What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Peter Vecsey @PeterVecsey1
Warriors are 0- 11 from three point range. Kings might want to reconsider their coaching choice… – 10:53 PM
Peter Edmiston @peteredmiston
Grizzlies have done a spectacular job of mucking up the game. Much more intense defense, better organized switching, making it hard for the Warriors. If they could throw the ball in the ocean, they’d be up 20. But they can’t and are only up 6. Still, pretty good start. – 10:53 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Warriors 0-11 from 3 and have 10 turnovers and Grizzlies lead by 6. The first two won’t fully sustain. Grizzlies have to start generating more offense. – 10:52 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Remember Warriors fans: Mike Brown ain’t the one out there throwing the ball into the stands. – 10:51 PM
Carl Steward @stewardsfolly
Warriors need to get Kuminga in this game. So many chances he could have had so far. – 10:51 PM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Memphis switching everything on-ball with Steph out, but sticking with their matchup off-ball. Has worked well to confuse the Warriors. – 10:50 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Grizzlies up 28-22 and we in the mud. Dillon Brooks needs to wander through a kids dance routine. – 10:50 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
The Warriors have 10 turnovers and are 0-for-11 from 3-point range, yet they’re only down six points. – 10:50 PM
Mark Giannotto @mgiannotto
This feels like a Grit and Grind game. I think that’s a good thing considering the circumstances. Get the Warriors in the mud. – 10:49 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
This is some really ugly shooting. Warriors 0-for-11 from 3. Grizzlies 2-for-14. 10 turnovers already for Golden State. – 10:49 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
It seems the Warriors still haven’t figured out Memphis is overplaying everything – 10:49 PM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
As a veteran Warriors watcher, I expected them to mess around with Ja out, but this is well beyond even my expectations. – 10:49 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Did you know JJJ and Poole played in high school together? – 10:48 PM
Vivek Jacob @vivekmjacob
nil-nil second quarter, poole with a crucial goal – 10:47 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Little more than two minutes into the second quarter, and the Warriors have nine turnovers. – 10:47 PM
Ric Bucher @RicBucher
Andre Iguodala promised himself he’d take time to enjoy his second ride with the Warriors. He just never expected it to be this bumpy… foxsports.com/stories/nba/an…10:47 PM
Marc J. Spears @MarcJSpears
Great slow pace and defense for the Grizzlies sans Ja Morant to hold the Warriors to 20 points in the first quarter. Golden State was 0-for-10 from 3-point range in the first quarter and shot 39.1 percent from the field. – 10:44 PM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Grizz have concentrated more on taking away the rim. I’m guessing at some point the Warriors will hit a 3, but there’s at least variance on those vs the layups they gave up last game. – 10:43 PM
Ryan McDonough @McDNBA
The Grizzlies did win 80% of their games without Ja – and Ja missed 25 games… – 10:43 PM
Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
After 1: Warriors trail Grizzlies 24-20
-6 turnovers, 5 MEM pts (MEM: 1 turnover, 0 GSW pts)
-Curry 6 (0/4 from 3, now 5/23 over last 2plus games
-17-10 rebounding edge
-39pct FG, 0/10 from 3 – 10:43 PM
Meghan Triplett @Meghan_Triplett
After the 1st qtr, Grizzlies up 24-20.
Defense (3 blocks, 2 steals and 5pts off 6 Golden State turnovers), 16 Pts in the paint, and 9 assists on 11 made FGs! – 10:42 PM
Memphis Grizzlies @memgrizz
a wrap for the first quarter.
we lead 24-20.
📺 @NBAonTNT | 📻 @929espn pic.twitter.com/oQZGZ87RHF10:42 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Grizzlies have slowed the game down, played good defense and gotten just enough halfcourt offense to lead, 24-20. – 10:42 PM
Kerith Burke @KerithBurke
The Warriors shot chart from the first quarter. 0-10 from three, Steph and Klay both 0-4. pic.twitter.com/zqaXeGBxka10:41 PM
Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
End of 1:
Grizzlies lead 24-20
That’s the good. They also held the Warriors to 39.1% shooting. I don’t know how sustainable that is, considering Golden State missed some good looks. Warriors 0-10 on 3-pointers.
Grizzlies had nine first quarter assists. That ball is moving. – 10:41 PM
Mark Medina @MarkG_Medina
Grizzlies have a 24-20 first-quarter lead over the Warriors. Amazing that it is even that close with the Warriors missing all 10 of their 3’s. Warriors are beating the Grizzlies on the boards (17-10) – 10:40 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Warriors missed all 10 of their first quarter 3s and turned it over seven times. Steph Curry 0 of 4 from deep, Klay Thompson 0 of 4. Curry is 10 of 35 from 3 in this series. – 10:40 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
END OF Q1: Golden State trails Memphis, 24-20. The Warriors are 0-for-10 from 3, with Klay Thompson and Steph Curry accounting for eight of those misses. – 10:40 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Grizzlies lead 24-20 after one quarter. Warriors shot 0-for-10 from 3. – 10:40 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Grizzlies are 2-for-11 from three and STILL outshooting the Warriors from deep lol – 10:40 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Warriors went 0-10 from 3 in the first quarter. – 10:40 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Warriors have started 0-10 from 3-point range with 6 turnovers yet they only trail by 4. – 10:39 PM
Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwill
Steph 0-4 from 3, Klay 0-4. Not a strong sign. Both have gotten good looks, but a couple have been forced – 10:38 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Warriors 0-for-7 from 3 and 8-for-11 inside the arc – 10:36 PM
Golden State Warriors @warriors
pick & roll perfection
📺 @NBAonTNT pic.twitter.com/vFfwUZFHh610:34 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Really clean start from the Morant-less Grizzlies, who have 7 assists and just one turnover. Meanwhile, the Warriors have as many assists (5) as turnovers (5). – 10:33 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Kicks update: Stephen Curry is wearing special shoes tonight to honor the late Craig Sager. The shoes will be signed by Curry and auctioned off on Wednesday at https://t.co/vsBufPkLJL. pic.twitter.com/wxDyww5NpL10:31 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
If I’m the Grizzlies I’m giving Poole the Luka treatment. – 10:31 PM
Rob Perez @WorldWideWob
every Kyle Anderson jumper is a challenge to see if he can shoot slower than the last time. – 10:30 PM
Mark Giannotto @mgiannotto
Steven Adams looked perfectly capable of hanging in this game defensively during those opening 8 mins. Good early sign for the Grizzlies. – 10:29 PM
Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
Steven Adams is getting the ball around the top of the key looking to make plays, but the Warriors are doing a good job of denying the basketball. Stephen Curry noticeably did a good job on Desmond Bane. Adams and Bane connected on a lot of those plays throughout the season. – 10:29 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Grizzlies now 1-for-7 from 3. Golden State is 0-for-6. – 10:29 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Got to wonder if the Warriors’ slow start will be enough for Steve Kerr (Mike Brown?) to start Otto Porter Jr. or Jordan Poole in Game 5. Both have been plus-minus wizards in this series. – 10:29 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Brooks is getting Poole on defense and Ziaire Williams has Curry. Interesting choice. – 10:28 PM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Look for the Grizz to go at Poole and Curry with Kyle Anderson like we just saw. – 10:28 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Jaren Jackson Jr. is back. This was his normal sub pattern anyway. Bathroom break? – 10:26 PM
Chris Herring @Herring_NBA
Not necessarily expecting much of Memphis tonight. But they were great at turning teams over when Ja was out this year. Defense clamps down a lot harder. si.com/.amp/nba/2022/…10:25 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Warriors’ two best plus/minus players in this series have been Otto Porter (+49) and Jordan Poole (+45). Nobody else better than +13 entering the night. Neither Porter/Poole are starting. Warriors down 13-8 first 5.5 minutes tonight. Poole about to enter. – 10:24 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Stoppage, and Jaren Jackson Jr. leaves the floor and heads into the tunnel. Not sure what that’s about. – 10:23 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
That’s 8 points and four turnovers in the first five and a half minutes for the Warriors. Another slow start – 10:23 PM
Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
Adams just nutmeg Draymond? – 10:23 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Jordan Poole is checking in for the first time tonight after the timeout. – 10:23 PM

