    Can Memphis recover from this lost

    A choke job like this can bury a team, I mean this has to be in their heads. The Grizzilies has been riding the momentum the entire series. I think the Spurs has turned the tables and this young Memphis team won't recover from such a devastating lost.

    I think the game in Memphis will be close...they will have to have a great all out effort to knock out the #1 seed

    That means Sterns will want to still see his number 1 remain alive for as long as they can.

    If you had asked me game 1, I would've said the series was rigged for spurs to win. timmy isn't michael jordan, but he's more a superstar than Z-Bo.

    But seeing how they blew games 3 and 4... I don't know. They got awful lucky today. If Neal didn't make the shot, they would've lost, although it was obvious the refs were on their side.

    To me, the x-factor is Parker/conley and the Spur's bench. If the bench can show up, they may have a chance... but I put money on Griz winning the series... that's how good I think the Griz are and how mediocre the spurs are.

    Unfortunately I think the Spurs end up winning the series.

    It really wasn't so much of a chokejob as it was a great effort by SA. They hit two crazy 3's in a row when Memphis had hit every FT. Memphis was a 7 point dog tonight that really shouldn't have even had a chance to win and it took a miracle from SA to win. Memphis is fine.

    The Key thing is momentum. The Grizzilies has finally faced adversity, where their 3 wins everything was going in. The Spurs had chances to win game 1 and 3 but couldn't put a lid on those wins. Now that the monkey off their back, this team will go back to playing freely again. Where for a Memphis, any miss shots or mistake they make in the next game will magnified. Because they're going to be thinking, they should not even be in this position to begin with.

    If the Grizzlies find a way to lose game 6 at home they won't have much chance at San Antonio in 7, but they have a really good chance of stealing the series in 6.

    With a young team, it's about forgetting this game. It's tough for a young team to do...

    -- admitted that the Grizzlies surrendered so meekly in OT because they were still hung up about the Spurs' great escape. "We had too many guys that were hurt and not mature enough at this stage [to] just let [the regulation ending] go," Hollins said.

    "They are like vampires," Memphis' Shane Battier said on his way out of the AT&T Center,...You gotta drive the stake through their heart. And we missed."

    It should be a good game 6, I like the Spurs in a tight game.
