That offensive rebound giving Bogdanovic a reload 3pt should be the dagger, imo.

Conley has been low key the most consistent top player in the series.

Ja Morant needs to get a jumpshot if MEM wants to be anything more than 1st round fodder. Melton cannot be your go to guy down the stretch.

Too much talent on the Jazz team for the Grizz to overcome, no matter how hard they try - Gotta be super frustrating.

I really doubt Morant's numbers in this series would have been the same if Jazz treated him like a star guard...feel like they decided to let Ja get his and haven't respected his jump shot at all...he has gotten so many open looks from 3

The three ball is God the three ball is life. You can't do it, you can't succeed in today's game, unfortunately.

They’ve treated him like a star. His shot just isn’t there yet. They decided to give him to 3 to try to stop his dominance inside

Like any good team would do

If that dude starts hitting off the bounce 3s he’s gonna be a perennial all star

Whatever the Jazz have done to neutralize Valanciunas the last two games has really worked.

Just another play showing how out of rhythm Donovan is. Glad he has this series to start working the rust off.

You can see that Conley is visibly annoyed by Donovan Mitchell for continually not passing him the ball here in foul situations. And he should be. Mitchell is being a ball-hog right now.

Ultimately a lot of this comes down to experience. Grizzlies have had chances to win every game that they’ve lost but down the stretch couldn’t finish it off

This experience for such a young team is gonna pay dividends for the future. Probably a 5 or 6 seed next year with continued development of their young guys and hopefully having JJJ throughout the season

Utah is clearly the better team and likely to win this series but Grizz have made these games competitive by putting up a good fight

Grizz are just too young. They got it down to 4, had the crowd behind them. Ja turnover, Conely three, bad shot, then offensive rebound leading to Bogdan three. That was the game.

Glad the fans are giving them a good round of applause even though they lost.
