He promised to rectify the next game. Serge Ibaka was present yesterday with 17 points (46% shooting 1/1 to 3pts and 4/4 in the shot). But it was not enough for the franchise of the Ispano-Congolese powerful winger. The Thunder bowed after extension 103-97, against Memphis.

Blame the trio Marc Gasol (23pts, 11rbds, 6 cons [personal record in the playoffs]), Zach Randolph (23pts, 12rbds) and Mike Conley, the Grizzlies best scorer with 24 units, who negated the 17 lengths advance of Oklahoma City at 1’46 to the end of the third quarter (72-72).

Kevin Durant (27 pts, 7 rebounds, 7pds), top scorer of the match was off during the extension (editor’s note, any successful throw) led 9-3 in Memphis. In addition to his 17 pts, Ibaka took 14 rebounds and countered three balloons.

The Grizzlies have won the last three games of the series and led 3 wins to 1.
