GAME 30: MEM vs LAC
Posted: Wed Dec 25, 2024 8:25 pm
114-110 CLIPPERS
Both teams are for the other the worst pain in the ass this League can provide. By a mile.
Balanced game: we couldn't impose our relentless tempo at all but they were forced to run more than they wanted.
Smart rotations from Lue: he risked some streaks in our favor just to allow The Beard enough time to recover some breath... he was benched more than half 4th Quarter and he was completely fit and fresh for the clutch.
Whatever Late pre Season standings tell I think these are two teams with a very similar level of power, each into his own style.
Supposedly Fun Guy's return should break that balance and turn the tides into their favor... but there are plenty of other factors to consider.
We missing Jay Huff for instance.
I know 4th Center at the rotation shouldn't bring much of an impact.
But this is Grizzlies rotation... and I guess I have an idea how Clippers' Big men rotation works.
So I missed The Virginian badly.
