Tonight's espn game, and the game is the first time in nba history that two squads with 19+ victories will meet in the first 23 games of the either team's schedule.

And I have to miss it to pick the in laws up at the airport. Double negative.

These next 4 games:

GSW
@SA
Bulls
@Cleveland

Least confident about the SA game with the remainders a distant 2nd.

Probably would take 2-2 over these 4

Refs making a lot of ticky tack calls against the Grizzlies right now.

Refs ignore traveling rules on a Conley layup and Kerr and Iguodala get technicals. 4 point play.

Sloppy officiating most of the night from what I've seen for both teams.

I started watching just before the traveling. I'm rooting for the Grizz tonight.

Golden State got away with multiple travels tonight and the Grizz got away with that one that Conley had.

2nd unit for the Grizz was huge tonight, extended the lead in the first half and held their own in the 2nd.

Big win. Hopefully we can get the win tomorrow night @SA, that one would be really big.

That 2nd unit, especially in the 2nd quarter was amazing.

GSW are going to be real tough to beat in the playoffs. Lee and Bogut would make a difference because it would move Speights to that 2nd unit. However, between Curry, Lee, and Bogut, I don't think the Warriors make it to the playoffs healthy.

At first I didn't understand why GSW wouldn't give up Klay Thompson in the Kevin Love deal, but I get it. Very valuable to that team.

I've been saying for a couple years now that the Warriors are going to be among the scariest squads in the West for years. They'e got shooters, defenders, size, and versatility.

Thought Memphis sent a pretty good message to the rest of the league tonight.

Whenever we play GSW, I am constantly reminded about how Lionel Hollins wanted Stephen Curry in the draft, but Heisley and Barone Sr wanted ... (insert derogatory curse word of choice here) Hasheem Thabeet. I believe Wallace wanted Tyreke.

I think I might start drinking early today as I think back to that draft, especially in preparation for a likely blowout tonight.

Don't think it'll be a blowout as Kawhi, Parker and Mills are all out tonight.

Looking forward to it though.

Are both sides seriously giving reasons why the other one will blow them out?

Moby Dick is the white whale.

Spurs without Parker and Leonard. That should help tonight.

Great start. Vince Carter looking really good on both ends tonight making 3's and making defensive steals and plays.

Grizzlies can't buy a foul call. Big time home cooking right now for SA. Just 1 team foul on SA in the 2nd Q with under 3:00 left.

Grizz letting a big 23 point lead slip away. Down to 10 with 1 minute left before half.

Catastrophic end to the half. 22-8 run over the last 6 minutes. Give up a 3 point (almost a 4 point play) to allow the Spurs to cut the lead to 7.

Man, Grizz just can't handle success, must play a tight game.

6 fouls called on SA, 3 of them to Splitter.

I grow weary of Courtney Lee fouling jump shooters and then looking at the refs with arms up in disbelief.
It's like twice a game, and at some point, it's you, Courtney, not the refs.

I think in general Memphis gets shafted by the refs every night. Conley gets about the least amount of respect of any point guard in the league. I've seen Tony Parker and Chris Paul get calls all game long when they attack the rim yet Conley has to get prison raped to get a call when he drives.

I agree on Conley, or at least it isn't consistent with what CP3 and Harden get.

I hate the way that jump shooters are protected with touch fouls on the perimeter, and if a guy drives from perimeter to lane he initiates contact and gets the foul call, while post players get mauled and do not get the call. Not just Gasol and Randolph, but Cousins, Howard, Splitter, etc.

Not job getting the lead back to 15.
Now lets just keep Calathes out of the game.

And Conley gets arm barred by Joseph and gets hit with an offensive foul. Crazy. Grizz are fighting through it though. They need to keep this 15 point lead going into the 4th...

No such luck. They put him in and the Spurs immediately cut 9 off the lead. Don't understand Joerger's need to play him instead of Udrih.

Now Beno back in the game for Calathes.

Grizz having trouble with this Spurs zone D and are unraveling on offense. Spurs currently on a 12-0 run and the Grizz haven't scored in over 3 minutes while SA has been nailing 3s.

Big play by VC, followed by VC just watching and not getting a loose ball, but also not covering the 3 point shooter

Jesus 16 posts since I left. I thought someone on the Grizzlies either was putting in the game of their life or got shot.

Grizz not doing what got them the lead, game now tied. They are trying to help on defense too much and leaving guys wide open now, just play straight up, its like they never learn when they play the Spurs that they can't sag off any of these guys to try to help. Trust your ****ing teammates.

And on offense are just passing up too many shots to try to make the extra pass.
