Grizz need to get this win back from earlier this season. Revenge game.

We were down early on, but we have since taken the lead. Still, too close for comfort.

Wayne Ellington's three ties it to end the 3rd. JaVale McGee has killed us in the paint and Andre Miller has done some damage shooting over Conley and then attacking the rim.

You won't find me complaining too often but there's been some serious home court calls from the refs.

This game is proof that the NBA is rigged. I don't think I'll ever bet on another game. If this **** isn't fixed... then I don't know what to call it.

Literally 0 free throws, Grizzlies getting fouled shot after shot and never getting to the line. Nuggets getting to the line on every attempt.

It has been very poorly officiated. Gay clearly was fouled going to the basket down 1. Now it's a 3 point lead.

Gay's game tying attempt roles around every part of the rim and then out. That game really left a bad taste in my mouth. We played terribly, but there were some seriously awful calls and you could just see it on the face of Rudy Gay.

The Vegas line was surprisingly low and actually -1 in favor of the Nuggets, and it was one of those "fishy" lines.

You have the Grizzlies, one of the best teams in the league, and on a 14-5 run...playing a team that hasn't been home in 3 weeks and they were spotted points.

But what was the free throw discrepancy? How many more FTs did the Nuggets shoot?

I really thought the team had turned the corner and no longer lost games like these. I guess the bad habits of the past are harder to let go.

this is going to be a really tough match on Saturday night. Grizz need to come out with playoff intensity. Let's get a win streak going. If they come out hard the Nuggets might fold. They are facing second of a back-to-back against a Dallas team that is playing for their lives right now. That loss in OT was simply tragic last night. Dallas Denver game Friday is going to be pretty tough but expect Denver to cruise to a win. THen they'll cruise right into the lion's den in Memphis Saturday night I hope.
