When was the last time a MVP got first-rounded?

The Grizz are playing great defense and getting to good double digit leads

These nikkas need to learn how to close.

That's the thing, I just question this teams ability to hold on to leads long term. Thunder won't let this shyt happen again. I have a feeling this goes to 7 and if it does, I just don't see Memphis winning on the road again

Why do you say the Thunder won't let this happen again?

They've gotten in holes ever since Game 3. The Grizz have looked like the better squad overall and a couple of amazing plays from OKC and the series is over tonight.

The grindhouse is a good homecourt advantage

The fact that OKC isn't winning when the games are being handed just tells me these nikkas don't have it

I've been one of the few contrarian posters before this series even started, but I just don't see Memphis doing this two more games in a row. It's unebelievable how perfect everything is playing out. That last possession was terrible also from OKC. TERRIBLE.Ok, so make another possession.

I dunno, it's just tough to believe. I hope Memphis pulls it out, but I don't think they have it in them to finish OKC off n/h
That's how it seems to me. No matter how shytty the Thunder play, the Grizzlies seem to refuse to shut the door on him. If Westbrook and Durant have 2 games where they just shoot like rabbit shyt instead of pure dog shyt, they go to the next round. If they have decent games or better, they should win out easily.

if Kobestans had their way, Kobe would have been first rounded as an MVP two years in a row.

Home court doesn't mean shyt. This has 7 game chokejob written all over it. Desperation hasn't clicked for them yet but it will next game. I'm sure of it.

Definitely not for OKC since they just lost two

and the Grizz lost at home because they gave these nikkas the game and Jackson made sure to take it

Don't see it happening again. Memphis will also be desperate.

I don't see no 2012 LeBron vs. Boston Game 6 thing happening here

Brooks will continue to be outcoached as well. ISO ball isn't going to work against MEM. It just isn't.

We'll see. I just don't believe in Memphis at all.
