Isaiah Canaan not getting any burn like he was at the beginning of the season. Beverley is out hurt. D-12 out with a knee strain these last few games now. Terrence Jones out hurt as well. Might as well be functioning like a Mash Unit.

That's like tellin the Raptors to go easy on the Grizzlies when they missed nearly half the squad due to the virus outburst from two weeks ago. Good game in spite of the lost.

This is another blowout for the grizz. Just too good right now.

Grizz started off good, but got lazy with the TOs' and the fouls.

Right now the Grizzlies are getting outrebounded, outhustled, and outplayed by the fast paced Rockets team right now. They need to make some adjustments to slow down the Rockets ball movement. Make them earn it from the perimeter and deny them the post. Rebound the ball, and stop turning the ball over.

I see we are still struggling with athleticism and 3 point defense. This was not a good look. I know they can't win them all but I hate to see them drop a game that was winnable because of effort and scheme.

In full agreement. The Rockets did beat the Grizzlies to second chance points all night and outran them in transition offense. This is where the Grizzlies miss that athleticism. They need to acquire someone that fits that profile of a hard worker, plays on both ends and can play within the system.
