I disagree. OKC got a raw deal losing a top 5 guy. GS matches up well with either of those teams.

You disagree? Can you name 3 players on Memphis?

So if GS matches up well with Memphis tell me who guards Randolph? Gasol? Landry is 6'7". Gonna start playing Bogut 40 minutes?
Memphis is a bad matchup for GS especially without Lee. They have Tony Allen who is the premier perimeter defending guard in the league, Prince who can give Thompson trouble with his length if Hollins decides to go that way. Conley is a tough matchup for Curry which forces Jack to play more minutes. Believe me GS is praying that memphis loses.

I can name the entire team. I know my hoops. Who takes the big shot for them? Im not trusting Conley. Rudy Gay loss will hurt. I believe GS is the best team in the West right now, regardless of who they play. Like I said last week, if only Lee was healthy.

There might not be any big shots to take. Rudy Gay 's absence is meaningless, he is a paper tiger. The fact is that Memphis will murder GS on the boards, can play perimeter defense because they have Gasol in the middle and GS will have issues guarding them in the half court.

GS in my mind is not going to get by SA anyway

Chuck you might be right on Golden St. They literally gave away game 1. I was pretty stunned they managed to lose game 3. At least they showed some heart and won game 4. Again the Lee injury is crucial. I am not sold on Memphis. OKC is decimated without Westbrook, but have been in every game. That bothers me about Memphis. We shall see. Should be a fun 3-4 more weeks.

SA looked old in the OT yesterday. Their offense gets very stagnant. They should be attacking Curry with whoever he guards but GS has done a good job of hiding him.

Memphis wins again but I'm far from impressed. I think whoever wins the Warriors Spurs series will play Miami. I think the NBA would love GS vs Miami.
