Pulling for the Warriors for selfish Grizzlies specific reasons and just general basketball fan reasons. Extended series means more rest for my Grizz. A 7 game series would mean whoever comes out of said series will likely be tired. If the Warriors win the series the Grizz end up with a better overall matchup. Not necessarily easier but better from a matchup perspective.

Good look for Curry. Better shot by Parker

...Michael Jordan's Bulls lost three or four times in the playoffs, mostly to the Pistons, before they broke through, the Warriors are on the right path, but they're not ready yet

Warriors had an impressive season. Nothing for those young guys to hang their heads about. They're only going to get better. That's a scary prospect (in a good way).

I want to see the Spurs face the Heat but rooting for the Grizzlies too. Either way, both teams would be cool against the Heat. Low post presence.

Should be a good series between the Griz and Spurs. Pretty much a coin flip. Another evenly matched series for Memphis. We'll see who comes out on top.

I like Indiana too though. They have a chance to upset. Pacers vs Grizzlies in the final would be a good matchup.

Talk about a slow brutal slugfest. If you like defense that would be the matchup you want. High scores in the 70's. LOL

...you're right Cristo, I should have compared the Warriors to a franchise like, uh, the Cavaliers...keep working hard Golden State, you can fail like Cleveland too—!zLOL.

With the sacrifices the Grizzlies had to make, I'm leaning towards them. Both are small market teams though. I think the Grizzlies became a better team by landing Tayshaun, even if it was because they couldn't afford Rudy Gay.

I watched the Kitchen Nightmares on these two. Elena looked them up and one thing they didn't mention on the show was that she called 911 and hung up. The police came to find out what was going on while they were berating a customer. This was before Ramsey even showed up. You could see a producer plead with them to not get into a physical altercation.

In 2004, when Google introduced Gmail, it wasn’t instantly obvious to everyone why the search engine phenom would want to get into the e-mail business. Actually, given that the company made its announcement on April 1, some people wondered, momentarily, whether the news was a hoax. Even once it was clear that Gmail was the real deal, Google felt the need, in the Gmail FAQ, to answer the burning question “Why is Google offering email? I thought you were a search company.” The era of people being confused by Gmail was so brief that it’s easy to forget such an era ever existed. Gmail quickly became not just one of Google’s core services but one of the web’s core services — the webmail client that came to define webmail clients even though it was far from the first one. Like most things Google does, Gmail hasn’t been without its controversies, but it’s still one of the company’s great success stories. I recently chatted with Alex Gawley, the service’s product manager, about Gmail’s first nine years — and a little bit about where it might be going.

The Spurs' veteran team didn't show it when they lost in the first round with the best record in the league a few years back. Anybody can lose. I think the Warriors match up well, if they're not in foul trouble.

Yeah, I'm definitely more scared being this close to 50 but that has a lot more to do with where I personally am in my life than the age of 50 itself. I'm sure other people do really well with it. (I'm permanently about 22 in my head...except slightly wiser and more world weary. You can be permanently 35 in your head!)
