With two widely-admired former Celtics going at in in the Thunder vs. Grizzlies series, I'm sure interest will be high.

There are a lot of individual threads right now about matchups, who you're rooting for, etc., but use this one for discussing the action as it happens.

It should be a great series, but I'm saying Thunder in 6.

MEM not backing down...I love General Greveis off the bench for the Griz, too.

And he's just a rook?

The Grizzlies are looking good so far, with a lot of that due to their hot shooting (58.3% so far).

Would be amazing if the Griz were somehow able to get to the finals. Would love to see Gasol v Gasol in the WCF.
Andy Bernard doesnt lose constests. He wins them, or he quits them because they're unfair.

Mayo and Arthur will be the difference in this series. I also think we'll see Tony on Westbrook late.

Gasol + Randolph are 7-for-7 right now, with 17 points and 9 rebounds.  Ouch.

Coach Lionel Hollins deserves to be at least in the Coach of The Year running. He's done a great job there.

Keep ramming it low Memphis.  That's what pushes you from a fringe playoff team to an upsetting beast (that + TA and Powe).
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

Wow, Memphis is killing them.  Swarming defense + transition.  Tommy must love watching this team.
