Game Thread: Grizzlies (41-27) @ Spurs (18-51) Friday Mar. 17, 2023 7:00PM CT 2:00AM RIGA

[Mr. Body]

Is Zach Collins the best player on the team? Real question.

[heyheymymy]

Grizz are shook by the Ja suspension? They look flat. Stats have the Grizz as actually pretty good without Ja. I remember in the playoffs last year Ja was out a few games and the Grizz actually kinda looked better.

[Thomas82]

They are mistaken. 3 back only with CHA having no LaMelo and every incentive to lose. Spurs have extra games to play over CHA. Spurs could be 1 game back with like 6 games to go at this pace and then its anyone’s game.

Facts!!

[JPB]

Don’t undersell how good this team is when healthy after losing lazy Jak + Sochan/Branham leaping. MEM has been very good without Ja overall so they are just facing a team that quite frankly looks more talented overall.

Let's say spurs are having a good game and Grizz a terrible one... Maybe if they play again in 2 days, Grizz rout the spurs. But I agree, a lot of promises with what we're seeing tonight.

[Thomas82]

The Hornets are losing by 40 to the Sixers.

The Grizzlies must have forgotten that there was a game tonight.

I'm not underselling them, it's just that they have played a quite a few games against short-handed teams this year.

For example, this same Grizz beat HOU in HOU by 14 not too long ago….Spurs are just better than their record where healthy by a wide margin

[boutons_deux]

tonight, Hornets lose, Spurs win


but 8 of next 12 spurs games on the road.

There’s no really good teams though in the west. Spurs just beat the best one lol. They are all good,but not good good. Not a lot of gap in lottery to playoff teams

[Thomas82]

I guess Pop is just letting them play tonight.

[Thomas82]

We would wait until almost the end of the season with lottery positioning on the line to start this win one/lose one pattern.

[John B]

Sochan still not playing? Is he in a doghouse?

[boutons_deux]

I guess Pop is just letting them play tonight.

I think he treated the entire season as scrimmage, practice, letting the young one get experience with low expectations

We can go on and consider this a win....no way in Memphis is coming back from 27 down.

[heyheymymy]

Zollins 21/7/3/1

6-11, 3-5, 6-6

MONSTAR

[rankingtear]

Pop playing 3 centers for the tank.

[Ocotillo]

Lofton Jr. looks like a Whataburger kind of guy.

[SPURt]

The Spurs can lose this, up 12 goin to the 4th. Crazy.

[Degoat]

Hope y’all are happy we’re losing this game now

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

That end if 3rd lineup though. Pop is doing his best.

[heyheymymy]

Spurs can cough up any lead wow poised to toss this one after being up by as much as 27?

Spurs show what they can do and then deliberately take the foot of the gas for the tank
