The Warriors got this in the bag. Jones had 19 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists in Game 4, but it’s going to take more than an elevated performance from Jones for the Grizzlies to extend the series. Ja Morant remains a big question mark for Game 5, but given the importance of this contest, it won’t be surprising if he tries to play through the pain.

Here's a look at three observations from the Warriors' late comeback win in Game 4 against the Grizzlies to take a 3-1 lead in the series.

The veteran sharpshooter notched 14 points on 6-of-20 shooting from the floor with seven boards, two assists, two boards and a steal in 38 minutes. In 26 minutes off the bench, Porter Jr. tallied 12 points on 4-of-7 shooting from the field with three assists, two steals and two rebounds. In the final 12 minutes alone, Curry tallied 18 points on 4-of-7 shooting from the floor with two 3-pointers on 4 attempts from long distance. Through four games, Thompson is now shooting 9-of-35 (25.7%) from the 3-point line in the series. The Warriors started the contest shooting an uncharacteristic 0-of-15 from beyond the arc. Collectively, the Warriors could not find the bottom of the net at Chase Center on Monday night.

Memphis Grizzlies swingman Dillon Brooks got slandered mercilessly after his horrendous Game 4 showing against the Golden State Warriors.

Brooks did somehow finish the game with a team-high eight assists, but many wondered why Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins played him 39 minutes instead of giving somebody else a chance given how damaging his poor shooting was. — Overtime (@overtime)May 10, 2022 — RingerNBA (@ringernba)May 10, 2022 — ClutchPoints (@ClutchPointsApp)May 10, 2022 While it was an admirable effort for the Grizzlies, especially on the defensive end, they naturally struggled offensively against a tough Warriors defense without Morant. Some of those struggles were self-inflicted, though, with Dillon Brooks a major culprit. Unfortunately, the Grizzlies faltered late, suffering a 101-98 defeat to fall down 3-1 in the second-round series.

"I was saying, because Mike was the coach, I felt like we all got traded because there was a lot of talk about him being the head coach, and obviously, all of sudden, now he is the head coach of our team tonight," Curry said. It was about just the vibe of Mike Brown as the head coach of the Kings, and, all of a sudden, now he's the head coach of two teams." "You talk about historically bad shooting — a lot of history was made," Curry said.

"I felt like we got traded to the Kings overnight," Curry said after an ugly Game 4 win.

The Golden State Warriors will reportedly try to close out the Western Conference semifinals in Game 5 without head coach Steve Kerr.

who will take over as head coach of the Sacramento Kings after the playoffs, has been on Kerr's staff since 2016. Golden State dropped 39 points as a team over the final 12 minutes to earn a 101-98 win and take a 3-1 series lead. Brown has served as Golden State's head coach multiple times when Kerr has been unable to do so.

While this series has had some bad blood in it, there was a light moment in last night's game that had NBA fans laughing out loud on Twitter. I'm talking about…

Sorry if you’re a bit confused here, so let me explain. Draymond was in a discussion with a ref when a woman on the sideline tried to calm the situation down all while holding on to her glass of wine. The Golden State Warriors took a commanding 3-1 series lead over the Memphis Grizzlies last night with a 101-98 win at home that was sealed with a huge block by Draymond Green.

Up 3-1 in the series, the Warriors have a chance to close it out in Game 5 on Wednesday night in Memphis.

Santi Aldama (right knee soreness) and Killian Tillie (lower back procedure recovery) are out. MEM: Ja Morant (right knee soreness) is doubtful. The Warriors have a reputation for changing the game with big third quarters, but it’s been their fourth quarter efforts that have been the difference in this series. Playing in the second round of the playoffs for the first time in his career, Andrew Wiggins has been a consistent force for the Warriors this postseason. The Warriors took their first lead of the game on a pair of Stephen Curry free throws with 45.7 seconds left, and Curry put the game away with more free throws, as he scored 18 of his 32 points in the final period. The Warriors, who won Game 1 in Memphis, have won a road game in 25 straight playoff series, and they’ll look to get a second road win in what is sure to be a tough road environment.

It looks like Mike Brown will coach the Warriors again in Game 5 against the Grizzlies because of Steve Kerr's COVID bout.

As of right now, it looks like it will be Brown manning the sidelines again for this potential closeout game: Namely, Stephen Curry snapped out of it with 18 points in the final frame. While things didn’t go well for much of Game 4, Brown’s Warriors snuck away with a 101-98 victory to take a 3-1 lead in the second-round series.

Of that group, Bane is arguably their best player, having averaged 18.2 points during the regular season. One thing complicating matters for the Warriors is they will be without head coach Steve Kerr for Game 5. The closeout."

When the Grizzlies are missing Ja Morant, the Warriors are clearly the better team in this scenario. At this point, the Golden State Warriors know what they need to do in order to get a win. It's not impossible by any means, but it's going to be tough for them to rally a performance like that again in Game 5.
