    Very good half by us and that was the best 2nd quarter in long time. But the game not over we must repeat what we did this half into the 2nd half.

    You cannot get fat and happy. Lead is not safe. Already Nurk made a stupid glory hounding turnover and CJ’s long cross court pass on the fast break was not smart given all the wide open space in front of him.

    We held them to 20 percent from the 3 and held to 14 points in the paint and out rebound them by 7. Offense we had 12 assist shot 54 percent and 45 percent.

    And probably our low turnovers helped with those defensive stats.

    Stotts thinks those Melo shots are quality looks. He would need to sit himself down.

    Stay solid for the next 5-6 minutes and they'll lose hope.

    When we win tonight Stotts should be mandated to say, "Our shots were just falling and theirs weren't. That's all there was to it."

    I am so utterly confused by the play we see here versus last weekend. Just can't figure it.

    Number if Bonehead plays is mounting. This is how you lose won games. CJ just drive into a packed in defense then there a blind pass to the Grizzlies for a layup. Covington carelessly gets stripped.
