What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Damion Lee getting some run late in the first quarter. He doesn’t make a ton of mistakes, and Kerr trusts him. That’s why he gets the nod over Moody and others. – 10:08 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Remember when Steve Kerr said this would be the Warriors’ most physical game of the season? – 10:07 PM
Golden State Warriors @warriors
that’s toughhhh, SC30

Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Wiggins is 0-for-5. Klay is 1-for-3. The Warriors will need a big game from one of them. – 10:06 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Slow Mo fakes the baseline 3, drives for a reverse finish and then then looks at Melton with raised eyebrows like “WOO.”
Holding on, but missing Brooks to check Curry (4-5 so far) is a huge loss. – 10:06 PM
James Boyd @RomeovilleKid
Lol why would you go for a Kyle Anderson pump fake? 😂 – 10:05 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Curry without Dillon Brooks on him is going to be a problem. – 10:04 PM
Memphis Grizzlies @memgrizz
OKAY OKAY SLOMO. – 10:04 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
The Grizzlies have foul problems all over the place. Warriors knew they were going to play physical and doing a good job of turning the contact into fouls. – 10:03 PM
Lang Whitaker @langwhitaker
Nine minutes in and the Warriors have been called for 1 foul. pic.twitter.com/Zj9m0J2sWh10:02 PM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Amazing effort by Steph Curry guarding Melton, he forced that offensive foul on Clarke. – 10:02 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Grizzlies said the 50-50 balls were huge. Everybody dove on that loose ball and it bounces out to Curry wide open for 3.
That’s some terrible luck. – 10:02 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Per @Golden State Warriors PR: Gary Payton II is getting X-rays on his left elbow. His return is TBD. – 10:01 PM
Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
With Dillon Brooks out, who’s gonna goon up Stephen Curry? – 10:01 PM
Mark Haynes @markhaynesnba
GP2 is getting X-rays on his left elbow. His return to the game tonight is TBD. – 10:01 PM
Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Gary Payton II is getting X-rays on his left elbow. He is questionable to return. – 10:00 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Gary Payton II is getting X-rays on his left elbow, per Warriors. Return TBD. – 9:59 PM
Marc J. Spears @MarcJSpears
Warriors say Gary Payton II is getting X-rays on his left elbow. His return is TBD. – 9:59 PM
Jason Dumas @JDumasReports
GPII’s return TBD. Getting an x-ray on his elbow. – 9:59 PM
Golden State Warriors PR @WarriorsPR
Gary Payton II is getting X-rays on his left elbow. His return is TBD. – 9:59 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Damion Lee in for Klay Thompson with 5:39 left in the first quarter. He’s out there with Curry, Poole, Wiggins and Looney. Grizzlies lead the Warriors 13-10. – 9:59 PM
Jason Dumas @JDumasReports
Two early 3s again for Ja. Again, will end up being a blessing in disguise for Golden State.
Keep chuckin’ young fella – 9:58 PM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Grizz are going to have big problems guarding Steph without Brooks. And Tillman is also their only big who really understands what needs to be done vs GSW defensively. Looking like a shootout tonight. – 9:58 PM
Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
The Grizzlies are getting and will continue to get good looks on 3s. It’s as simple as a make or miss game for them. Golden State is choosing to take away the paint (and it should). Ja Morant has made two 3-pointers. Grizzlies 3-9 on 3-pointers so far. – 9:58 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Nine of first 13 Grizzlies field-goal attempts have been 3s. Warriors inducing them to shoot long again. – 9:57 PM
Mark Giannotto @mgiannotto
Eight of the Grizzlies first 12 shots are 3-pointers. That’s exactly what Golden State wants. – 9:57 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Bane didn’t get a shot up at all in his first shift, and with Brooks done for the night, that’s a lot of offensive responsibility on Morant and Jackson. – 9:57 PM
Rob Perez @WorldWideWob

Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
It’s a good thing Ziaire Williams is available for the Grizzlies. He’s going to play more minutes tonight with no Dillon Brooks. – 9:56 PM
Lang Whitaker @langwhitaker
At least Draymond’s exits have been memorable. – 9:55 PM

Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Grizzlies offense got badly out of whack amid all the chaos and lineup changes. Needs to settle down. Clarke coming in should help. – 9:55 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Kevon Looney scores the Warriors’ first bucket of the game with 8:44 left in the first quarter, then Klay Thompson drills a 3-pointer on the following possession. Grizzlies lead 8-6. – 9:55 PM
Jimmy Spencer @JimmySpencer
It’s 8-3 in Tuesday Night Football in Memphis. – 9:54 PM

