Game Thread May 23, 2021 07:30PM MT: Jazz vs. Grizzlies - Game 1

[Ineptimusprime]

People, Grizzlies just played their best game possible. Everything broke their way. No Donovan, poor shooting, heaps of turnovers, poor effort, Rudy fouled out and wasn't there in clutch time, both Brooks and Morant went off, Memphis bench played great, Memphis was allowed to play overly physical defense while we had our 2 best players in foul trouble all night... and they won by 3 when we had a chance to send it to overtime. If the Jazz have a pedestrian game with Mitchell we win. The Jazz don't need to be overconfident, but I don't think any differently about this series than I did this morning.

Btw guys, Ernie just said that was the jazz 2nd lowest 3 point shooting game of the entire season. And we had a chance to tie on the last possession.

Think about that

All I can think about is we lost on our home floor to the ****ing 8 seed.

I know we played like ****.
But everyone needs to chill.
We got this.

jazz pct to advance dropped from 95 to 84%. I guess if they’re going to lay an egg, may as well be game one?

The sad part Brooks was 3 steps ahead when he slipped.

Maybe slipped should have quotation marks around it

Quin also has to jump in and stick up for his guys... a couple well placed quotes in the press conference would go a long way too.

Ask for a review on the Brooks headbutt. Get a well placed tech to hopefully affect the officiating. Say something in the press conference about Brooks should foul out in the first quarter if the officiated him like they did Mike. That **** works... it just does. All that **** seems above him.

The refs were atrocious. You got Trent Forrest getting a tech for getting shoved in the chest. Bane talks **** to Niang and stares him down and Niang gets a tech for something he said. Brooks did Brooks **** all game and we get techs for that???? Ends up making a huge difference.

I really miss watching Mitchell play man.

They are a young, emotional team who just upset Golden State. They are riding high. We had them 10+ down then Clarkson came in and played like dog crap.

We let them back in, coasted, and took too long to wake up. This could be a blessing in disguise.

Dude same. The comeback is what makes it worse. The way we looked I would have rather lost by 15 in the end than fall short on a comeback.

Forrest is secretly thrilled it didn’t get any closer.

Hopefully this lights a fire under us to destroy them moving forward and mock them in Memphis

Also, another big **** you to whoever decided Mitchell wasn’t going to play tonight.

Atleast the thing a few guys on this team know about is it's a looooong series. (down 0-1 to Thunder in '18, blew 3-1 to Denver last year in the mickey games) Something the Grizz my overlook come game 2.
