Memphis continues their run
Defeat Okl City on the road on short rest to go up 1-0. Z. Randolph the star with 33 as he continues to play at high level...could this team make it to the finals?

I don't think this is so much of a "run" as it is they match up extremely well with the spurs and now the thunder. They had a winning record during the season against both teams.
On the offensive end, Ok City is a very flawed team. They have ZERO offense from the low post OR high post. Their point guard appears to be completely insane at times. Their best spark off the bench plays decently about every other game. The only dependable offense they have on the entire team is Durant. Memphis has two of the better perimeter defenders in the league in Tony Allen and Shane Battier. If Durant is contained and Westbrook is playing like a psycho, what can this team do???? Defensively, they are pretty good all the way around especially after they added Perkins. Even so, a huge team like Memphis still had their way inside as they did against the spurs which somewhat neutralizes the perimeter disadvantages. Based on sheer size alone, ok city will have to commit more men to defend the paint which will leave the Griz inferior perimeter players open. Dallas and the Lakers are both pretty big up front. They aren't getting to the finals although I think they have a great shot at getting past Ok city. |
