Memphis = deja vu

[No coincidences]

Feel like it's the exact same game compared to the first time around against OKC at home. They just can't hang.

[t-wizzle]

Let's wait and see what happens. Still the fourth quarter to play. Memphis could get off to a hot start in the fourth and retake the lead.

[B1AZE]

Looking that way huh?

[hawley]

Gay needs to match Durant down the stretch shot for shot

[Pauulzcappin]

I agree coin. we are done.

First time around, Grizz folded in a critical stretch early in the fourth. I think it went from 4 to like 13.

We'll see what happens tonight.

[CheeseHead]

It doesn't look like they're going to be able to get it done...seemed "too easy" to take the Thunder but I don't see them losing now..even with the small lead in the 4th

Relax dude. 6 minutes to go.

Relax dude. 6 minutes to go.

Hope you're right, but I've seen this act before.

[suicidekings]

The Grizz are a bad bet with Randolph out because it's forcing Gasol to play extended minutes as the only legit big man Memphis has. He's tired, and it's been showing. The Grizz desperately need Haddadi back in game shape to get 10 minutes a game spotting Gasol. Their entire team identity is based on controlling the paint at both ends, so they're out of step right now.

[Kadinni]

Guys, this isnt the Memphis team of last year. Last year they played WITHOUT Gay, they worked off Z-bo and Marc, playing inside-out. But when Gay was put back into the lineup, it changed everyones role. Id stay away from this team for a bit, there could be some locker problems if they lose this game.

[Pauulzcappin]

My ML bet is toast. Hope you guys can hit the spread.

DOwn about 1500 on the Grizz so far this year

[I am Happy]

Rudy fing gay

[beg154860]

what's the lean on the lakers suns game

[B1AZE]

Rudy Gay sucks....they are better without him.

[CheeseHead]

Hope you're right, but I've seen this act before.

Well...Memphis had their chances... But I guess we shoulda went square, not over thought this, and went with OKC. Then again, that same thinking woulda gave me a loss on the Spurs/Bucks game, which I won with the Bucks +2. Probably would have lost with the Wizards with that same thinking too. Hard to tell what games are "traps"...usually the lines that come out say something for themselves, but not always. Thought the line in this game was begging for people to bet on OKC. Still learning when to make these kinds of plays in "good spots".

[No coincidences]

f\*\*k.

[COYLO]

fukin rigged that gay fuk is gay

[Andrewsurf]

Memphis are a different team, and OKC are stronger then ever. Just swept their back-to-back-to-back and the starters averaged around 30 minutes. They are deep, young, and dominant. Beware betting against this OKC team.

[Seto]

Rudy Gay 1 for 5 from the line and the key turnover... And Conley's missed layup means we don't even get a push. Awful game to watch if you bet MEM

[COYLO]

foul after foul after foul wtf

[beg154860]

yeah so chase that shit what's the play lakers or suns

This team is really missing Randolph. I think this is last time I back Grizzlies until they get him back. All last year he was clutch when they needed it. Noboby on this team can step up and make a big shot when they need it right now. They look completely out of sync at times and don't know how to attack the paint.

I don't get how you can say "you won't back a team until...." So no matter what the line is you won't back it? Even if they are put in a great position. All today I read about people crying about backing the Wizards and how they are so bad, yet they were the best play today. You have to keep an open mind, and you can't get to caught up with the now. Memphis nearly covered. I got them at +3, only missed by 2 points. If memphis covered we would all be proclaiming our love for the grizz.

[YOUNGBUCK]

Grizz burn me again but I'm not scared to back them when I see a line I like

i don't think that goofy fukk has ever been in game shape.

I thought that guy left the NBA to become a rabbi or something.

no, he just isn't very good and tends to ride the pine. he showed some flashes of potential in limited minutes his first year, but he wasn't in game shape then. he was very efficient, getting a decent amount of boards, blocks and points in 10 or less minutes a game. but he's sucked overall. for whatever reason the grizzlies just re-signed him.

If I get Grizzlies +15 against Pistons at home yeah I will back them, but with a +/-3 spread against a middle tier or better team no I wont, but thats just me. So yes I can't really say "I would never back them" I have my strategies as does everyone and one of the best strategies a capper has is when to pass on a game.

Also, Wizards are a highly unpredictable team and I would never consider them a best play any day but thats just my opinion. It was a nice easy win for Wizard backers covered by 12 and never in doubt, but personally I would pass on that game 10 out of 10 times given the line and situation for both teams. Unless it was only game on that day then the degenerate would probably kick in.

But at this point, they just need that 7'2", 265lb frame in the paint contesting shots and sharing the rebounding load. Gasol played another 42+ minute game tonight, which isn't something that can continue if the Grizz are going to have a good season.

Good point SK.

I mean, dude. Randolph is gone and they didn't have gay for about 70% of the season last year so he's going to suck for a while. Also, this is a lockout season so that is going to increase the amount of rustiness with the Grizzlies offense since they didn't have a sufficient training camp.

[Speedy88]

With any RLM I'll take the Wizards against anyone.
