NBA Wednesday: Steph Curry goes off as Warriors take Game 5

The Golden State Warriors made their adjustments in Game 4 and came away with a lopsided 101-84 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies. Now they have a chance to take back the series lead as the two teams meet Wednesday night for Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals at Oracle Arena.

The Warriors entered the series favored after a league-leading 67 wins during a regular season and a first-round sweep of the New Orleans Pelicans, but they ran into some trouble from a strong, physical Memphis team in the first few games. The Grizzlies ground out a 2-1 series lead with back-to-back wins in Games 2 and 3, leaving some to wonder whether the Warriors' magic had been figured out.

That doesn’t appear to the case, however, if Game 4 was any indication. The Warriors came out firing on all cylinders at FedExForum, shooting 48 percent with 14 three-pointers, and held the Grizzlies to 38 percent shooting with 16 turnovers. Now the series is tied 2-2 and the Warriors are back to having homecourt advantage.

Stephen Curry was electric in the win, finishing with 33 points, eight rebounds and five assists, and Draymond Green finally found his game with 16 points, 10 rebounds and four assists. Four different players -- Curry, Green, Klay Thompson, Andre Iguodala -- made at least three three-pointers, while the Grizzlies made four as a team.

That formula of unstoppable shooting and stout defense is what made Golden State such a force during the regular season and first-round series against New Orleans, and it was all on display in Game 4. Now it's on the Grizzlies to make some adjustments, and we'll see what Dave Joerger has up his sleeves.

One possible change could involve Tony Allen, who played just 16 minutes Monday after averaging over 32 minutes over the first eight playoff games this year. Allen was ice-cold in Game 4, but the Grizzlies may not be able to maintain their defensive intensity for 48 minutes when he's playing a big part.
