The Memphis Grizzlies didn't see this coming nor did a lot of folks in the know. The San Antonio blew the Grizz out in Game 1, get a "W" in Extras in game two, and now win game three on the Grizz' Home Court in the Grind House...remarkable.
The Spurs beat the Grizz 104-93 in Extras again to take a commanding 3-0 lead and the Grizz are deep deep Grizz droppings. Dunc goes "Retro Night" with 24 points, ten boards, and five helpers on a day where everyone hears the bad news of Duncan's Family Situation. He is a Hall Of Famer to be and that "Stuff" won't bother Timmy at all as he is a Professionals Professional. Spurs Point God TP9 (with a supposed bad wheel a Calf issue) 26 points and five helpers. And of course Manu Ginoboli doing what Manu does at this time with 19 points, seven rebounds, and five helpers in just under thirty minutes. The Spurs go into the Grind House and shoot some 50% from the field and the Bench played big with Manu's 19.
The Grind House Grizz are officially in the Hole and if they fall there will be no one to pick them up. They can't shoot below 40% from the Field and the Arc (even though they do not shoot the Money Ball well anyway) and under 75% from the Charity Stripe after a home-cooked meal and expect to get a "W". Couple all of that and their bench gets outscored 36-24...it's time to head to Beale Street for "Last Call". Conley Jr. continues his rise amongst the Point God Elite in the Logo leading the Grizz with 20 points. The Grizz Bigs tried to play their favorite movie and they would have played it with a "W". Z-Bo nets 14 points and fifteen boards while Marc Gasol (with Big Bro Pau in the Luxury Suites tuning in) added 16 points, fourteen boards, and five helpers. Too much Spurs Championship Grind and Grit...what else.
Game 4 will be on Memorial Day Night at 9pm ET on NBA on ESPN...
