if i was to bet the grizzlies to cover and win or just cover the game, my arguments would be as follows:
1.memphis are a better defensive team who have not allowed much points at home and certainly not at the level the warriors need to win the games.
2. memphis eliminated the main weapon of the warriors by not letting stephen curry a clear view and making him to shoot 4-21 from outside the perimeter.
3. memphis knows what the playoffs are and have played gruelingseries in the past with almost the same players.
4. in a clean basketbakll competition if it was played at the street ball arena on the sixth avenue at the nyc - the grizzlies would have eaten the warriors without the salt
if i was to bet the warriors to cover or at least to win the game - i'd be quoting espn preview of the game:
1.It hasn’t been Kerr’s tendency to sugarcoat when things go badly, as they so rarely have for the Warriors this season. So it was surprising to see a fairly calm assessment of the newly 1-2, up-against-it Warriors. Later, Kerr conceded there was “some lack of poise” because the Warriors didn’t trust a mostly good process after they missed shots in the first quarter. They were rushing instead of playing fast, and they were making mistakes.
This measured attitude was mirrored in the locker room. After Game 2, Golden State’s locker room was sullen and silent. After suffering a defeat in Game 3, the Warriors players were loose, prone to a laugh here and there.
this tells me they are either idiots not understanding that memphis is drubbing them - or they know they are going to bag the game 4 and tie the series and that is the reason they have lost so identically both games.
please read this quote too:
Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr said his team lost its “poise” after it fell behind early, turned the ball over and missed 20 3-pointers in Game 2. Then, in a 99-89 Game 3 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, the Warriors fell behind early, turned the ball over and missed 20 3s. The response from Kerr?
“I wouldn’t say we lost our poise,” Kerr said. “I thought this was a better effort than Game 2.”
What?
2. the warriors have yet tpo find the target and once they will - the memphis story will be over
which is right? who knows - i will most probably stay out and see how it develops only to know what to do in game 5
