Can't wait to see another loss vs Grizzlies...irrespective of what form Grizzlies in, feel like Wolves have had horrendous record against Grizzlies in recent years. My bet is on Dillon Brooks having a 30pts+ game

Grizz are the one team that seems to own the Wolves no matter what

This is the only game I really want to win for the rest of the season. I am sick and tired of the Grizzlies constantly abusing us. We can't do crap against these guys and it's annoying. WOuld love to beat them and send a middle finger to their playoff standings at the same time. I think they are a fun team but I am really tired of them dominating us so lets get a big W. Odds are we get spanked again though, these guys got our number.,

The only exception is we're a far better Wolves team than any they've played for a long time.

Jonas and Ja have to be schemed right tonight. We've had 3 days of practice. We'll be ready.

Juancho is a new human being under Finch.

Grizzlies just out physical us and kick us around all the time. They basically bully our asses.

This team is reverting back to some of their old mistakes on defense...just too many people overhelping on Morant's drives

Towns has to get this foul stuff figured out. It's a big problem this season, I think it's his biggest issue all a sudden.

We also have to get much better at getting to the line. The elite teams get lots of free throws. I think part of that is we have to stop complaining to the refs so much. They can hold it against us cause they know we are a team that always complains and whines to them.

Zion talked about how the calls will come and he didn't get all upset about it and then when he played us a game or two later he was getting every whistle. We need to shut up, play hard, and get more physical. Towns has to get his head right and stop with these crap fouls.

The best ability is availability. KAT keeps making himself unavailable. He is lucky he got away with some bad screens and bad defense early in the first. He needs to either learn to stay on the floor or grow up enough to understand he is the reason the team goes nowhere with him on the bench.

Looking like we are still the little chumps who get bullied by the big bad Grizz. Shame.

This is the worst it has been, I wonder if it has any relation to him playing some of the better defense of his career this season too. I really think he will be at his best when we get another big to be the primary power defender. Either KAT at the 4 or still at the 5 with a big 4 playing next to him to be the rim protector.

Rubio has done nothing this game outside of knocking down free throws. Constantly gets abused.
LETS GO WOLVES!!! 8-)
