Game 6: OKC @ MEM In Game Thread

[suicidekings]

First timeout called at 6 minutes into the game by the Grizz. The live line on Pinnacle has already flipped to OKC -3.5, ML -160.

Down only 7 after 6 minutes of play and the line moves 5 points... The books think the Thunder are going to beat the Grizzlies tonight. Bet accordingly.

Tied just like that..

Tied just like that..

The lead was not the issue. It was the early timeout call by Hollins and the large adjustment by the books to the live line.

[Allure]

OKC tries everything to lose this one. How many TO's do they already have. Come on, NBA obviously needs a 7 game series.

[NFL49ers]

heheh yeah too many TO by OKC which is unusual.

Go GIZZ!!

The NBA doesn't need anything else from this series. With the ideal matchup in the East and Dallas likely to beat whichever team emerges from this game, the emphasis has shifted to the Conference finals. This series ends tonight.

you are clueless. thats what happens when a team thats only favored by 1.5 is down by 7 early, it has nothing to do with the books "thinking" okc will win

Thunder without Durant = Euroleague team

[suicidekings]

Now the Grizzlies up by 5 and the line moves to MEM -4.5, only 2.5 points off the original line.

Well, if you say so, GL. I think the Grizzlies take this one, especially Westbrook.. come on, what exactly is he doing out there?

[smarsh816]

i'm enlightening readers to the ignorance masquerading as handicapping "expertise" of which you seem to be an egregious offender

[hawley]

Sefolosha leading the team in minutes is always a bad sign...

[vincanity15]

[Speedy88]

Haha nice. I was so confused when I saw OKC got an extra 2 points, but I just assumed ESPN was right and I was wrong.

[smarsh816]

these team are just playing to play they aint gonna make it past dallas they are gonna be so wore the hell out

[Speedy88]

OKC should just play a zone. Memphis is such a bad perimeter shooting team. Only guy that can hit an outside shot consistently on their team is Mayo.

You can play zone's in the NBA without getting a 3 second call. A lot of teams in the NBA use 2-3 zones. Most are match-up zones.

so you propose having no one in the key? lol i would love to see how that zone does

wrong, the answer is very few and those that do aren't successful
