Warriors game

Shaun Johnson kicked a field goal in extra time as the Warriors bounced back from their record loss to the Storm.

A Euan Aitken try in the 63rd minute again reduced Canberra's lead to two points before the dramatic finale. Another blunder from Rapana, this time a slip in defence, enabled teenage centre Viliama Vailea to bag his maiden NRL try off a probing chip kick from Warriors debutant Daejan Asi, to again cut Canberra's lead to two points. Warriors winger Adam Pompey crossed on the ensuing play, only for the Warriors to concede a soft try to Hudson Young minutes later.

"It wasn't a great game of footy and you've got to feel for the other mob," he said. "I'm lost for comment in regards to the quality of that football in the second-half. "It has to be psychological, it has to be put down to a lack of belief within the side to get the job done." Speaking to reporters after the one-point defeat, a "really embarrassed" Stuart was lost for words as he lamented the horror second-half capitulation. "That is heartbreak, that is five losses in a row for the Raiders and their season sliding away. "They didn't score a point in that second half, they were quite convincing and dominant in that first half, they had opportunities to go on with the game but couldn't get it done.

Shaun Johnson snatches another Warriors win with field goal. It was a baptism of fire for Daejarn Asi for the Warriors against the Raiders on Saturday, but he ...

Even so, he offered more than just throwing passes one out and getting in the way when the Raiders were on attack. So we're asking you to support us with more than your attention. Like elite athletes at their peak, our sports journalists are highly trained in the art of news. It was like he’d been with the team since preseason. It was Asi’s huge hit on Brad Schneider that lifted spirits early in the second half and he went on to throw the bullet pass to Euan Aitken to put him in a hole for the next try and was integral in the comeback. There were so many moments that stood out.

After three years, they appear to be extremely hungry to get back to the NBA Finals as a team, so look for them to come out and put the pressure on Memphis early in this series. As long as those guys can stay out on the floor, Golden State should have a great chance to win Game 1, and the series. The Western Conference semifinal series between the Memphis Grizzlies and Golden State Warriors is set to tip-off on Sunday afternoon.

About 40 hours after their opponent for the Western Conference Semifinals was determined, the Warriors will tip off their series with the Memphis Grizzlies. The ...

The Grizzlies held off a late Warriors rally in a 116-108 win at Memphis on Jan. 11, and a shorthanded Dubs team was no match for Memphis in a 123-95 Dubs defeat in Memphis on March 28. As a team, Denver shot 50 percent from the floor and 42 percent on 3-pointers on Thursday, their best of the series, and time will tell if that upward trend continues on Sunday. Meanwhile, Ja Morant led the Grizzlies with 26.7 points per game against the Dubs and second-year guard Desmond Bane made half of his 3-point attempts against Golden State. The Grizzlies were especially tough in the fourth quarter, as they overcame double-digit deficits in three of their four wins in their series with Minnesota. Second-year guard Desmond Bane led the team in scoring in the series with 23.5 points per game, while superstar Ja Morant wasn’t far behind with 22.4 points and his team-leading 10.5 assists. The Warriors’ 118 points per game were the most of all teams in the first round of the playoffs, and right behind them was the Grizzlies at 114.7 ppg. The Warriors won the first three games of their first round series with the Nuggets and ultimately closed it out on Wednesday with a 102-98 win in Game 5 at home. While the Warriors’ core is largely the same from that series seven years ago, the Grizzlies don’t have any remaining players from that era on their current roster. Since 2015, the Warriors have won 19 of their 21 postseason series, and during that stretch the team won three NBA Championships (2015, 2017, 2018) while making five straight trips to the NBA Finals (2015 through 2019). Draymond Green did his typical do-it-all duties, making game-winning plays on defense in addition to leading the team in assists in the series. Memphis won the series clincher in Minnesota on Friday night, riding another dominant fourth quarter performance in the Game 6 win. AST: 29.7 (1st) On a minutes restriction to start the series as he worked his way back from a foot sprain suffered in March, Stephen Curry came off the bench in the first four games before re-entering the starting lineup in Game 5.

The Warriors and Grizzlies both have plenty of stars, impressive depth and motivation, which should make for a compelling semifinal series.

