CP3 cooked them. Amazing player. But he’s gonna wear down again. I don’t see them beating GS in a 7 game series tbh. Should be fun though.

Meh, he’s had a lot more rest this year. Last year he was struggling in the playoffs out of the gate, some of that due to injuries. I think they’ve handled him perfectly this year AND he’s healthy… knock on wood.

Those two were beyond impressive. Luca looking around like, "Why don't I have help like that?"

Because they're not playing against Utah's defense.

Embiid out for game 3. Yeah, that series is all but over.

KCUnited 05-07-2022 04:18 PM

Wow.

That was a physical game.

KC_Connection 05-07-2022 08:52 PM

Softest ejection in history there on Anderson.

KC_Connection 05-07-2022 08:59 PM

And Morant injures his knee, which may take away the (minimal) intrigue this series had left.

Yeah if he is out this series gets a lot harder to win for Memphis. It was going to be tough anyway if GS hits their normal shots

They're not winning this series anyway. Way too inexperienced. But the only real reason to watch it (at least for me) was to see Ja have a challenge against this team.

Guessing Memphis will be looking for a suspension here from the league like Brooks got if Morant is seriously hurt.

POND_OF_RED 05-07-2022 09:20 PM

Jenkins really needs to switch up this gameplan. We’re never going to outshoot GS from 3. Obviously having Brooks out showed on the defensive side tonight with Curry able to just walk it to the hoop. It was a nice strategy by Kerr to switch to the zone and slow down the momentum Memphis started with. I think we need to get back to a physical lineup and try to get back to what got us here. Leading the league in points in the paint, offensive rebounds, and steals. The old fashioned grit and grind. Obviously GS is tough to contain, but we need to get way more physical on the defensive end. I think Brooks can set a different tone on defense the next game, but hopefully he has a decent offensive showing though. With all the hate coming his way he’s going to want to shoot way more than he should. It’s just how he is. Should be a big game 4.

Ja going all in as well.
