    lack of spacing is killing us right now. having to rely on isos for everything. everyone looks too gassed to beat their guy off the dribble.

    I like that the call out of the timeout was "Jerami... just charge at the rim...... agian."

    Grant should not be iso-ing, but that’s not his role on a good team. He’s forced to do it here because we have no one that can create offense.

    Poor defense by Memphis allowing us to get to the rim given the circumstance.

    And throw up a wild shot that has no chance of going in.

    i would throw a wrench into this and insert Murray in the 4th to start for 2 mins. see if he suddenly figures out he can knock a few shots down. would open up so many lanes for us. they're just packing it in.

    You want him to turn into Chris Paul at age 29 or something?

    If you look at the numbers you'd think this is a game of two elite defenses but instead what we have is a barely watchable game between two teams that can't make shots they should definitely be making.

    Williams and Walker are a solid front court off the bench

    Maybe I'm crazy, but JJJ is wildly overrated.
