The Memphis Grizzlies got themselves in a hole but the mark of a great team is you have to keep fighting until there are zeroes on the board. The Grizz did that and took the Spurs to an Extra Frame where they lose 93-89. It comes down to things like this in the Logo...teams expend too much energy getting back into the game to where when its time to rise up one last time your favorite Sports Drink can't even get you there.Nine Grizz Players hit the books and ten Spurs Players hit it and that my friends was some high-octane Winning Time in the Logo Hoops right there. Spurs Point God TP9 had a monster game with 15 points but eighteen helpers as he did everything but lead Spurs Nation to their seats. Dunc had 17 points and nine boards while K.L. chipped in with 12 points and nine boards as well. The Difference in the game Spurs +12 from the Arc and the Grizz miss eight from the Charity Stripe. The Money Balls came throughout the game and they were of "Splash Play" or "Dagger" Variety.
The Grizz get massive double-doubles from the Z-Bo (12 pts 14 rebs) and Gasol (15 pts 18 rebs) as both Conley Jr. and Bayless each net 18 points in the loss. The Grizz had their chances and they didn't capitalize on them. The Grizz shoot under 35% from the field and 70% from the stripe won't get you any W's coming out of the Motel. Now its time to regroup and hold serve on your court. Spurs did what they were suppose to do win at home its that simple.
Game 3 will be back in Memphis on Saturday May 25 ay 9pm ET....
