Memphis wins tonight then what will the rhetoric be?  Warriors favored by 8 points still.  Too funny.  Memphis moneyline 3-1.  Definitely taking a stab at that.  Gonna be a tough game for sure but if they could sneak one out, game 7 Memphis would have to be the favorite no?

No are you crazy.  This is the playoffs.  One slip up at home and it's tied 3-3 and last game at Memphis.  You don't "intentionally lose" games in the playoffs trying to set up a home game series clincher lol.  Especially as the road team (meaning game 7 you'd have to win on the road". 

What don't you guys get lol.  Memphis is the overall 2 seed.  They are a REAL GOOD team.  This isn't golden state playing the Orlando magic or something lol.
Warriors are next to Memphis and if you are going to compare their experiences, Warriors have the advantage but this is already playoff and yes, anything can happen. There’s no such fixed game here because all teams wants to earn the spot in the finals, if there’s Game 7, it will be the home court for Memphis and that could be a crucial game for Warriors. Too risky if Warriors will let the game 7 to happen, they should play their best.

They need to bring all the best now and not to allow a game 7. From how I see them struggles to play that

last road game, Memphis can match them up outside and inside, the point is all over the floor for the Memphis we have
seen that from the actual final scores.

It's just so happened that in the garbage remaining minutes they manage to cut some points, but in general Memphis
overpower them and the coaching staff declare it as a loss in the early 2nd half of the game.

They cannot afford to bring this series to Memphis, their best chance to win is on their home court, and I trust that they'll be able to do that since they are still perfect on their home court.

Las game, Curry was only 14 points, and Poole just made 3 points, it should not happen again. Curry has to score over 30+ and Poole should score 20+ points. Everyone on the Warriors has to play well, follow the game plan and take care of the ball to limit turnovers.

Golden state warrions always manage to have a strong come back win after there huge deficit lose. There home court advantage is really there strong weapon. I’m just concerned if they manage to go on the next round and still have this kind of inconsistency on there game plan. Mavericks/Suns are both good team and hungry to win. GSW might be in the tight spot in case they will carry over this bad habit of them to the next round although Grizzlies still has a chance to tie the series but without Ja Morant, I really prefer GSW to win on this match.
Let us not talk about the next round yet, Warriors still has a job to do, and that is to finish the Memphis tomorrow, if they can't then they don't deserve to be in the WCF. Suns vs Mavericks is having a great series thus far, but they are already in the last game of the series, so may the best team wins.

Curry has to be an MVP tomorrow, don't give Memphis another chance.

Home court advantage is a "big advantage" in the current playoff season. If you check the results, home ATS are dominating, so I think it's not impossible that the Warriors will have their revenge and would also win by blowout against the young Memphis.

Having a home game can be HomeCourt disadvantage because of the extra pressure on you to win and close out the series. The Warriors had better play smart basketball from the get-go and play with a lot more energy and a lot less rushing around and making turnovers. Another thing I noticed is that, they need to immediately fix these turnovers, because they will not win if this doesn't change. You can't give the other team fire power to add to their already heated team.

Warriors has to start strong, this Memphis line up is good, in game 4, Memphis started strong and it's only in the 4th quarter the Warriors made a strong run and beat the Memphis. So, let's see if it will be different in game 6 because  if Warriors will allow the Memphis to take the game to Memphis, I don't know anymore what would happen.

^^ Well they are the second seed, behind Phoenix Suns and it just shows in the last game that they still have what it takes to win against a very experience team like Golden State. And even without Ja, they have their offense going and the Warriors struggle with their outside shot. But since the Warriors have the championship caliber they will have to forget about this game and looking forward to the next at their home court.

Honestly, I don't see that big loss as a big thing though.

Warriors also beat Grizzlies in game 3 with a very huge margin, but game 4 was a very close one, Grizzlies started short, they are just short a bit in the 4th quarter as the Warriors come back to win the game.
Game 5 was a great game for Grizzlies, they prove that they can still play the game and win. The next game will be a crucial for both team but I think Warriors is still ahead to Grizzlies and have a higher chance here to advance in the finals. Placing my bet again for Warriors, Hoping to see them back in the finals.

