Memphis vs Utah teams.....theme of the day


Grizz struggling again

Grizz are in a funk

Really playing down to the opponent lately

Funking funk

Have not been the same since TA went out

Wow, gonna lose to the Jazz

C Lee, top 3 pt % in the league......0-6



We are really in a funk

FUNK

Another one of the worst 3 pt shooting teams in the league lights us up for 50%. About to lose to the freaking Jazz at home.

No Zbo, Q, TA or Calethas

Utah wins their first West Conf road game of the year

Sick

These last three games have been pathetic performances. Lack of energy outside of Mike. Defensive intensity had been lacking, physical play has been absent, and again energy.

The longer Zach and Tony are out the longer this streak is going to go. Great teams don't have long losing steaks

I don't think this team is as deep as everyone thinks it is. Other teams lose a starter or two and keep rolling, but if we're missing Conley, ZBo, or Gasol we usually don't play well. There's no elite scorer to carry the team like Houston has in James Harden. It really is a committee effort to get the 100 points the Grizz need to win comfortably every night.

When we're missing key players, the scoring has to be made up elsewhere... it seems like the remaining members of the team avoided shooting more than usual when someone needed to step up. That's not going to get it done.

How does the road team shoot 19 more free throws?

Not blaming the refs.....but how does this happen?

Thought we were going to get a huge lift when VC's tomahawk jam tied the game mid 4th and ignited the crowd. We quickly gave the momentum back by missing open look 3's. Glad Grizz have 3 days off. They need it.

This team is deep, but the two guys who are out bring something to the court that doesn't show up on highlights or the stat sheet.

I disagree about the shooting aspect. Mike, Marc, and Lee all shot the ball enough. Vince and beno took shots as will.

The problem is Tony and Zach bring that nastiness that nobody else brings.

TA and Zach are Memphis Basketball...they are Grit and Grind, the identity of Grizz basketball.
