    If I was Quinn Snyder I'd do something about that horse tail he calls a hairdo.

    I was going to turn off Jazz/Grizzlies, looked boring. As soon as dishes were done. Did a lot of cooking today including cookies for @PHXBlazer1 and by the time dishes washed Memphis had the lead. Damn!

    it's kind of funny how many are writing off the Lakers after 1 game. I remember the same stuff happening when Portland beat the Lakers in game 1 last season. Charles Barkley was leading the band

    Not to jynx it but if the Grizzlies hold on all the lower seeds in the west will have won game 1 EXCEPT the Fakers. Thats a great day of results to see.

    Before we praise Memphis' drafting skills, let's remember Steph Curry & James Harden were available when they selected Hasheem Thabeet.

    Also- Memphis could've taken Trae Young with their pick and traded it with another pick for Luka Doncic. Before Dallas did.

    It's a different feel than last year. Our team aside from Dame was not gonna compete in a series with the Lakers.

    Phoenix can. They controlled that game.

    He’s going to be a force for a long time in this league. Never ending energy.

    that all may be true. I'm just saying it's premature to write off Lebron and the Lakers
