This is no zigzag or bounceback here per se. But the basic premise does apply indirectly. I have never been a fan, corroborated by my wallet, of fast tempo teams in the postseason. Golden State led the league in possessions per 48 minutes. That converts to inconsistency in postseason.

Memphis is more of a team built for the postseason. Golden State is built to be predictably unpredictable. The money line is tempting.
