THUNDER 95 GRIZZLIES 98 F OT...GRINDING through Regulation and an Extra Frame the GRIZZ grab the 2%, kiss the GRIZZ Dancers, and hit the Winner's Circle as KD and RUSS star in "ALL or NOTHING"...REGULATORS Report OKC gone bad! #OKCvsMEM #ThunderUp #GrizzNation MEM leads 2-1

The OKC Thunder at least sent it to Extras after being down by 17 in the 2nd half. Just like the is no crying in Big Boy Hardball well thee are no moral victories in the Logo in Winning Time. What your witnessing is the Parity in the Logo coupled with who really is a Star...and who isn't. Take for instance PG-24 of the Pacers handshake with King James in last years playoffs...where is PG-24 now Pacers B-Team as an overhyped offensively challenged solid defender...that's it nothing else!

The Grizz took control of the game in the 2nd half and OKC came roaring back only to fall short in extras. It's not that KD and Russ are the problem it's OKC's Approach and that is on Scott Brooks.  Memphis' Bench outscoring OKC's Bench 34-9. OKC is getting nothing from anyone else and if KD and Russ and Ibaka do not play both ends of the floor and rebound all the oranges...OKC is a wash. They had a combined 60 points, twenty-two rebounds, five helpers, nine turnovers, and five blocks. OKC had 95 points total and with just three players in double figures.

The Grizz gets six players in double figures and someone new every night off that bench steps up and Coach Joerger had done a nice job of mix and matching and putting players in places where they will play to their strengths. Mike Conley led with 20 points with Z-Bo and the "Grind Father" Tony Allen adding sixteen points each.

Grizz leads 2-1 as Game 4 is Saturday Night April 26th at 9:30pm ET...