The Warriors eat Central BBQ for lunch? – 9:54 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
The Warriors have 1 point in four minutes – 9:54 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Melton is on Steph Curry with Brooks out. Melton has really struggled on Steph this season. – 9:53 PM
Clay Bailey @claybailey9
We have barely played 3 minutes and Dillon Brooks has been ejected and two Warriors have gone to the locker room with injuries. And one of them — Draymond Green — just counted the number of Warriors getting checked on with a finger from each hand. – 9:52 PM
Geoff Calkins @geoff_calkins
Draymond, yesterday, talking about playing against friends like Tillman: “The guys you have close relationships with, in a playoff series, they’re going to try to take your head off and you’re going to try to take their head off.” Guess so. – 9:52 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Steve Kerr was ready to cuss Vince Carter out when Patrick McCaw got undercut in Sacramento four years ago, so no shock he gave Dillon Brooks the business for that FF2 – 9:52 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Draymond is now headed to the locker room. – 9:52 PM
Eli Savoie @Eli560
Draymond Green with more birds for the fans(2) than Warriors points so far(1) – 9:51 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Draymod walking off the floor with a noticeable limp. Crazy start here in Memphis. Two Golden State players have headed to the locker room with apparent injuries, and Dillon Brooks has been ejected. Little more than three minutes in. – 9:51 PM
Meghan Triplett @Meghan_Triplett
Draymond Green heads to the locker room after getting elbowed in the face by Xavier Tillman Sr. He gave a not so nice finger as he walked to the tunnel. – 9:51 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Draymond Green is going to the locker room with Andre Iguodala behind him. Some commotion in the tunnel as he walks past. Green and Payton both getting checked out in the back. – 9:51 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Draymond Green to the locker room. And it looked like he gave the double birds on the way out. – 9:51 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Draymond Green is heading back to the locker room. Gary Payton II is already back there. – 9:51 PM
Wes Goldberg @wcgoldberg
Dillon Brooks was the main defender on Steph. Now Grizzlies going with Melton on that last possession after Brooks’ ejection. Two game-changing ejections in two games. – 9:51 PM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Warriors looking like the team that has struggled against Memphis. 4 TOs already, 3 missed shots at the rim. Tillman has two steals. – 9:51 PM
Lang Whitaker @langwhitaker
Draymond is heading to the locker room and gave the crowd a double bird salute on the way – 9:51 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Steve Kerr said during shootaround today that this was going to be the most physical game the Warriors have played all year. So far, that’s exactly what it’s been. – 9:50 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Now Draymond Green is down on the baseline. And Steve Kerr is looking at the officiating crew with his hands up. – 9:50 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Draymond Green is down on the floor along the baseline. Being looked at by a team trainer. – 9:49 PM
Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Draymond Green is now down on the ground holding a towel to his face. I didn’t see what play he was hit on. – 9:49 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Now Draymond Green is down in pain. Warriors have to call a timeout to tend to him – 9:49 PM
Geoff Calkins @geoff_calkins
Now Draymond is down. Slamming his foot to the ground, in pain. – 9:49 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Gary Payton II to the locker room after taking the two free throws. Draymond Green down and in pain grabbing the right side of his face. Rough start for the Warriors – 9:49 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Oh man now Draymond Green is down. – 9:49 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
After shooting the free throws, GPII heads to the locker room. Looked to be in a bit of a daze after that hard hit by Brooks. – 9:49 PM
Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Steve Kerr yells “Get the f–k out of here” toward the Memphis bench after the refs eject Brookes. – 9:48 PM
Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
This changes everything from a planning perspective. Dillon Brooks had done solid work on Stephen Curry. De’Anthony Melton and Ziaire Williams will have to be big for Memphis. – 9:48 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Dillon Brooks gets called for a Flagrant 2 for his foul on Gary Payton II and has been ejected. Payton II stepped up to the line and knocked down one of two free throws, and now he’s heading back to the locker room. Jordan Poole checks in to replace him. – 9:48 PM
Malika Andrews @malika_andrews
Wow. Less than 3 minutes in and Dillon Brooks is tossed… – 9:48 PM
Mark Haynes @markhaynesnba
Dillon Brooks is ejected. – 9:48 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Steve Kerr screaming down at the Memphis bench after that Dillon Brooks foul and ejection: “Get the f*** out of here.” Klay Thompson: “That’s bull****.” As upset as I’ve seen them at a foul. – 9:48 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
De’Anthony Melton, welcome to the spotlight. – 9:48 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Dillon Brooks just received a flagrant-2 and has been ejected from the game less than three minutes in. Brooks is the Grizzlies’ best defender on Steph Curry. – 9:47 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
What a shitty play by Dillon Brooks. That was awful. Rightfully called a Flagrant 2 and an ejection. – 9:47 PM
Meghan Triplett @Meghan_Triplett
Dillon Brooks gets a flagrant 2 and has been ejected from the game. – 9:47 PM
Ben Golliver @BenGolliver
Grizzlies’ Dillon Brooks has been ejected for a Flagrant Foul 2. There’s 9:08 left in the first quarter. – 9:47 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Dillon Brooks has been ejected. Leaving the court. – 9:47 PM
Clay Bailey @claybailey9
Be interesting to see how the officials handle this foul on Brooks. Given the way Draymond was handled. – 9:47 PM
Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
Flagrant 2. Dillon Brooks is ejected – 9:47 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Dillon Brooks has been ejected on a flagrant 2. – 9:47 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Flagrant foul 2 on Dillon Brooks. He is ejected. – 9:47 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Draymond gonna whip out his phone and tweet an emoji in-game if this isn’t a flagrant 2 – 9:47 PM
Tony Mejia @MejiaDinero
Dillon Brooks’ foul was more flagrant-2 worthy than Draymond Green’s on Sunday. – 9:46 PM
Mark Giannotto @mgiannotto
Dillon Brooks might not be long for this game. That’s a bad foul. – 9:46 PM
Drew Shiller @DrewShiller
That foul by Dillon Brooks was worse than Draymond’s Flagrant-2 – 9:46 PM
Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Gary Payton II falls down hard after Dillon Brookes clobbers him in the head and is getting looked at by a trainer. Steve Kerr is absolutely livid, yelling “that is bulls–t” toward the refs and JJJ. – 9:46 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Hard Dillon Brooks foul on Gary Payton II. Looks like Payton really injured his left arm. Steve Kerr yelling at the referees to review it. Steph Curry waving at Brooks. Warriors think he should be ejected. We will see. – 9:46 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Steve Kerr wants a flagrant 2 on Dillon Brooks. – 9:46 PM
Austin Krell @NBAKrell
If Draymond gets an F2 for the hit in Game 1, Brooks should definitely get an F2 for that. – 9:46 PM
Marc J. Spears @MarcJSpears
Was that for the ball or GPII head? Interesting to see how the ref’s view this. Draymond watching closely. – 9:46 PM
Ben Golliver @BenGolliver
Warriors Coach Steve Kerr is irate at hard foul in transition by Dillon Brooks that sent Gary Payton II flying to the court. “Flagrant 2!” he said, after some unprintable comments. – 9:46 PM
Connor Letourneau @Con_Chron
Gary Payton II having a hard time getting up after taking a pretty hard hit from Brooks. – 9:45 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Gary Payton II is down after a hard foul and Steve Kerr is LIVID – 9:45 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Dillon Brooks is probably getting a flagrant for that one. – 9:45 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Three turnovers for the Warriors – 9:45 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Gary Payton II just took a hard fall. He’s hurt. Steve Kerr is pissed. – 9:45 PM
Meghan Triplett @Meghan_Triplett
Not even 3 minutes into the game and the Warriors already have 3 turnovers! – 9:45 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Not a great start for the Warriors… – 9:44 PM
Lang Whitaker @langwhitaker
This is the first three minute stretch of the Grizzlies postseason without a foul called. Probably. – 9:44 PM
Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Again, back-to-back Grizzlies threes to start the game – 9:44 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
8-0 Grizzlies lead. – 9:44 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
JJJ and Ja Morant triples to start. WooWeee. Here we go. – 9:43 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Jaren Jackson Jr. picks up right where he left off, knocking down a 3-pointer to open the scoring tonight. – 9:42 PM

