National tv game. Gotta make sure we don't overlook the Lakers even with AD and possible Bron out.

Yeah this one stings. I think that LA night life got our young guys. Props to the Lakers for fighting all game and getting it done at the end.

I had a feeling with the way the Cavs game went in spite of the win that a loss was coming around the corner. Plus what happened during halftime with Shannon Sharpe didn't help the situation.

The Sharpe situation is crazy. He yelled at Brooks, Brooks said "F- you" back, and then Sharpe got upset and went after anyone not named Adams. Then he was allowed to return to his seats and keep watching the game after that stunt.

All of this stemmed from Shannon's critiques of the Grizzlies from a December episode of Undisputed. It's fine that as the analyst he can critique topics for better and worse. On Friday night, Shannon allowed his professional bias to become personal towards the Grizzlies. When he stated his critiques against the Grizzlies, it was like he was personally annoyed and angered by how the Grizzlies carry themselves as a team. It was like the Grizzlies became the anti-thesis to the mantra Sharpe lived by during his playing days.

He took it so personally that he created the situation to which it could've became more volatile than it already did. Dillon said what he said and went to the locker room. Adams stuck out to me the most in the confrontation. When have we known Adams to get close to someone's face and have words with another individual? Hardly if at all. Anytime Adams does that, somebody screwed up. That somebody was Shannon Sharpe.
