I don't remember who I was discussing it with, but Z-Bo in the playoffs is a very different beast than Z-Bo in the regular season. Draymond wasn't on him 100% of the time, but in either matchup (Z-Bo or Gasol), I thought he was on the losing side. Unfortunately, I don't know if it will matter for Memphis because not having Conley ruins their chances of winning this series.

I was on the other end, but yeah ZBo had a solid game 20 and 9 on efficient shooting. I didn't watch the whole game, but when I was Gasol was guarded by Draymond and ZBo by Bogut. Both guys had solid games. But in this series they're going to need to be better than that.

I was pretty down about the conley injury. Memphis was rolling and Conley was playing great. The games are called totally differently too in the Playoffs. Zbo is a perfect animal to bang it up and get away with it.

Thank God Conley's back. Also, Tony Allen was tremendous. Z-Bo did what I expected him to. Gasol didn't have his best night, but still produced.

Let's go Grizzlies. I hope they win as I personally hate the style of basketball the Warriors play.

Yeah, now that the Spurs are out, Memphis is the team I want to come out of the West. It was a fun game to watch (if you are not a Warriors fan)!

I love the Warriors, I just think that the griz are a great throwback team and at full strength make for an excellent matchup with the Warriors, which is really all I am looking for in the playoffs where the Wolves are not included.

I am pulling for the Griz to win it all. They have been good for so long and have been denied by the Spurs countless times. I would be nice to see them break through.

Yes, it's a nice contrast in styles. I'm also flat out jealous of Golden State and the near perfect starting lineup they have constructed. It's like the ideal starting 5 in the modern day NBA: An elite defensive 5, a swiss army knife 4, a 3 &D 3, and two sweet shooting guards. It would be nice for someone that plays smashmouth ball to punch them in the face!
