OT: Grizzlies impressively squeaking past horribly injured teams

[OregonHuskerMan]

Well, the Grizzlies are 3-2 against the Heat since they acquired LeBron.

This season, the Grizz blew out the Heat in one game and lost late in the fourth in the other.

Girl, you silly if you think the Heat in the regular season are the same as the Heat in the playoffs.

Completely different level - offensively and especially defensively.

Loooooool. was this a serious post?

Yup.

Westbrook is the best player on that team.

Durant for Batum and Meyers Leonard, then... Make it happen, Olshey!

That doesn't make him expendable.

Insofar as OKC, I don't have much sympathy. Per my recollection, they've been a remarkably healthy team the past few years. One injury and they're toast? Please.

I watched that game last night and thought about us with a healthy Roy and Oden. Sure, we wouldn't have Lillard, but with Roy, GO, LA and Nico, you could play HCP at the two and win. We used to play OKC even or beat them with Roy and or GO gone. With all our players healthy? There would have been no one in the league who could have kept up with us.

That team was set for one hell of a run. Damn.

Zach's playoff stats really stack up nicely against Aldridge's playoff stats.

No one said Stat-Bo couldn't ball. The guy is incredible considering his lack of jumping ability. Unfortunately for us, it took him hitting bottom and being traded to make a comeback from his personal issues. The PDX Z-Bo and the MEM Z-Bo are two different people.

Durant was amazing for most of the game. Then in the fourth, with the defense keying on him, he couldn't hit. Shades of Nobitchy.

That slime Fisher stunk up the joint for most of the game. He hits a late three, and the announcers peed themselves praising him. Typical.

Odd thread, this one.

Go Griz. Please put the Zombie Sonics and their hillbilly fans in the trash, where they belong.

I want the Conference Finals to be GS-MEM and CHI-IND with a MEM-IND final.

One team wins the championship and everyone else fails. The Thunder and Grizzlies, who have no chance of winning the title, are just as big of failures as the Blazers except the Blazers will get a better pick. Suck to be fans of the Grizzlies and Thunder. Horrible teams with no hope of improving.

What a ridiculously clueless post....OKC and MEM fans have a shitload more to be happy about than POR fans right now and likely for the forseeable future....

You fell right into that trap.

What's the point of making the playoffs if it all ends with a depressing disappointing loss? Who celebrates only making it to the second round or the WCF? I don't remember anyone being happy after we lost game 7 in the 2000 WCF. In fact, Blazers fans are generally happier this year than that year.

I'd rather have a ticket inside the dance....even if it means just standing there on the sidelines watching all the cool cats dance with the ladies. SO much better than being on the outside.....wondering what was going on in there.

Umm. If you want tickets to a Grizzlies/Thunder game, they're available on Ticketmaster.com. You don't the Blazers in the playoffs to see what they're like.

You totally missed my point.

Never mind.

My point is losing in the playoffs sucks. There is nothing fun about it.

Something about better have loved and lost......

Nah. You have to find the RIGHT love. It's more like do you want to get married to this girl or this girl? Once you're married, you're married. The Thunder and Grizzlies are married to horrible teams who will never win anything. We're playing the field and putting together a monster team that will WIN in the playoffs. I'll wait.
