can't believe it's game 4 tomorrow and it looks like the warriors are ahead and round 5 maybe a few more days to predict. maybe enough time to train. s curry and k tompson have superior points and I think they have more weight than the other athletes . hot dish and the NBA this time may produce some of the trick you crave. not that you will always be in a safe position in spurring a club. and some possibility there could be a development shift or a change in strategy. I'm optimistic this is good

Don't forget about Jordan Poole too, he is very consistent in the series and he was the next top scorer after Curry in game 3. Tomorrow, we will again witnessed the offensive firepower of the Warriors, so let's expect another blowout win now that Morant is out.
Warriors really made a huge winning statement agains Grizzlies, that can bring into the next game and make Warriors a win again to proceed in the next round. That’s a total team effort for me I guess since all of them really did their best to contribute, there’s a higher chance that Warriors will go to the finals, i’ll start on supporting them again.

Not me.  Still laying on the Grizzlies.  They get brooks back which is good for Memphis.  Ja being hurt changes things but no reason they can't keep the game within 10 points (the spread) or even win the game.  Still think they are getting too much disrespect with betters.  Because a lot of people lean way too heavy on gden state based on the past and all the bandwagon fans they got manipulates it.  Will continue to take the value it provides.  Memphis loses a close one tonight 115-110.  Enjoy the games

but even if Morant is playing, Warriors are still capable of beating them.
I agree there's no way for the Grizzlies to edge out the Warriors unless they get one here on the road but that's very unlikely with their situation.

I like the Warriors tomorrow even at -10, there's no way they will lose against Memphis without Morant, not now that they have already gained the momentum in the series. Poole is very confident, he was a bit off in game 2 but he proved he can be like Steph in game 3, so that will continue in game 4.

With that dominant win last game, Warriors for sure will continue to attack the Memphis, and without Ja Morant who usually carry the team, a "W" is not clear for them.

Line has also moved, from -9 now it's -10, lots of money going for the Warriors as Morant is the main scorer of the Grizzlies, without him, no chance for them to beat the Warriors.
The Grizzlies were decent back then during the regular season even without Morant but unfortunately, they're going against the Warriors so it's only downhill for them.

Then for the Warriors, it'll be much easier for them to close out this series within 5 and they'll definitely cover that spread unless there'd be more injuries.

but even if Morant is playing, Warriors are still capable of beating them.

He is too arrogant, he is not even Lebron, now that he is out, expect another easy win by the Warriors.

LOL, can't blame the guy, that's his attitude, so just accept it.

You can hate Morant's attitude but not his talent, he has carried his team in this series but unfortunately he was injured and will not be able to play an important game which they need to even the series. If Warriors takes game tomorrow, it will likely end 4-1.



Morant might just rest 1 game and will play game 5, but even if Morant is playing, Warriors are still capable of beating them.

He played but during the garbage time only.
I think Memphis is not planning to use him in the series, but they might make a new strategy in game 4.

Warriors dominate Memphis in game 3, and now the discussion is over that Memphis has a chance of beating the Warriors.
I thought he is injured and then I saw him play. I think this is a wrong decision for Memphis Grizzlies Coach Jenkins to bench him. He ain't a slow player and can follow the fast-paced games as far as I remember and he is also not bad at making plays inside the paint. Perhaps, they should now think about using him to protect the rim and for offensive rebounds.
He wasn't injured, maybe he undergone some safety protocol but in game 3 he was already cleared to play. However, their coach stick with the play and line up that beat the Warriors in game 2 without know that the Warriors have already adjusted and broke their defense.

A team who scored 142 points, that's insane, it's very clear that Memhpis does not play the right defense that game.

Morant is now a trend on social media for the tweet "broke the code" and then deleted it in just minutes. The only problem is many people saw it before he could even erase it, including the media who interviewed Jordan Poole.

^^ I'm not surprised by the line move though, was about to check and put a bet on the Warriors when I see that it move to -10.5. And now that it is confirmed that Morant will not play, it will be very hard for the Grizzlies to win because the Warriors is very fluid with a lot of them contributing, even Otto Porter has a good game.

I think it was not the intention of Jordan Poole to really injured Morant, it just so happened that he chase the ball and accidentally hold on Morant's knee.

Morant seems not in 100% next game. That was a big disadvantage for Memphis even though they are a good team without Morant during the season (20-2 if I'm not mistaken). The situation is different in playoffs.

He will likely be out tomorrow.

