The Warriors’ first half of Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Memphis Grizzlies was … not pretty.
With Golden State trying to close out a series against a Memphis team playing without Ja Morant, the Grizzlies clearly came out to force a Game 6. The Warriors, on the other hand, turned the ball over, missed shots, and played little-to-no defense.
The result was a Grizzlies’ halftime lead of 77-50 at FedExForum.
NBA Twitter and Dub Nation reacted accordingly to the putrid showing.
Barring a miracle comeback, Game 6 will occur Friday at Chase Center.
