OT: Grizzlies crossing fingers they'll face injured Warriors in WCF

The Grizzlies just dont have a closer. Stephen A Smith was yelling about it today on ESPN First Take and it's true. Conley is a great player, not a closer. The Warriors probably have a top 10 closer in the game.

I'm interested in seeing what Memphis does in the offseason. I'd like to see them improve at the SF position. Prince probably won't cut it.

 

Rudy Gay was the only guy on that team who could create his own shot at the end of a game...

 

Since his new thread got closed, I thought this one should be bumped again.

KingSpeed was right...

 

Warriors don't have a closer. If they had a closer, they would've won Game 1 vs Spurs. Curry is third quarter player. Closest thing to closer Warriors have is Jack and he is not top 10. Thanks PapaG.

 

I must admit, it was weird rooting for Golden State. Maybe the Baron Davis smell has finally dissipated, lol...

 

Bayless won't be back. He has a player option and thinks he can improve on it.

 

Curry is 100000000000x the closer anyone Memphis has

 

That's not saying anything at all. Grizzlies have no closer. Curry is definitely no closer though. At no point in the SA series could Curry be counted on for a bucket in crunch time. The closest thing the Ws have to a closer is Jarrett Jack.

 

I partially agree. However, the 2003 Zach was far superior to the Z-Bo we traded a couple of years later. As you well know, I long advanced the argument (on O-Live) that making him the #1 option ruined his game. He became Stat-Bo, stopped caring about defense (which wasn't great to begin with, but at least he tried), floated out on the perimeter to conserve energy and the Hoop Family fed his ego.
