CP3 played well in this game but he still drives me nuts. Take over man score.
The Clippers just played sort of meh in this game. I couldn't decide what team I wanted to win but I couldn't keep cheering for the clippers they just sort of meh. Houston isn't an amazing team but they played with more grit today and that's why they won imo.
Brewer keeps doing his thing I love seeing him do well but it sucks it's with another team.

Laughable.
I love seeing Brewer do well but it sucks it is for another team. The return got us the Kings 2nd rounder which is some decent value and we also are likely to get Houston's 2nd rounder next year as well and even though that's a low pick it's still worth having. Obviously I would rather have Brewer.
Good article on the Grizzlies: http://sports.yahoo.com/news/lack-outside-shooting-costs-grizzlies-playoffs-again-161008905--nba.html
There is nothing wrong with an inside-out approach to the game, with skilled post players like Gasol and Randolph (although I'd argue Gasol is probably at his best in the high post as a facilitator) being focal points. The problem is regardless of what kind of system you run, you have to have very good 3-point shooting, now more than ever.
I wanted the Grizzlies to succeed because there is something to be said for their grind-it-out/go big approach. But they simply didn't have the offensive horsepower (i.e. 3-point shooting) to get past Golden State.
For those of you looking to unload Kevin Martin, Memphis would be a good place to start.
