That is what a 4th quarter meltdown looks like.
Seriously…the Golden State Warriors broke the remaining pieces of my already broken heart. With less than 2 minutes left, I was sitting there at Oracle Arena with my hands on my head in utter disbelief. I’m a Warrior fan to the death, but that was just a very sorry ending. Where were the defensive rebounds? Why weren’t they taking better care of the ball? Monta and Curry accounted for half of the total team’s turnovers. HALF! The Memphis Grizzles outscored the Warriors 39-22 in the 4th quarter. We were up 68-52 to start the 4th!
I realize I am stating the obvious but I still can’t get over it. I am happy with David Lee’s efforts on the glass though, considering how Marc Gasol was having his way with the Warriors.
On another note—I was quite excited to see my 2 favorite European men on the court at the same time (or at least for the 16 minutes that Andris played). Gasol continues to be the silver lining in my fantasy leagues. Maybe if I wear my Biedrins jersey, he’ll play better. Yeah, I own a Biedrins jersey. I bandwagoned after the playoff run, what can I say.
