Jenkins was still coaching, the Grizzlies wouldn't have looked so bad on Sunday, let alone for the beginning of this game so far.

They would've been bad, but not that bad; with Jenkins, it would've been a 15-20 point loss, but with this guy, it was double that. Everybody is talking about what Ja, Bane, and JJJ didn't do Sunday, but you also gotta put some of the blame on their coach.

I know he's just an intern coach, but he looks absolutely clueless; the camera panned toward his face a few times on Sunday, and he had the facial expression of a man who doesn't know what the hell he's doing, straight befuddled.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Memphis is fighting for the life out here.

Thread title is wild

If Pippen is starting then these guys are super doomed.

 

[Nabs]

No one on the grizz running back during a fastbreak

 

[DoubleJ13]

Ja said we won't ever play that bad again & they got 6 points over half way through the quarter
