West Finals will be Grizzlies vs. Warriors.

The only thing the Spurs can do to save the series is to ink tattoos all over GSW players' bodies somehow. And maybe over Mark Jackson as well. Only way.
This would weaken their defense tremendously and enable chucking more off the dribble through double team hands.

....don't think that would work. They already have enough ink to start up a prosperous side show at a Circus! What the Spurs need to do is perhaps use the tattoo's they already have as a "distraction" in some form of "trash talking" during the game! Something like "exactly HOW drunk were you when you got THAT one?" or "that one looks BADLY infected....have you had that checked recently?"

If stef and Klay stay hot they might get past SA.

SA is just to experienced for this young Warriors team right now. Looking like a Memphis, SA West finals. NBA can't be happy about that. If you were to go from the view of your average fan that isn't a fan of those 2 teams it would be a pretty boring series.

I am more excited to see the Grizz advance than the despised OKC.
I can only conclude that I am an elite fan.

Again, as I always say, this is not profession boxing or wrestling. Who the crap cares what the NBA or the fans think? If the two best teams in the West playing for the Western Conference Championship is a "boring" series, maybe all the big market teams should just secede from the NBA and start their own little league. Why do the Spurs and the Grizzlies even play basketball if what they do is considered "boring"? Gosh, they shouldn't be able to play if they aren't deemed "exciting" in your eyes. I made the prediction of Golden State vs. Memphis before San Antonio won Game 3 in Oakland to re-take HCA. I must now adjust my prediction and say that the West Finals will be Memphis vs. San Antonio (I think that the Spurs will beat the Warriors in Game 7). I don't trust the Spurs enough to pick them to beat Memphis, even if they have HCA.

....they already have one of those leagues! It's called the "AND1 League"! You can palm, travel, walk, talk, double dribble, triple dribble, do the crab crawl and a host of other funky things that they constitute as "basketball!"

Exactly. I couldn't have said it better myself. Winning NBA basketball is defensive basketball. That is what the Spurs and Grizzlies do best. That is why they made it to the conference finals. Who cares if they aren't "exciting"? They earned where they are and they deserve it.

Grizz pose a threat to the Heat.

I don't think the Spurs do at all.

Grizz have the size and strength inside to maybe win a game or two.

Actually, IMO, the team that would really pose a threat to the Heat would be the New York Knicks if they can get by Indiana. They beat Miami 3 of the 4 times they met during the regular season. 2 of NY's wins were in Miami, so would HCA really be that big of a factor in the series?

...to beat the Heat you have to have AA (athletic ability) AND brains! The only team that is still left is really the Spurs! You saw how they took apart the Warriors despite two horrendous shooting nights by Parker and Ginobli! But they had 20 assists between them!

....you've got to be kidding, right? Mello and his partner in crime J.R. Smith would be locked down and knocked out by the Heat in a 7 game series. It would be a battle of the "jailhouse tats"....and the Heat would win handsdown!
