Just like people over-react to 1 game, people also over-react to 1, 2 or 3 quarters of domination. Memphis was very, very lucky to shoot lights-out like they did, THEY CAN NOT MAINTAIN THAT.
Any time a team gets a 27 point lead over another NBA team it's mostly because every single thing went their way not because they are so much better than their opponent.
I would have to question how many NBA Playoff games you've watch as stuff like this happens every year with teams winning big 1 game then losing the next.
Memphis is in NO-WAY heads and shoulders better than the Clippers.
