I really want the clippers to make it to the finals and knock off the heat, but we all know that isnt going to happen. Itll be fun to watch at least.

That was a gooooooood game. Makes me a little sick he's no longer with the Hornets though. Vasquez is a great PG, hell he even came just shy of CP3 for 2nd in assists this year, but that just tells you how big of a gap is between 2 and 3.

That was ridikuhlus

He is so damn good and I can't stand that little 17er.

Playing one good quarter of basketball in two games gets the Griz what they got. Down 2-0. Have to get it back even in Memphis.

Exactly right. They've been playing like this all year....start off slow, play like ****, come alive in the third quarter, and win in the end. That won't get it done in the playoffs. You gotta play from the opening tip. And last night was probably the 80th time this year that the Grizz has come out flat and been outplayed to start the 4th quarter. Thank God for Darrell Arthur...five straight points by him really got Memphis back into the game late.

Watch the replay of the final shot by Paul. Griffin has Arthur in a bearhug holding him while Paul makes his drive. I mean two arms all the way around his waist. It is blatant. I never gripe about the refs and usually mock people who do, but you gotta make that call.

You're NEVER going to find a ref who calls a foul with 6 seconds left on the clock. Griffin knows that. To be fair it wouldn't have been called the other way either.
