We've won three in a row on the road against West Conference foes...the Denver win being the most impressive...and 6 out of 7 total (the one loss being the Rudy suspension game). So it's time to keep rolling. Knowing the nature of this team, tonight's game is the kind of game we don't show up for. But the Grizzlies are going to roll out a lineup that will look more like a G League team than an NBA team, so we should be able to prevail even with the half-hearted effort I expect.
I liked Ant's post game comments after the Denver win when asked about being doubled..."my 4 is better than their 3". I love how he is finding Rudy after being doubled, and Rudy is making the right pass after he catches the ball. Some real growth by Ant and Rudy, and it leads to some wide open looks. Tonight though I think they see a different defense. Memphis likes to faceguard Ant with the annoying Jaylen Wells, so he may seem fewer double teams than usual...let's see how he responds.
A win tonight moves us into a virtual tie with the Rockets for third place. I still have our squad finishing 5th, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them put on a late season run like they did last year to challenge for 3rd. Let's keep it going!

Finch ran a straight 8-man rotation against Denver. Does it expand to 8.5 with SloMo making his debut tonight?
Hopefully, the game is well-in-hand and lots of guys get into the game!

ANT added to the injury list as Questionable -- right foot injury maintenance.
It seems he usually plays, but Memphis offers a great opportunity to take the night off.

ANT is a GO. Finch says SloMo will play tonight.

Ominous start…
Re: Let's keep rolling- Griz/Wolves GDT
At the very least can we not leave Wells wide open?

NAZ is being a turnover machine…

Memphis is shooting at a crazy clip so that should cool down, but wow is the offense sloppy.
Randle should just never take another 3, he's not a good 3 point shooter and it just shouldn't be a part of the offense.
