Need to key in on Caldwell Pope because he can fill it up from the outside when he gets hot. He's also a solid athlete at the NBA level. They play way too many bigs and for that reason I think we match up well with them. We must contain Drummond's length and athleticism in the paint and let Josh Smith beat us from the three point line.

Sounds like the Pistons gave the Grizz some fits in the first half, but they managed to get things together in the second half and kept the Pistons at bay. As long as they managed to win out is good enough to keep going in the right direction.

They were able to beat us off the dribble a bit in the fourth and Zach couldn't connect on some easy ones, but we maintained our poise on the offensive end and eeked one out here. Have to contain penetration better moving forward.

That's a must. Especially that Houston is next up on the list. The Rox are having a good of a season as the Grizzlies are right now.