If Warriors wins the series, they'll be in the WCF, not finals yet. However, they need to fnish the series in game 6, otherwise, things will be different when Memphis takes the serieson their home court, the crowd will go crazy and Memphis can play physical basketball and beat the Warriors inside.
I don't know about you guys but has it occurred to you that Warriors intended to drop game 5 so they could finish the series in their homecourt? It's really uncharacteristic of them to fall behind that many points in three quarters. I hope I'm wrong but they have done the same thing before against the Cavs if I remember correctly.

I agree Memphis is a really good team and are showing every match how good they are. Goldenstate are really struggling against them but overall i think GoldenState Warriors will advance in the next round o most for sure. But still i wouldnt be surprised if Memphis wins the next match.

I think when they see that the game is slipping away specially in the 2nd-3rd quarter, they should have thought that 'what the heck', we can lose this game and then let them come to Chase center.

So most probably, but if they have the chance, and if this game is close, I think the Warriors though will go and close it out even at Memphis home court.
Maybe that's what Kerr is thinking that time. I usually don't see this move in a playoff series but it still seems logical since they have a game or two to spare.

Would they have done the same thing if game 5 happened in their homecourt? This point is probably irrelevant but I'm just curious.

The fifth game was surely going to be very difficult for Warriors away. Maybe some people thought that Warriors would win easily as they didn't have Morant. But the opposite of this happened and they literally crushed Warriors by like a forty-point gap. It was really unbelievable for me to see Grizzlies doing this even when they didn't have Morant in their starting five. They don't want to give up early but I think Warriors will finish this next time.

Homecourt doesn't mean a sure win but yeah there's a huge impact if the crowd is cheering on you, it can boost your morale so better for Warriors to take the game 6 and have a good rest while waiting in the WCF. Game 5 is quiet bad for Warriors, they throw a lot of points and that is the cost that they have to pay. I hope they can still compose themselves and have a good game 6, I will also go for Warriors and waiting for the good odds before placing my bet.

I am not sure but maybe it is because of home court advantage? but still there's really a huge score gap between the two and Ja Morant was not even there, we really can't deny that the Grizzlies did a good job on that match with their ball movement and offensive on paint.

That was a total dominance by the Memphis. home team these days are winning big time, probably the biggest loss of the Warriors but there's nothing to panic because it's just one game, warriors still has 2 games to finish the series, they can make it in 6.

Right now, that is the trend for NBA, there's no consistency on the team and the home team dominate most of the time. I thought the series is already over, but now it would convince people that Memphis still has a chance to beat the Warriors, they are now +8.5 in game 6, of course the public bets will go to them.

8.5 points 😂, this is the easiest series to bet its not even close.  If Otto Porter is out I might actually take the Grizzlies and the money line here.  Who is gonna guard Adam's inside and then deal with Jackson?  Draymond can only cover 1.  They will donate the paint again.  I know it's in GS, they should win but Grizzlies are now 4 out of 5 ats in this series no reason to stop betting them now.  Is everyone laying on golden state again lol?

My concern is, what if this is just a trap. Bookies would not give the Warriors -8.5 favorite if they think Warriors cannot win and cover that spread, so as we think it might be easy for the Grizzlies, I need to pause a bit and think twice. If I would bet on the Memphis, I'll just go with the moneyline.

No trap.  The bookies give themselves their best chance to clear money.  Knowing GS has a bunch of ban wagon fans and hence betters, they over favor golden state.  MPhil is down 3-2 but they hit the line in 4 of the 5 games.  8.5 points against a te that just won by 40 is laughable.  Especially when that team is the 2 seed.  They didn't get the 2 but backing into the playoffs.  Team is a bunch of dogs, and golden state looked old last night

I hope your opinion is correct, but let's see if it's the right call, I have one day to analyze the game 6 carefully as I don't want to make another mistakes in this series. Honestly, I'm not profitable in this warriors-grizzlies series, I always fall at the wrong line, LOL.

Every game is very unpredictable, but there's only one good team, which is home team wins and covered most of the time.
