Who: Memphis Grizzlies(17-16) @ Utah Jazzhands(18-16)
When: Wednesday, January 6th
Where: EnergySolutions Arena, Salt Lake City, Utah
Time: 8:00 PM CST
TV/Radio: FSTN,FSUT / WRBO 103.5FM
Season Series: 0-1
Team Trivia: Utah would enter a rare 4 game losing streak if they lose, and Memphis would enter a 5 game winning streak. Also, the Grizzlies look to end a 10-game losing streak to the Jazz . I can't believe I spelled all the Utah Jazz players names correctly without looking them up.

We never play well in Utah, so I'm not expecting a win . . . I didn't expect a three road game winning streak either . . .

I read on twitter that Deron Williams's wrist has gotten worse in the last 48 hours and may not play tonight.

Neither did I. At least we're playing solid so far.

If what you say is true. Then it's bad for Utah and good for us. W/o D-Will in the lineup. The Jazz ball movement will be jacked up a bit.

Ugly second quarter. Maybe we'll decide to play defense again in the second half.

From the way they played tonight, they simply ran out of gas. At least they end their current road record 3-1 along with seeing them get above .500 for the first time in a long time. That's better than nothing. Also we get one more crack at them on Friday. So a little revenge game is in order.
