Memphis (9) plays more sub-500 teams down the stretch than any team in Western Conference.
Others...
Denver (7)
Houston (5)
Dallas (5)
Phoenix (4)

It'd be nice to go 9-0 in those.

good... we've struggled against plus 500 teams this year

About time. To date, Memphis has had the 5th toughest SOS per ESPN.

The Griz have played the least amount of games in the NBA to date (tied with Heat and Bobcats). Meaning we'll have less days off down the stretch. A favorable schedule should help!

not as bad as you might think... I think we're something like 10-13 against winning teams (would have to check the exact numbers) which isn't terrible, all-told.

What he said... We have several back to backs and one back to back to back coming up!

The remainder of our season is two fold:

1) The next 11 games, including @Miami, @OKC, DAL, @DAL, SA, UTAH and two back to backs and 1 back to back to back mixed in.

and

2) The last 8-9 games... against very very terrible teams down the stretch.

We need to go 6-5 in the next 11 and i'll feel pretty good about our position.. because we can win 8 of 9 coming in if we stay focused.

we need to win tonight...
