2012 NBA Playoffs: Game 5 Memphis Grizzlies vs. Los Angeles Clippers Game thread. Do or Die Baby!
GRZ_BM_Logo.jpg
This is it. Last game of the season or live to fight another day? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Can the real Grizzlies please show up? Please? These imposters we've seen for the vast majority of this series aren't getting it done. Let's get back to playing our game. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Great start for the Grizz! It's the Marc and Z-Bo show in the first quarter. We need to keep doing this. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Please no more Rudy ISOs. They killed us last game. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
What the heezy!?!? How was that a foul? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
That was straight out of the Vlade Divac school of flopping. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Mo Williams brought his a game tonight. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
The rest of the clips look flat right now. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Finally a traveling call on Flop Griffin. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Q-Pon with solid contribution so far. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Rudy needs to go to work in the post all day. His got a crazy mismatch. Stop the outside jumpers! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
If he could D-up Randy Foye too that would be nice too. Watch out if that dude gets hot. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Keep being aggressive Grizz. Lead down to 14. Keep the pedal to the metal. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Getting sloppy. If we let up a little they make you pay. Can't relax at all. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Get Z-Bo back in. The Gasol/Z-Bo connection was lethal earlier. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Whats the point difference now? - Abhishek
12 points. Was up to 18 or 19 I think. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
few from outside the ring needed... - Abhishek
Good. Take it straight at Griffin. His D is weak. He can't touch Marc of the defensive end. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Griffin's free throws have improved. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
That wasn't a flagrant foul. He just ran into the Q-Pon. Throwing the ball like that warranted the tech though. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Another missed layup for Tony Allen. Stick to defense my friend. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Marc held onto the ball too long there. And held the ball down too low. Chris Paul's steal was inevitable. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Randolph and Gasol are on the money today! - Abhishek
Randolph to Gasol. Gasol to Randolph. All day baby! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
That's only the 4th miss by Paul all series. Miss all you want CP3. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Free throws will kill you. Keep missing them please. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Marc is angry - Rodfather from iPhone
Booooooom!!!! Gasol is playing out of his mind right now. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Paul hacked the crap out of Marc. I'd be pissed too. Still made the shot. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Why couldn't we have played inside out style the entire series? It's our game. We're good at it. They can't handle it. Keep doing it. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Wonder of wonders. We cut back on the Rudy Gay dribble out the clock ISO plays and we're playing great. Just say no to the ISO. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Gasol has been disappearing in the second half pretty much all series. Can't have that happen today. You gon' play today. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Will the first half Grizz show up? Or will it be the 2nd half Grizz we've seen all series. I.E. the not-good Grizz. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Griffin with 3 fouls. Keep going at him. Get the flopper out of the game. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Heh. Pulled the chair from under him - Rodfather
Another Tony Allen missed layup. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
And another one. In his defense that was under duress. But still. Did you really need to go for the reverse Tony? I mean really? :-) - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Nicely done. Great D. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Bad pass by Conely. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
I hate to say it (sort of) but Rudy's poor game has been to our benefit. It's been all Rudy the last two games and look what that's gotten us. 2 L's. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
That was over the back by Griffin. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Clippers lack intensity this game. - Rodfather
19 point lead. Why am I nervous? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
...cuz the Grizzlies have been here before...you know, big lead, home game, yada, yada... - .LAG liked that
Griffin looks like a deer in headlights all series. Never looked comfortable. - Rodfather
He looked pretty comfortable last game. 30 points comfortable. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Still looks confused - Rodfather
...other than the monster dunks, what does Griffin really give you? - .LAG liked that
Grizzlies getting into foul trouble... uh-oh? - .LAG liked that
Showed some decent post moves last game. Don't know where he stole them but he looked pretty nice. The team must be staying at a Holiday Inn Express. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Not that worried about the foul situation yet. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Just waiting for it to be CP3 time. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Keep taking it to the hole! You're in the bonus! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Z-Bo gets hyped. You know he's really pumped when he misses his first free throw. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
...too much Randy Foye for the Clippers, why is the ball in his hands? - .LAG liked that
Yeah that fast break was really ugly. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Of course with Tony Allen running the break what do you expect. That's why they call him trick or treat. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
CP3 is over there licking his chops. Telling his guys we got this. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Mayo entry passes are scary. And not the good scary. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Good sportsmanship by Blake there. The flopper has some home training. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Throw him out! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Throw them all out! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Clippers are imploding right about now... - .LAG liked that
CP is still talking! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
I kind of doubt these T's are going pump them up to make another crazy comeback like in game 1 - Rodfather
Nah they're not imploding. They're right where CP3 wants them. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
i haven't been following the play-ioffs since the T-Wolves were eliminated from contention. #AroundWeek2oftheRegularSeason #OkayMaybeWeek3 - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ
Nah they were in it until about Mid-March. Kevin Love getting hurt knocked them out of contention. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Clippers are proving why they are, well, the Clippers - .LAG liked that
Can we make the technical free throws? Please! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
