Is Ja in or out?
He was listed as questionable.

Morant will be starting, yes. It will be interesting to see what Coach Vogel comes up with to slow him down.

Revenge game. This time it is the Grizzlies on the second night of a back-to-back.

Memphis starting 5 has a combined under 30 points per game, the question is who is/are getting their career high tonight?
Tyus Jones? Bronnie’s ex teammate Zaire?
Monk is due to a bad shooting night, also Russ’ low turnover game, which one will happen first?

Ever the optimist! Perhaps Ja Morant is due for a bad shooting night.

Is Russ not ashamed of consistently shooting so many air balls? How does a professional player shoot so many air balls. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it. Russ’ air balls are akin to a professional golfer consistently whiffing.

The most since Lonzo. He airballed FT to the side of the basket. I've watched a lot of basketball and I had never seen an adult miss everything to the side of the hoop like he did.

It's Bron or nothing right now.

Vogel’s subs have been on point so far.

LeBron off to a great start. Memphis is playing very good defense, so baskets are hard to come by.

Welcome sighing from THT knocking down those shots.

Oops, didnt mean to take someone’s role here. Hopefully we wont see Nosebleeds’s numerous rants “Lakers suck Westbrook suck Lol”
Maybe Stanley makes 4 3 pt shots tonight, he’s due too.

A THT sighting. He's picked it up when Bron had to go to the Bench.

Westbrook hit the side of the board with a shot again and then took a charge on the other end.
So frustrating this guy.

Westbrook decided to keep it at the end of the quarter, when he has a Hall of Fame sharpshooter right next to him on the court. Ego.

Summary of Russell Westbrick's shooting:

euphorbus · Post #18 » by **euphorbus** » Mon Jan 10, 2022 3:10 am

It's looking like rugby out there.

euphorbus · Post #19 » by **euphorbus** » Mon Jan 10, 2022 3:12 am

LeBron needs to shut up.

Landsberger · Post #20 » by **Landsberger** » Mon Jan 10, 2022 3:19 am

Only 3 turnovers and still dow 6.
