Bruh, this is a battle as old as time itself. The grizzlies and suns have had more memorable playoff games than grains of sand on the beach.

And when you look at Marc gasol and what he's done to that franchise he's changed everything. We celebrate his brilliance and when you talk to Marc Gasol you realize what a classical human being he is. It was 211 years ago today, Beethoven's Symphony No. 3 in Eflat, which escorted in the age of Romanticism in music. And when I think of Marc Gasol, I think of Beethoven and the age of the Romantics. This guy has it all.

That 2005 series against the Grizzlies was epic.

This team is a mess. Only partially watching cause i'm still at work, but... they need to be actively tanking at this point. They looked to be putting it together not too long ago and look worse than they did at the beginning of the season lately.

A Len post up is almost a guaranteed turnover.

Love the defense there by Barbosa. Some brazilian jiu jitsu maybe?