We need all the points we can get. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Ok. Clippers are imploding - Rodfather
(Reference game 1 for evidence) - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Rubio's injury is what did the Wolves in, not Love's. - chrisofspades
Dang it! We could have gotten 4 points there. Instead we only got 2 that were quickly negated by Mo Williams corner 3. Can't let up. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
...I agree with Dick Stockton: Grizzlies have nothing to worry about until the lead gets to 27 points - .LAG liked that
Rubio going out doomed them. Love going down was the last nail. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
I'm glad the crowd is bringing it tonight. Looking at forums and the local papers that last few days everybody has been down (except the team itself). - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
The Grindhouse is grinding the clips up tonight. Wish I was there. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Booo. That was a ticky tack foul right there. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
CP3 is hurt. Jammed his middle finger on shooting hand in the first quarter. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Yet again. An example of OJ's bad entry passing. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Griffin may be hurt... - .LAG liked that
What's up with Rudy with the ice pack on his surgically repaired shoulder? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Don't want to see Griffin hurt. Hate to see anybody hurt. Especially knees. I can relate. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Yeah. That's not cool fellow Grizz fans. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Gasol has 4 fouls... - .LAG liked that
I swear Hack-a-Griffin is becoming less and less affective. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Mo Speights sighting. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
...down to 14 points - .LAG liked that
...down to 12 points - .LAG liked that
Game. On. - .LAG liked that
In the immortal words of Mark Jackson "Hand down. Man down." - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Marc being out isn't going to help us hold off this run they're about to go on/are on. Paging Z-Bo. Paging Rudy. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Dang, I'm stuck at work, but I was following on Gamecast and the Clips went from down 20+ to down 12 in just a couple of minutes. - Andrew C (✓)
They need to put Conley back on. OJ is too shakey at the point tonight. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Here we go. The 4th quarter. The Grizzlies achilles heel. Hopefully the coaches have reminded them that the game is 48 minutes long not 40. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Finally Evans is being called for his hacking. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Could we please guard the 3 on the wing. Please. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
...down to 10 points - .LAG liked that
Getting tight. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Ugh. Not again. Please. I can't take it again. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
...yeah, the Grizzlies do look like they're getting tight! - .LAG liked that
BTW, I'm a #Knicks fan, and misery loves company... another Grizzly collapse would be entertaining (sorry DB) - .LAG liked that
Let's get Marc back in there. Calm this thing down. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Let's get back to the Marc and Zach show. I liked that show. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Aside: Why would they let Rihanna anywhere near a major motion picture? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Team tight. Crowd tight. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Here we go - Rodfather
Uh-oh! - .LAG liked that
Another flop by Evans. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
That wasn't a flop C-Webb? Really? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Air. Ball. - .LAG liked that
Where's Tony Allen? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Uh-oh! - .LAG liked that
Get Tony back it! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Wow. She was cute. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Nervous hottie. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Please don't turn this into the Rudy ISO show again Coach Hollins. Please. I beg you. Rudy ain't got it tonight. Feed the beast(s). - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Let's get this back up to 10. Then twelve. And also play the hell out of some defense. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Why the heezy isn't our best defender in the game!!!!!!!! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
CP3 back in we should be putting TA back in. What are you doing coach? - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Q-Pon is nice but we need Tony Allen. Come on coach. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
CP3's injury may be a factor... - .LAG liked that
Score the ball! - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Clippers have had some poor shot selection down the stretch... I'll be shocked if the Grizzlies blow it now... - .LAG liked that
Getting stops and then not scoring ain't helping us. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Is there time left on the clock? Yeah they could still blow it. :-( - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
We need to bang it inside. Make good entry passes. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Oh yeah. And score the ball. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
And make your dang free throws. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
8 pt lead for MEM, 59.9 seconds left. ... in the time it took me to type that, it became a 6 pt lead with 55.7 left. And then Z-Bo made a FT to get it back to 7 pts. - Andrew C (✓)
Grizz really needs Z Bo to play like he did during last year's playoffs. - Rodfather
...that's the dagger - .LAG liked that
I'm breathing now. *Looks around for Reggie Miller* - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
back to Staples - .LAG liked that
That groin injury doesn't look good for CP3 - Rodfather
Clipper injuries to CP3 and Griffin could be problems - .LAG liked that
CP3 hurt again. Griffin gimpy. I don't like to see anybody hurt but it definitely opens up an opportunity for us. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Paul will be good as new on Friday. Griffin too probably. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Hah. What was that? Mo falling down - Rodfather
Still no Zach and Marc for the most part in the second half. That's got to change. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Congrats! :) - Oğuz Demirkapı ☮
I wonder is Allen's knee is bothering him again. He didn't see the floor at all in the 4th quarter. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
I definitely like the better effort tonight. CP3 injury could prove to be huge. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Haha. Making jokes with Siri. - Rodfather
Yeah that was funny. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
Staying up watching the post game stuff is much easier when your team wins. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
The Stapler is gonna be rockin' on Friday night. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
LAC FTW! :) - Oğuz Demirkapı ☮
If we can get this same effort in Game 6 we will have a Game 7 in the Grindhouse. If not we're goin' fishin'. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
All this effort to repair the damage done by blowing game one. Hope we have enough to finish this series off and move on. - DB, Just DB #TeamMonique
LAC had no luck today. :/ - Oğuz Demirkapı ☮ from FreshFeed
