So I missed the first half and then the halftime crew is saying that Green should not have been ejected.

Then I see the play and it is completely understandable that a flagrant 2 is called.

I think ESPN announcers defer to Clutch Sports clients like they are afraid to criticize or to not defend them.

**** YEAH

Great win

KC_Connection · 05-01-2022, 04:33 PM

If Memphis can’t win that game at home without Draymond in, I could see them getting swept. Just way too inexperienced ultimately.

Sassy Squatch · 05-01-2022, 04:34 PM

Probably aren't even going to win one.

You can’t do what Draymond did to a guy in the air in the NBA. Was it flagrant 2 worthy? Debatable but this guy has a history of this kind of shit so I don’t blame the refs at all.

Bucks/Heat

Warriors/Suns

Memphis needs to stop letting the other teams dictate how they play. They are not a 3 point shooting team. They for some reason just went away from slashing to the basket. Brooks is needed on the defensive end, but he can kill the offensive momentum if his shot is not going. He’s completely streaky. I think getting our centers back and being able to control the flow of the game a little more by controlling the paint will help a lot. Looks like it’s going to be a great series.

Healthy Suns and healthy Bucks are the only teams that can beat the Warriors right now IMO so that's who I'm rooting for.

KCUnited · 05-01-2022, 04:54 PM

Great game. Memphis defense in the last couple minutes was sad. Just leaving guys open under the basket.

Hoping for a good series but they looked a bit tired and outmatched.

Ja Morant joins LeBron James and Kobe Bryant as the only players with multiple 45-point games in the playoffs before turning 23 years old per @ESPNStatsInfo

This guy coaches Draymond right?

I'm pulling for Memphis but I have a hard time seeing them winning this series. Curry and Klay were cold from three and Morant needed to put up almost 50 to win a close one at home.

**dirk digler** · 05-04-2022, 07:13 AM

Dillion Brooks should be and I expect to suspended. That was one of the dirtiest plays I have seen in years. GP3 has a fractured elbow is done for the year.

Let’s hope so. As a Grizz fan it was nice to not have him on the offensive end screwing up the momentum this game. It let Ja just be Ja and the results were nice to see. GP3 will have to wise up and learn how to fall in the NBA. That injury isn’t on Brooks. Most people are smart enough to know not to try and catch themselves with their arm nowadays. Kerr’s comments about it are hilarious. If he really cared about the “code” of basketball Draymond Green wouldn’t be on his team. No one is feeling sorry for the dirty Warriors.