Adam Lauridsen @GSWFastBreak
Warriors with shootaround intensity. – 10:21 PM

Warriors are giving up a lot of open 3s early. Memphis just isn’t taking advantage. Both teams are a combined 0-8 from distance. – 10:20 PM

James Boyd @RomeovilleKid
Lol Dillon Brooks with the air-ball to start. 💀 – 10:18 PM

Grizzlies up 4-2 early. – 10:17 PM

Thunderous boos drown out Dillon Brooks’ name when announced in the Grizzlies’ starting lineup. Steven Adams will start for the Grizz as well for the first time in this series. – 10:11 PM

Last March, the Warriors faced something of an existential crisis. They were on the verge of becoming … normal.
Now, their revolutionary style, which once transformed the sport as we know it, is again ahead of the NBA curve.
The reason? Jordan Poole

Jaren Jackson Jr. on Adreian Payne: “Never want to see something like that happen. Prayers to his family. Definitely shook us all up. Super tough. I’ve already talked to a lot of alumni. Tough man. Saw Dray this morning. It’s tough on all of us… Life man, it’s precious.” – 5:13 PM

The latest update on Ja Morant, as well as everything Dillon Brooks had to say about the foul and suspension. Right here: dailymemphian.com/section/sports…4:37 PM
Peter Edmiston @peteredmiston
Nothing I have heard or seen today gives me any expectation that Ja Morant will play tonight – or probably again in the series. The Grizzlies probably want to leave that door open just to make the Warriors have to prepare for the possibility. But I’d guess it’s quite unlikely. – 4:37 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Otto Porter Jr. officially upgraded to available tonight for the Warriors in Game 4. Had been probable with a right hand contusion. Ja Morant remains doubtful. – 4:34 PM

In 2016, Evan, the founder of @Adapt, was diagnosed with Leukemia.
Six years later, the “Gold Blooded” mantra that he and Adapt created has become a rallying cry for his hometown team.

Dillon Brooks spoke Monday morning for the first time since being suspended for his flagrant two foul on Gary Payton II.
Says he hasn’t spoke with GPII or anyone with the Warriors. Wishes he could take the play back. And that he likes getting booed. pic.twitter.com/CLZRpvHwLE4:02 PM
