Oklahoma City, OK (Sports Network) - Zach Randolph came up big for Memphis again, posting 34 points and 10 rebounds as the Grizzlies defeated Oklahoma City, 114-101, in the opener of their second-round playoff series. Randolph had 31 points and 11 rebounds on Friday, when Memphis closed out its Western Conference quarterfinal matchup against San Antonio. It was a monumental victory for the Grizzlies, who had never won a playoff series before and made the Spurs the second No. 1 seed to fall in the first round since the best-of-seven format was instituted. Randolph was strong once again Sunday, hitting 12-of-22 shots and making all nine free throws. Marc Gasol added 20 points and 13 boards as the Grizzlies, the surprise of this postseason, got off a strong series start. Game 2 is set for Tuesday, back at Oklahoma City Arena. Any time you win on the road in the playoffs, its a steal, said Grizzlies head coach Lionel Hollins. Thats what we did. We came in here and we stole one. Kevin Durant had 33 points and 11 rebounds to lead the fourth-seeded Thunder, who defeated Denver in five games in the first round and are considered by many to be a developing juggernaut in the West. But they were out-played Sunday by the Grizzlies, who won three of the four matchups during the regular season, held a 52-38 advantage in points in the paint and forced 18 turnovers with tenacious defense. Those stats reflected in Oklahoma Citys individual performances. While Thunder forward Serge Ibaka had 16 points, 11 boards and five blocks, center Kendrick Perkins finished with two points and six rebounds in 29-plus minutes as he helped guard Randolph. Additionally, point guard Russell Westbrook committed seven turnovers against six assists, and shot 9-of-23. He ended with 29 points and eight rebounds. It was my fault, Westbrook said. I did not take care of the ball. It starts with me. I just have to take better care of the ball. Oklahoma City trailed nearly the entire game, and held its largest lead when Westbrook hit a jumper 73 seconds into the game for a 4-2 edge. But Randolph scored the next five, and Memphis held a slight lead for the rest of the quarter, finishing with a 28-24 edge. The Grizzlies bench helped them take control during a crucial stretch in the second. With Memphis already leading by seven, Shane Battier intercepted a bad pass with just under eight minutes to play, leading to a Darrell Arthur jumper that began a six-point burst. Arthur blocked an Ibaka jumper at the other end, and Westbrook turned the ball over on Oklahoma Citys next two touches. Sam Young then tipped in a shot before Randolph hit a fadeaway for a 45-32 advantage midway through the quarter. Hes a good player, Thunder head coach Scott Brooks said. We have to limit his touches and make the ones that he does get, tougher. We have to crowd the paint. Memphis led by as many as 16 in the quarter, including when Tony Allen sank a layup during a sequence that typified Sundays contest. Gasol gained possession after Westbrook lost the ball, then passed to Mike Conley, who threaded a pass between two defenders for Allen, who finished the play for a 56-40 cushion. The Thunder climbed within 57-47 at the break and closed within a possession several times early in the third. They were still within striking distance when Nick Collison drove for a hook shot with 3:18 on the clock, making it a 75-71 contest. But they didnt score for the rest of the quarter, turning the ball over twice and missing five shots. The dry stretch allowed the Grizzlies to increase their lead to 84-71 heading into the fourth, and they led by at least seven, and by as many as 17, during the final quarter.

Uncharacteristically low technical marks dropped Duhamel and Radford to bronze, and left the Canadians puzzled about exactly what went wrong after a performance that brought the crowd to its feet. "Despite the mistakes, we did feel the energy in the building... We still gave a standing ovation performance," Radford said. "I think thats what well concentrate on, the potential of that program. I think the potential is huge, I think that its podium potential at the Olympics when we skate technically the way that we can, and hit our levels the way we normally do." Stefania Berton and Ondrej Hotarek won gold with 193.92 points, while Chinas Sui Wenjing and Han Cong claimed the silver (193.77). Paige Lawrence of Kennedy, Sask., and Rudi Swiegers of Kipling, Sask., were fourth. Skating to music from "Alice in Wonderland," Duhamel, in a purple dress, and Radford, clad in purple suit as the Mad Hatter -- minus the hat -- scored 190.62 points and had the Canadian fans on their feet cheering before the last few rotations of their final spin. A groan went up moments later after their marks were displayed, which included zero points for a bungled lift where Duhamel slipped down Radfords back before he barely had her up in the air. Radford, from Balmertown, Ont., believed a shoulder injury Duhamel suffered when she fell three weeks ago might have been partly to blame. "Through rehab we had to change the technique on the lift a little bit," RRadford said.dddddddddddd. "Its hard to put your finger on it." Duhamel, a native of Lively, Ont., said the lift just "went up in a funny spot." "When its in the middle of the program toward the end and something goes up a little bit funny, it become a little bit more difficult to save something like that," she said. More worrisome than the lift is the fact the world bronze medallists had low marks on almost all of their elements. "Were a little bit confused right now, so thats what we need to look at," Duhamel said. "Were not used to getting a really high artistic score and a really low technical score, this is different for us." There was more disappointment on the Canadian team Saturday when Kaetlyn Osmond, a 17-year-old from Marystown, N.L., withdrew with a hamstring injury. Osmond was fifth in Fridays short program and then woke up Saturday with pain in her leg. She tried to practice but said it was painful even putting weight on the leg. Berton and Hotarek, meanwhile, claimed Italys first Grand Prix pairs gold. "We like to write history, what can I say? Just kidding," said Berton. "We worked a lot, and we not only worked on our technique, our elements, but we worked a lot on us as people and how to work together. "Last week in the U.S. at Skate America (where they were fifth) we had issues, I was upset, I was the most upset of the team between us and the coach... I think whats very good about today and yesterday is that none of us gave up, we all skated together, and we just decided to try and try again." cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
