This Wizards team has performed above and beyond what the country has expected of them. If Nene didn¡¯t get ejected in game 3, they might have swept the Bulls 4-0, without home court advantage. That¡¯s a tough feat going against a grimy Bulls team.
Despite that, this team will be playing in its first elimination game as a unit, and on the road? and in CHI Town? Get ready for a 17-point quarter because the Wiz Kids are going to fall flat on their faces tonight in what will be a game 7 for the Bulls. This should be an old fashioned Bully Beatdown Blowout. (BBB!)
Memphis Grizzlies @ Oklahoma City Thunder
Reggie Jackson came up huge for us and it was well needed. Memphis hasn't lost at home in over two months, yet the Thunder were leading all game long until a 4th quarter collapse, despite Durant and Westbrook having one of the worst shooting performances of there careers. Memphis knows how to defend OKC, but OKC hasn't played their best since game 1 of this series. Memphis has proved they can play the Thunder very tough, especially at home, but I think it's time for OKC to play a complete game.
Memphis had a chance to rob OKC blind of a well needed win in game 4, but fell short. OKC did what they needed to do, win 1 of 2 in Memphis and recapture home court advantage. I don't see anyway they give it right back. Let's not forget how dominant Memphis has been at home over the past few months, literally not losing in over 80 days. But they finally lost, and that was with Westbrook and Durant shooting a combined 24%. Memphis hasn't been as dominant on the road however.
Durant + Westbrook's Shooting Percentages this Series:
¡¤G1 (h): 48%
¡¤G2 (h): 41%
¡¤G3 (a): 36%
¡¤G4 (a): 24%
OKC cruises to a comfortable double-digit victory here in what will be the second Bully Beatdown Blowout of the night.

I'm on it, LC. Bulls, OKC and also on the Clippers (but only half the amounts you put up as I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel these days). Normally I would be worried about 3 favs covering, but they're not all public favs, so that is a relief. I think Jackson saving the season took a lot of pressure off these guys, so OKC should roll. I know you have bot had much luck with the Clips this year but I think you should consider them tonight as Silver just took a lot of pressure off that team, as they can now focus on the game and the task at hand. In essence, the narrative has been flipped and the team/players are now seen as victims who should be supported rather than jeered.

Looks like the Bulls already have their vacations planned and stretching it to 7 may interfere. I was expecting Noah to get something going inside the paint. Nope not this series. Really need Deng this year. Augustine is streaky and Kirk looks afraid out there. Coaching is eh. Can't close out a game with a 10 point lead in the 4th. Goodluck Bulls are do for a blowout.

Grizz almost won Game 4 with a virtual no-show by Randolph and poor efforts by Lee and Conley, it took a monster effort by back-up PG Reggie to save face for KD, Russell and Brooks. Tony Allen is in KD's head and Memphis has been the better team for a longer sustained period in this series. Brooks' philosophy is to get the ball to KD and/or Westbrook and hope for the best, he is a bad coach who was fortunate to receive two young stars in their prime but yet still fails to get it right.
Grizz aren't overly great on the road but in what is now a best-of-3 series, this team is far too resilient to back down and know Game 5 is their best shot at stealing another game in OKC.
Nothing I have seen so far in this series says the Thunder blowout Memphis tonight, only thing to hang your hat on is that Durant and Russell are due to have a big game yet the 'numbers' say they're not.
Could say the Grizz are also due for a complete game especially Z-Bo given his offensive struggles.
Solid work so far, btw but have to disagree tonight.
