As cool as this Grizz upset would be, it's not as rad as the 07 Warriors. The Oakland crowd made that special. Maybe not as cool as the 94 Nuggets, either. Chris Jackson, Robert Pack, Motumbo, that was a hell of a team and they pushed Utah to 7 next round, too.[/QUOTE]


Wow Gramps.

DAT WESTERN CONFERENCE PARITY.

Unlike the East where the Bulls can play like total shit and still almost sweep the 8th seed.
Imagine the Bulls playing Memphis. LOL!

Spurs/Grizz
Lakers/Hornets
Mavs/Blazers

All prove the west coast is the best coast.

The west has dominated for years. I can't stand watching eastern games.

I lived in DENVER at the time, and remember it clearly.

Bow before your seniors.

Does Mayo have to be traded and be a starter somewhere next season, or could he stick around as the 6th man? I think it suits him well.

I forgot all about Chris Jackson. He'll always be Mahmoud Abdul Rauf to me.

For the first time in the Duncan era, I'm hoping Pop leaves pretty soon. When they resigned Bonner I kept thinking wtf, that asshole never fucking produces in the playoffs. And then somehow he kept getting 20+ minutes a game even though we brought over the best big from Europe. SMH
Indeed. Pop has fucked up big time. Gotta admit that Memphis is the better team right now and all our championship poise has disappeared. The team looks old and unathletic, just like last year against the Suns.

Yep. 94 Nuggets weremy favorite underdog team. I remember watching the conclusion of game 5 at a baseball card store.

I remember that too, the big Denver writer (the guy on around the horn) said the series was over and no way the Jazz would win.

Yeah, I can see how a conference where the top seeds are fraudulent shitty teams is much better.


it's cause out West the bottom seeds aren't fucking garbage like in the East. Memphis would probably be a 5 seed out there.

Mutumbo on the floor hugging the ball was an iconic moment. That was just an amazing series and finish.

It was still an awesome season though. If Pop is going to stick around, I hope he learned his lesson. Bonner should only be used to soak up minutes in the regular season.

I loved that team. Brings back a lot of memories.

In the west, the top seeds are fucking garbage. Same result.

Yes, that's true. It's a good mix of the Spurs overachieving and Memphis playing in a tough West. This feels more like a 4/5 game.

The west is such a close call that they all feel like 4/5 games.
