Good game memphis.. Tough to win at the grind house
Finals Preview part 2? Hawks vs Grizzlies
- Thread starter charmander
- Start date
And the Grizz played at their pace.
Hawks aren't built for these ugly grit and grind games. They want to be up tempo and spacing you out with the ball.
We can play any pace of Basketball. We aren't Golden State. We simply don't match-up well personnel wise with Memphis.
Nothing would make me happier than for this to be the finals matchup.
We're absolutely going to NEED Pero to play well offensively if we're going to beat these dudes. He played well on defense but him being terrible on O makes it hard to justify him being in the game.
Also, Mike Scott is going to have to have a good series too .

nah it's your opinion. a bullshyt at that.
i hope we play ya in the playoffs. we need a 1st round bye.
Great game, good win by the Grizzlies.
That said, you just can't expect Horford and Millsap to shoot that horribly most of the time, and despite that, the Hawks actually were still in the game late. Also, there seems to be this sensibility that the Hawks can't play physical, which is silly. This game was about missed opportunities and great defense by Memphis.
On the major plus side, both Bazemore and Scott continue to grow into REALLY great players for the Hawks.

Countdown to Armageddon
Your assertion that Memphis would win a given series is an opinion. Memphis often getting bailed out down the stretch is an observable fact.
Just looking at the one play in question, Green was out of control, traveled, threw up a brick and instead they called a foul when there was no more contact than there had been on every other play of the game, in which the officials up to that point were "letting them play", as evidenced by only 11 fouls called on Memphis when they purposely bump and hack on nearly every defensive possession. I didnt point this out, it was another poster.
Its the same story every time it goes down to the wire w/ the Grizzlies. Phoenix has outplayed them in 4 of the last 6 matchups and questionable officiating was the difference, each time in favor of Memphis. This is all already filed and understood.
