Do or die today

I'm determined now while I loathe watching movies on Sunday because it forces me to try and write a review during the week when my time is usually limited. But I'll suck it up, hell I might write the review tonight (breaking my usual reviewing tradition) just to get it out since I will have more time on a Sunday night than I will on Monday or Tuesday due to work.

Now if your wondering why I'm not at the movies now it's because I am watching game 7 between the Grizzlies and the Thunder. Now technically I really don't have a dog in the hunt anymore, I'm a die hard 76ers fan have been for years but Memphis is a basketball town. Granted it's usually COLLEGE basketball with the Memphis Tigers, but this run for the Grizzlies has been insane. Not saying that I am enjoying the game, I am a basketball fan and nothing I hate more that the "favorite son" treatement.

I blame it on the Grizzlies

I was trying to complete the Thor review but I turned on the Grizzlies game and as they are now in their second overtime its being put on hold til the games is over. Now the grizzlies have proven they can win one in OKC, can the Thunder win one in Memphis.

Make it now a 3rd overtime, wow and to think a rookie is running the point right now. Mayo is out, Conley is out both fouled out in the 1st overtime. It seems that foul shots are hard to come by for the Grizz lots of contact and ticky tack whistles for the Thunder but as its now 3 overtimes it seems the Thunder can't find a knockout punch. I guess it comes down to star power OKC are the new darlings of the league.

4 calls/no calls are the difference a Harden travel that was called as a foul, Durant falling out of bounds and it was called a foul, a lot of contact on the final Grizzlies possession of the 2nd overtime. As for what is now the final overtime quite a few push offs as well.

Series tied 2 games a piece. Can the grizzlies get hungry and win another one in OKC and win it in Memphis in game 6.
