No fire at all

whole team? nah .... i think conley jr just woke up.

Well, Conley did go nuts right after I posted that

Not crazy about Vince guarding Kawhi. Let's see how these next few minutes go.

Pete and Brevin are so good.

Damn Mills. Troy has to stay connected.

The bench is killing us! No points, except one?

Got the TOs down. But lost our defensive intensity.

Ugly

On to game 6

Griz have some issues to address through draft, trade of free agency. Got to get faster. They made a great run to get back in the game but ran out of gas in the 4th. Got to win the next one.

If the Grizz continue to get below replacement-level production from Parsons, all the other moves they make might not amount to much. When it was obvious Parsons wasn't healthy, they should have shut him down. Instead, his "good" knee over-compensated for the recovering knee, and he injured it too. Good news is the surgery on the good knee was reported to be minor. If Parsons can play, we have him, Ennis and Rade at the 3 next year.

I think we get younger by letting some combination of Tony, Vince and ZBo leave this summer. I think ZBo is back at a lower salary. I think ZBo will find there is not much of a market for aging, traditional post-bound 4s who are poor defenders. Milwaukee hasn't been able to find a taker for Greg Monroe for 2 years. And ZBo doesn't want to leave anyway. So my guess is ZBo is back at $5M, and TA and Vince are gone.

An average starting shooting guard would be great. SG is kind of a weak position in the NBA now, so easier said than done.

Even with all the misses if we had just gone the easy, right-there-in-front-of-you pick with Hood.

Hood was the most glaring. Remember watching that draft with my son, and Hood kept falling and falling.

Toronto had the 20th pick, announcers said they thought Hood should be the pick, and Toronto takes Bruno Cabolco. That was when Fran Fraschilla made the famous "in 2 years, he'll still be 2 years away" statement.

Then Ok City had #21, fingers crossed, and they reach for Mitch McGary.

My son and I were cheering, just waiting for the Grizz at #22 to take Hood. Glaring need at SF, it was so obvious. And the announcer said Jordan Adams. Sigh.

Time for a two game win streak.

I think the Spurs played their best game in game 5. Doesn't mean we win game 6, but I don't think the Spurs make that many 3's in another game this series. We need to play a good game in game 6, and then we have a puncher's chance in game 7.
