Geoff Calkins

Ed Davis, he lives (and contributes, which might suggest he should be out there more than the other guy).

Eli Savoie

Memphis goes Al Kapone, San Antonio goes mariachi band at timeout

Chris Vernon

Grizzlies have to make them pay for havin diaw on gasol and bonner on zbo

Eli Savoie

Diaw on Marc and Bonner on Zach. Must get the ball to them!

Chris Vernon

Held out hope that Arthur could at least contribute vs Spurs. He has had 2 good mins all postseason.

Eli Savoie

That quarter was very close to a grizzaster. Only the first quarter though so we'll just issue a warning for now

Geoff Calkins

Griz: Shane Battier ain't walking through that door. Neither is the 2011 Darrell Arthur, apparently.

Ronald Tillery

End of 1Q: Griz coach Lionel Hollins is about to blow a gasket over the officiating. Almost got T'd up at least 3 times in opening period

Eli Savoie

That was as bad a quarter as we've seen in quite some time from the Grizzlies. Not sure what the heck that was

Geoff Calkins

That's the quarter, 31-14. #Yikes

Chris Vernon

That is insane. Salt in the wound. Terrible quarter.

Eli Savoie

That is an awful bail out call

Geoff Calkins

Perhaps the dumbest quarter of basketball submitted by this team since the days of Bonzie Wells.

Geoff Calkins

So darn unfair that, unlike Thunder, Spurs get to use all five guys.

Eli Savoie

Spurs out rebounding the Grizzlies 9-3. That is not good

Geoff Calkins

The orchestra at the start makes a lot more sense now that the Griz appear to have hit an iceberg.

Eli Savoie

There's a lady about 30 feet to my right with a cowbell. She will not stop pounding on that thing. I will be hearing that thing in my sleep

Geoff Calkins

TA just wanders over asks Ron Tillery "who set that screen" on Green's 3.

Eli Savoie

In an unrelated not, the wifi in this place is a disaster

Geoff Calkins

In pregame, Lionel said there's no way to tell players what it's like to play at this level, have to let them go find out for themselves.

Eli Savoie

My goodness. Spurs can't miss 6-7 field goals to start

Chris Vernon

West Finals Game 1. Grizzlies vs Spurs. LEGGGGOOOOOOO! (Late)

Eli Savoie

Set up in the AT&T center and ready to go for game 1. Here we go!

Geoff Calkins

Pete Pranica

Don't forget, postgame coverage on @sportsouth at 5:30 tonight. #FSGrizz

Geoff Calkins

A national media guy told me the Griz vs. Spurs would be "good vs. evil." He meant, in terms of media, access, etc. #MemphisIsGood

Geoff Calkins

Hollins said he was at one of his regular haunts with his son the other day and got an ovation. Embarrassed, he said.

Geoff Calkins

Hollins also mentioned the Rendezvous for dry ribs and Local.

Geoff Calkins

Hollins was fairly loose, giving out his Memphis restaurant recommendations, including Interstate, Bari and Trolley Stop.

Geoff Calkins

Just back from two pressers. Coaches as unyielding as defenses, but Pop handily wins this one in the battle for fewest words.

Pete Pranica

Part of the scene on San Antonio @SportSouth #BelieveMemphis http://t.co/O1iofiCUJV

Tony Allen

Pete Pranica

Day off to a good start with @Arsenal win to finish top 4. #gogunners

Eli Savoie

In San Antonio getting set for game 1 of WCF and there is a Whattaburger 2 blocks from hotel. Is this heaven?

Chris Vernon

literally the first line of the CA game preview says this is Grizz/Spurs 2nd postseason meeting. guess the Hubie year never happened.

Chris Vernon

Pete Pranica

Thanks to all the fans who participated in tonight's #GrizzChat. Don't forget our live postgame coverage on @SportSouth tomorrow at 5:30.

Pete Pranica

. @peftoalex Play within himself and don't rush. When he double clutches on a shot, he misses. Just play, don't think.

Pete Pranica

By the way, you're seeing a true team (Pacers) take apart an undisciplined defensive team with one hot shooter (Knicks).

Pete Pranica

Really eye-opening read on NBA travel pre-charter and five-star hotel: grantland.com/story/_/id/927…

Chris Vernon

We are having a watch party for Grizz-Spurs Game 1 tomorrow. 2:30 at TJ Muligans at 64/ Houston Levee. Come watch w/ me + @Jon_Roser

Ronald Tillery

Practice flow on eve of WCF: Tayshaun Prince on his hip injury, “I’m not worried about that, man. I’ll contribute one way or another.”

Ronald Tillery

Practice flow on eve of WCF: Tony Allen on the hoopla, “If we can just block the media out and focus on the Spurs that’ll be great for us.”

Ronald Tillery

Practice flow on eve of WCF: Hollins on being perceived as an underdog, "It doesn't matter. We’re appreciated by our fans and by ourselves."

Chris Vernon

Is BBQFest with me and @GaryParrishCBS getting ridiculous? Answer is.... http://t.co/C6lSkSVt5M

Pete Pranica

A reminder that I'll be doing a live Twitter Chat tomorrow night at 8 pm CT from the team hotel in San Antonio. Tag questions #GrizzChat

Pete Pranica

Re-watching the post game sound bites from Game 5 in OKC and am struck by how quiet and low-key it was. @memgrizz are poised and focused.