But Curry missed the final meeting and Thompson played just 20 total minutes against Memphis. The Warriors did outscore the Grizzlies by 17 points (scoring 56 points on 45 possessions) in those 20 minutes (with Curry also on the floor for all 20). Two of the three were Curry and Thompson, and the Warriors scored more than 130 points per 100 possessions in their 102 minutes on the floor together. They have plenty of stars, plenty of depth and lots of motivation. Through 39 minutes and five games, the Warriors’ lineup in Curry, Poole, Thompson, Green and Wiggins produced strong ratings both on offense (141.2) and defense ( 119.8). The Warriors ranked just 16th offensively (112.1 points scored per 100 possessions) in the regular season. While Curry nursed a minutes restriction from his injury, Poole started in his place and finished with the second-most points in franchise history in their first three playoff appearances (Wilt Chamberlain had 116, and Poole had 86). He also became part of a lethal small-ball lineup that both sparked interest in the group’s nickname and intrigue on the team’s shooting and quickness. But they also have returned to the playoffs because they have struck a good balance between blending their championship-tested players with an otherwise young roster. The Grizzlies host the Warriors in Game 1 on Sunday ( 3:30 ET on ABC) as a viable championship contender. Expect Morant to do the same. Remember when Curry wanted to defend Morant during their first matchup last season after the two stars took veiled and playful shots at each other on social media? As for the Warriors, they have the familiar characters that helped them win three NBA titles in five Finals appearances. A year later, the landscape has changed already between both teams as they prepare for a semifinals matchup.

Klay Thompson (22.6 points per game in the playoffs) and Jordan Poole (21.0) also have scored early and often for Golden State. Andrew Wiggins is averaging 14.0 ...

"You definitely have got to celebrate moments like this," Jenkins said after the first-round win. Memphis held on for a 4-2 series win over the scrappy Minnesota Timberwolves in the opening round. "He's a lot stronger," said Draymond Green, who is in his 10th season with Golden State. "When he's driving to the hole, what teams used to do is bump him off his path. But once he puts his head down and drives it, and he's committed to getting to the hole, he's strong enough to take those bumps and not get pushed off his path." He averaged 21.5 points, 10.5 assists and 8.7 rebounds in the six games against Minnesota. Golden State is coming off a 4-1 series win over the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs. "It's a good feeling, but (we're) still not satisfied," he said. "You've got to cherish this. Stephen Curry is averaging 28.0 points in five games during the postseason. Winning a series, you don't want to take for granted. If you're not pressed up and overreacting to the shot, then he shoots, and good luck. The Memphis Grizzlies are new to the scene, coming off their first playoff series win in seven years.

'I am lost for comment': Ricky slams 'embarrassing' Raiders after gifting Warriors victory.

“It’s no secret we have to stick together and go again. We’ve got to find a way to become winners again. “Publicly I am lost for comment in regard of the quality of that performance in the second half and for any loyal fan and any real fan we have got left it, I feel really embarrassed and sorry for them,” Stuart said.

Both led by their dynamic point guards, the Memphis Grizzlies will look to Ja Morant, while the Golden State Warriors will rely heavily on Steph Curry. The good ...

Having made quick work of the Denver Nuggets, Steph and the Warriors will look to advance to the Western Conference Finals, a place they have not been since 2019. The good news to begin this series, is that despite their injury troubles to end the regular season, both Ja Morant and Steph Curry are good to go for Game 1 of the Western Conference Semi-Finals. Each team has released their injury report, and for Memphis, it will be Steven Adams as the only guaranteed absence, with Ziaire Williams being listed as questionable. With the Memphis Grizzlies eliminating the Minnesota Timberwolves in six games, there will be a rematch of last year's play-in game between Memphis and Golden State. Both teams look drastically different than they did in last year's play-in tournament, when Memphis edged out Golden State in overtime; however, the star play at the top for both teams remains the same.

They averaged 53.0 points in the paint in their 4-2 series victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round. During the regular season they averaged a league leading 57.6 points in the paint. Will the Dubs steal Game 1 on the road with their future Hall-of-Famers ready to go? In my conversations with Dub Nation, it’s been clear they believe Memphis is the biggest roadblock to the Warriors getting out of the West. But against the Warriors during the regular season that number dipped down to 50.5...hmmm. A trip to Memphis to face the Western Conference’s #2 seeded GRIZZLIES!
