Draymond Green had only 4points, but had a triple double...
12 rebounds
10 assists
10 steals.

Dominated the grizz.

This team still sucks.

This team is embarrassingly sucky.

Last 5 games have been horrificly bad.

Loss to Dallas.
Double digit loss to Houston
Double digit loss to Brooklyn (!)
Double digit loss to Clippers.
Double digit loss to Atlanta.

I'm not sure when they win another game.

And I'm not sure when they will win again.

After looking horrible and losing 5 games in a row, the Grizzlies shut down Parsons...and immediately started a 4 game winning streak.


From the Spurs side, that wasn't close to the Tony Parker of old....

The game against the Spurs included entertainment from DDP, Scott Steiner, Buff Bagwell and XPac.

Apparently Grizz won the title from XPac

At least the game wasn't a 9:30 start.

This series is over. Can we just default the next two games?

Kawhi had 19 free throws. Memphis had 15. Refs=SA MVP.

Coach Fizdale mentioned that in his postgame press conference. He probably cost himself at least 25 grand but I'm sure it's worth it to him. His last words were awesome. "Take that for data!"

I think if he were a little more famous, it could have been a pretty memorable press conference. I'm not sure what could be the more memorable phrase, "Take that for data" or "They not gonna rook us"

There have been some pretty good follow ups.

I just hope the result is some more competitive games.

Fiz has been on a little ref rampage since Conley got called for an offensive foul during this regular season game vs. Spurs.

Grizz put Natch through a table again.

For two mascots battling on a ledge and involving ladders, this was pretty good.

Spurs-Grizzlies Game 4 had a 2.5 overnight earlier in the evening, up 19% from Thunder-Mavericks last year (2.1) and up 9% from Warriors-Pelicans in '15 (2.3).

Grizzlies have no match for Kawhi.

And there are at least 3 guys playing that could not or did not make the Spurs roster.

Jam Green was cut by Spurs.
Selden was available for all 30 teams until last month.
Andrew Harrison should be available to all 30 teams

Who does? I guess Cleveland, but LeBron can't carry everything on both end of the court.

For Grizz free agency:

Vince - Surely he goes to GSW or Cleveland or Toronto
Tony & Zach - Will take less to stay in Memphis, but probably have move interest elsewhere.
JaM Green - I expect another team to manipulate an offer sheet so that the Grizzlies can't match.

Because of the Chandler Parsons & Mike Conley contracts, the Memphis Grizzlies will likely wait for Ty Lawson to pick up another DUI so he's in their price range.

Meanwhile...in Memphis...

Grizzlies declined Wayne Selden's contract, technically.

Grizzlies sign Selden to 2-year deal.

MC returns because with Tyreke and Chandler Parsons and Brandon Wright, there really isn't enough injury risk you can have on your team...

https://instagr.am/p/BWtN4Lenjy5

I think there are 18 guys under contract/have offers/draft picks

Conley/Chalmers/Harrison/Wade Baldwin/Kobi Simmons
Benny Mac/Tyreke/Selden/Daniels/Morgan
Parsons/Ennis/Rade Z/Dillon Brooks
RFA JaMychal Green/BWright/Jarell Martin/Ivan Rabb/
Gasol/D Davis