Ja Morant likely out for Game 4 with knee injury; League will take no action with Poole

Quote
Ja Morant, who left Game 3 with a sore knee in the fourth quarter after an incident with the Warriors Jordan Poole, is unlikely to play in Game 4 on Monday with his team down 1-2 in the series, according to Grizzlies’ coach Tayler Jenkins.

Jenkins also said Poole grabbing the knee caused the injury, but the NBA league office has said there will be no punishment — no fine or suspension — for Poole.

Line has also moved, from -9 now it's -10, lots of money going for the Warriors as Morant is the main scorer of the Grizzlies, without him, no chance for them to beat the Warriors.

Warriors' defense is its offense. That 63 field goal percentage was high enough to blow out the opponent just like what we have seen earlier. Warriors are playing with numbers, I mean they just letting take the 3's rather than driving to the basket as they know that is not Morant's strength so I think game 4 will be just the same.

This is correct. Since the Warriors think that they can't be a 100% defensive team, why focus on it? Instead, they enhanced their offense which is their specialty. I think I already pointed this out in response to a user before during the Season that the Warriors need to play defense were in fact for me, they are really playing defense but why to focus on those if most of their rosters are deadly in the perimeter and 3-point area. That talent is hard to find in any team where the likes of Curry, and Thompson can nail 3s even contested and well-defended.

There's a clip going around of Stephen Curry and Jordan Poole running an off the ball screen for each other, but they lock arms and swing around in opposite directions to confuse the defense trying to switch the screen.  I've never really seen anything like this before, and now it makes me wonder why not.  If this is a play that the Warriors are going to start using to get Steph open for 3s, the league might have a new problem on their hands.

Here's a link to a clip on Twitter of the play I'm talking about.  It's being referred to apparently as the sling shot and defenses should be terrified.

The line is now up to Memphis +7.5.  So much money coming in on golden state.  Looks like right now iggy is out so who is covering ja tonight?  I expect him to get doubled all night.  Memphis should dominate the paint tonight with all the open lanes ja will create.  Taking the money line here such good odds.  When are bettors gonna start respecting memphis?
I'm rooting for the Warriors this season but when it comes for betting I won't deny that there's a chance that the Memphis Grizzlies could really cover that much spread especially that Ja Morant is now free or the Warriors have no choice but to be guarded with two players as there is no one in there line-up have any specialties in defense like GP2 had and also Adams will bounce back too.

Yeah Adam's is the x factor here.  Memphis had to play smallball and got outrebounded in the last 2 games.  This is where Adam's can completely change the game for Memphis.  I'm banging the money line on this one.  Either way it's gon a be a fun game.  I don't expect a blowout on either side the entire series. 
I also expected that Steven Adams will play a huge role on todays game but I quite confused when I saw Melton as the center instead of Adams. But seems that the Grizzlies made sure to get him again in the rotation and not to force him to play big as we only saw him in the 4th quarter but he I believe he could've help the team more if he were exposed earlier. Anyways, a 30 score difference was made by the Warriors.

Everyone on the Warriors roster are making the right contribution they need to win game 3.

Poole 27 points
Curry 30 points
Thompson 21 points
Wiggins 17 points
Kuminga 18 points
Porter Jr. 13 points.

overall - WARRIORS 63% shooting percentage.

Look at that numbers, the offense are coming from everyone, so sure Memphis has no answer from that.
I have a feeling that game 4 will be the same as what happen in game 3, if Morant will not play, it's going to be easy money for the Warriors.

Morant was limping on his way out of the stadium, not a good sign for the Grizzlies and even if he will play game4, for sure he is not going to be 100 percent healthy so this might be over for them.

It's because the Warriors are playing small ball, that's why Adams is used sparingly in this series. Not sure what Memphis strategy as far is Adams is concern, again, he is not the focal point of their offense.

And with Morant's injury, Memphis chances are very slim against a championship like the Warriors. Too many offensive options and they have skilled defenders as well. Can play small and can have a legit center in Looney.

Morant was really good again in thier last game in the series but it was not enough for a win this time. Because Warriors showed an incredible performance in this game and won by an unbelievable score (142-112). This must be like a statement from Warriors that states how strong they are when they want to be. Grizzlies would need to perform much bigger from now on as a team I mean. Otherwise this series might end earlier than most people expected. But we will see. If it becomes 3-1, then Grizzlies wouldn't be able to make a comeback anymore I think.

I think this series already ends on there next game. This 30 points lead is proof that they can easily wipe up Grizzlies that keeps giving them a close fight since game 1 if all of them will contribute properly. Wiggins and Klay is the most improve on this match and show strong Warriors if this two inconsistent players will perform well on there match. Warriors is very strong if they can maintain this kind of level on there playoffs run.
