It would have been nice if our guys knew that Doug McDermott is not Larry Bird.

Shot blocking on the second unit is a necessity, especially if ZBo is in the game.

TA ran out of gas, as the water was turned off on Jimmy Butler for three quarters.

We are starting to be a little predictable making plays for T.Daniels when we are few points down with minutes to go. _

Sometimes I watch games from our opponents before our game and they dont look half as good as when they play against us. I mean, Mcdermot and Lopez destroyed us. How is that possible?

Remember the time when it was very difficult to score over Gasol? Now everytime there is a one on one with gasol defending, my expectations of him actually stopping the guy are none. Last night it even looked that Lopez has some footwork.

Chicago aren't predicted as a team that would win enough games to slide into the finals due to their lack of perimeter offense. Plus the issue of Rajon Rondo not fitting into the Bulls scheme is playing a role into the Bulls state of influx.

As for the loss itself, the Grizzlies tend to underplay the lower competition at times assuming they can easily get those wins without putting in work. :nonono:

Can't afford to lose these games. The Grizzlies can easily place fourth in the playoff race to being an key injury or two away from missing the playoffs completely.
