Combining the size advantage that coincides with the return of Adams with the energy that should be present in FedExForum, the opportunity for the Grizzlies to survive and advance to a Game 6 is there. And while Adams and Anderson were strong in Game 4, their level of efficiency when matched with volume is likely going to be hard to replicate. Memphis was leading for 47 minutes and 15 seconds of Game 4, at Golden State. The Grizzlies lost by one in Game 1 to the Warriors and beat Golden State in Game 2 - both contests being played at home. The key is finding ways to level up position wise in terms of size, which holds tremendous value potentially if the goal is to continue to try to muck up and muddy the Golden State system. The Golden State Warriors are a veteran team with a splash of youth in Jordan Poole and Jonathan Kuminga. Those two players are key to the Warriors (especially Poole), but make no mistake - Golden State is driven specifically by elder statesmen Steph Curry and Draymond Green, and to a lesser extent Klay Thompson (6-20 in Game 4, outside of Game 3’s avalanche has shot ineffectively). They want this series to end now, since the Dallas/Phoenix series will at least go 6. Kyle Anderson (7-8 from the floor) and Steven Adams (5-9) were also able to have their way in the paint and at the rim. In Game 2 - the lone victory for Memphis in this series so far - Ja Morant went absolutely nuts. But it was fun to see a Memphis Grizzlies player be able to do something comparable to what a future Hall of Famer in Curry is capable of. It is natural for Memphis Grizzlies fans to feel as if the end of the season is a foregone conclusion after the way Game 4 ended. Through four games, one fundamental area in which the Memphis Grizzlies possess the upper hand over the Golden State Warriors is size. The Game 3 whooping at the hands of the Warriors is the outlier in this series - the majority of the games have been close. With Jaren Jackson Jr., Desmond Bane, and the crew back on Beale Street at FedExForum for Game 5, hope to get the series back to Golden State should be strong.

The Memphis Grizzlies will have to win the next three games in order to win their series over the Golden State Warriors and extend their season.

I have nothing against the Warriors, but the hours we've invested into this game feel more worthwhile if they lose by 60. we're guys that really want to win." "That's just been our team the whole year... Probably. No coach is worth 40 points in a single game. Stephen Curry bailed them out of Game 4 because he's Stephen Curry. He can do that from time to time. The Grizzlies were the NBA's best offensive rebounding team by a mile this season. Finally, in Game 5, he took his first loss, but boy, was it an ugly one. The Grizzlies made 44.4 percent of theirs. Getting Steven Adams back into the rotation clearly seems to have made a difference, and the Warriors, without a shooting big man, aren't punishing him defensively in the same way that Minnesota could.

The Grizzlies have held the lead at the end of the first quarter in each of the first five games of the series, and strong 3-point shooting has fueled those first quarter runs. One of the themes of this series has been the Grizzlies putting the Warriors in an early hole. AST: Morant (9.8) REB: Morant (8.0) AST: Green (6.5) Andre Iguodala has yet to play a minute in this series, Gary Payton II suffered a fractured elbow in the opening minutes of Game 2 and Otto Porter Jr. didn’t play in the second half of Game 5 due to right foot soreness, resulting in the Warriors going perhaps deeper into their bench they initially planned. PTS: Morant (27.1) Up 3-2 in their series with the Grizzlies, the Warriors are one win away from advancing to the Western Conference Finals. Friday’s Game 6 will be the Warriors’ second attempt at such after Wednesday’s Game 5 defeat in Memphis, but the Warriors have gone undefeated at home this postseason (5-0) and have won their last seven at Chase Center overall. They’ve trailed by double figures in each game, but have come back to win or threaten to win in four of the five games so far. PTS: 114.0 (2nd) » Full Game Recap PTS: 114.6 (1st)
