About 1/4 of the season is through.

Cade is doubtful. Tobias is questionable (hip)

I can't shake the feeling that Cade could be out for a month+.

For the grizzlies ja morant, zach edey, and gg Jackson are out as well. Kind of bummed, was hoping to see edey play. The grizz have a good record regardless of their injuries so hopefully we can at least keep it competitive.

Grizz keep shooting bricks for 3s. Grizz announcers (Brevin Knight, etc) are saying how the Pistons take/make more mid-range than many teams and it looks like why it's helping us. We take the best shot and go to the hoop. Score at the FT line while putting them in foul trouble

We are horrible on transition three point defense... Our guards are the first ones back and in the paint an they just point out to their man who is wide open that no one picks up in transition. Crazy because once we get to half court we're pretty solid at sticking with the opponent but in transition when they first get the ball up court and we haven't all matched up we are leaving guys wide open at the three point line.

2 Marcus questions:

1. Is Marcus Sasser physically unable to catch a basketball and shoot it? Not even make it, but just shoot it? Everything HAS to be a stepback or off the dribble with him.

2. Why does Marcus Smart always turn into Steph against the Pistons? I'd like to know his numbers against the Pistons in relation to his career numbers.

Sasser + Holland + Ausar + Stew all in together we should be able to get some stops with those guys out there... not sure we will score much but they should start to force some TOs.

Detroit is the 4th worst FT% shooting team in the league.

You would have thought that Thompson would have shot 1,000,000 free throws not being able to play for a half year.

Thanksgiving is coming early for Grizzlies. Ugh.

I liked Sasser's three, but they came right back with a three. Ugh.
