Should have been a triple doubles if our shooters would have made a few of those wide open threes that Lebron created.

Hey, at least you're trying to improve your situation. This game was a difficult one to watch the whole thing through, but I'm glad you stuck with it. |
thanks man. My wife did yell at me. |

We managed to creep up to a whole 28% from 3 by the end of the game (thanks DLO  ) |

What a win... One of the best 22pts performance I have seen.
Survived a game with a bad AD offensive game, and Lebron scoring below average.
Rui came back down to earth tonight. But Vando/Schro picked up the slack. |

Tonight’s game was amazing!
Our Lakers squad all HEART 💜💛💜💛💜 |

They may be thinking that at tip off. Lakers by double digits to close it out.
Tonight was a huge win for momentum. Lakers gained some swagger and Grizz lost some of theirs IMO. Young team that now has doubts and will play desperately and make too many mistakes.
Lakers come out focused and hitting shots and the Grizz will fold.
Impressive win for the Lakers. Now time to finish the job and move on to the next series. No lapses or weak efforts. |

But Lakers just have to hang with them and then close it out in the fourth don’t get too far down in the scoring department
This is going to be a rough game. They’re already fouling like crazy. |

Dillon Brooks really talked big after that 1 win and then declined to speak post game after 2 straight losses.
Guy has no balls. |

Isn't it wild that AD got an elbow to the balls, and we don't really talk about it much? Imagine if Bane got ejected, then. I'd much rather face the grizzlies without Brooks, than them without Bane.
Bane had a great game, and we sort of stemmed the tide there.
In Memphis you have to figure they'll make a lot more shots than they did, and get a lot more calls than they did. Ja is a foul merchant, and its a very lucrative market now. So we have to be cautious |

Ja they'll probably give him a pass, but this is the second game in a row that Dillon has skipped. So it's time for him to grow on up and handle his media business.

Should have been reviewed for a hostile act. That was 100% an intentional elbow to the groin. |