Desmond Bane (back) will start for the Grizzlies tonight. Memphis head coach Taylor Jenkins said the second-year guard would be a game-time decision. – 9:20 PM
Clay Bailey @claybailey9
Your starters for Game 2 of the GSW-Memphis series: GSW: Curry, Thompson, Green, Wiggins and Gary Payton II.
Grizz start: Xavier Tillman, Dillon Brooks, Ja, Jaren, Bane.
Set your fantasy lineups and put down your bets accordingly. – 9:19 PM
Clay Bailey @claybailey9
The Xavier Tillman lineup stays intact for Game 2. – 9:16 PM
Clay Bailey @claybailey9
Good grief, this is a late start, so here are your officials for Game 2 of the Second round of the GSW-Memphis series: Scott Foster, Eric Lewis and Mitchell Ervin. Your alternate is Scott Twardoswki. Are you awake, @badunclep ?? – 9:16 PM

Ziaire Williams is a big return. John Konchar has been great this season, he didn’t give good minutes in Game 1. Williams is another lengthy defender the Grizzlies can throw at the Warriors’ shooters. – 9:10 PM

No matter what kind of guard you are – point, shooting, combo, unicorn – it’s exceedingly difficult to shoot 72.7pct and 75pct from 3 over six playoff games.

Taylor Jenkins isn’t giving any hints. Bane is a game-time decision, so is Ziaire Williams, and he declined to share his starting lineup. – 7:52 PM
Meghan Triplett @Meghan_Triplett
Desmond Bane is a game-time decision, per Coach Jenkins. Jenkins said he tested out this morning and is making progress but they are going to get one final look before the game.
Ziaire Williams is also a game-time decision tonight for the @Memphis Grizzlies. – 7:50 PM
Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
Re: Desmond Bane – Game-time decision vs Warriors, per Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins – 7:48 PM
Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
Taylor Jenkins says Desmond Bane is a gametime decision. The team will give it one more look before a decision is made. – 7:48 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Taylor Jenkins says Desmond Bane is a game-time decision with a back issue. Jenkins says the team will see how Bane is feeling later. – 7:48 PM
