Grizzlies Win Four Straight | Grizz Beat On The Go



Grizzlies Win Four Straight | Grizz Beat On The Go

Hey everybody Jarvis cre Michael Wallace this is your holiday Grizz beat update update the Grizzlies are on the road and they’re doing very well but I tell you what Michael these last couple of games there was really something going on in New Orleans and The Grizzlies had it

Cooking in Atlanta and you know you take two and 0 on this road trip any day of the week you definitely take two- 0 on this road trip I mean you started Saturday in Atlanta you set your uh season high with 76 points in the paint

And then you come back to New Orleans with another miraculous historic com back Victory I mean a come back from 13 down in the fourth quarter to beat the Pelicans a week after you came back from 24 down in jaw’s first game back from a 25 game suspension man what what what

What is this team this is a new team now J oh yeah this is definitely a new team that the Grizzlies are have out here speaking of new team John Moran of course back Marcus Smart making his debut last night against the Pelicans here in New Orleans and wow 29 minutes

Comes in off comes in starting uh just four of 10 from the field but the shots that he did make were awesome but the thing is his defense especially down the stretch just incredible I mean five steals this is a guy that came in in the final three minutes of that game against

The Pelicans picked up where Vince Williams Jr who had started the last handful of games almost didn’t want him to come out of the G I didn’t want him to come out I was trying to figure out when I saw the substitution okay who is Taylor going to sit down but credit Mark

Is smart because he called it this was the first game that he’s played in almost five weeks because of the midfoot sprain so you know one day John Morant comes back from his suspension comes out and hits the gamewinner on the offensive end the next time Marcus Smart comes

Back from missing almost 6 weeks and he does it defensively the Grizzlies had six you know you talk about the uh the the the 17 block shots that’s I think that’s a record right on the road on Ro 17 block shots 10 steals 27 stocks that

Had to overcome 18 turnovers but the way this team is playing they can beat you any kind of way offensively defensively what did you see what did you see from this team because again we’ve saw the first 25 games they didn’t play like like this they didn’t they weren’t this

Multiple they weren’t this deep but now we’re seeing a different version of the Grizzlies I tell you what the for the first time since J has come back I saw them kind of revert back to the three-point shooting like it’s like we’re going to the fair and we’re going

To shoot jack up as many threes they had 46 three-point attempts uh with two minutes left and over there way too many but then they finally started going to I called him in in last night’s game The Forgotten man jiren Jackson Jr getting the ball in the post and let trip work

He definitely did work I mean he was the guy that was last to the party offensively he wasn’t having a great game but in the fourth quarter in overtime jiren Jackson Jr knew he had a matchup that he could take advantage of he was aggressive he went to the hole

And he made free throws now it went to overtime because he missed the second end of uh two free throws but at the end of the day jiren Jackson did what he had to had to do and now you’re talking about what you’re seeing from jiren what you’re seeing from Dez what you’re

Seeing from jaw and now you got Marcus back now the bench is restoring itself a little bit and we’re only a couple more days maybe a couple more games away from being even healthier when you talk about Luke Canard you’re talking about Derrick Rose I mean you’re having guys that can

Come back and help this team big time and you asked me earlier about what I saw from this game you know other than shooting a lot of three-pointers in the first half you’re seeing this team now believing that it can win no matter what we saw during no matter where and no

Matter where that’s correct we saw early you know the team got dejected you know with all those guys out in the losing starting to mount up it was not much fun going to FedEx for him and you know going ENT games you got both hands and

One leg time behind your back but now you got your pieces back and it’s starting to make more sense the puzzle pieces fit together when you call 12 and put him back on the court it just makes everything work that much smoother and

And what a what a time to do it this is a holiday season jiren Jackson Jr told us weeks ago that Christmas was going to come early on December 19th when John Morant came back Marcus Smart is back the game after Christmas right he’s the game game after Christmas Luke Canard

Derrick Rose could be on the runway to come back right before as you get head into the new year and now you’re dealing from a full debt now you’re looking at okay let’s look at the standings let’s start to figure out how these next 20

Games can go and where we need to be they beat the Pelicans twice that’s a team that’s firmly in the playoff mix so you know what the grizzly are capable of doing now Jarvis I want us to look at the rest of this trip though because

This trip I mean I don’t know if you can put together a tougher back to back than what the Grizzlies will be facing you know on Thursday uh against the Denver Nuggets you know I mean defending NBA champions who are difficult to be at home and then you got a game right after

That on Friday against I mean obviously a team that’s gotten much better in the Los Angeles Clippers a back to back traveling from Denver to La two teams that are hot two teams that know what they’re doing the Grizzlies will have their hands cut off for him these next

Two yeah going to Denver you know one thing you got to hope that the Grizzlies remember when they were so short-handed early in the season one of the best games they played was against the de Denver Nuggets at FedEx forum I think was it just a two-point defeat it went

Down to the end you had a shot in the air I think they could have won the game if you get that kind of effort now you have the pieces that can actually play they were playing with guys you know that were so far down the bench they

Couldn’t even see sunlight in that game now you got pieces that can get something done they will be on the court and this team I don’t believe they care who they play where they play they have a belief in themselves and this the Memphis Grizzlies that we that everybody

Wanted to see going into this Seas yeah and I I leave it back to what John Mor told me after the game against the pel you talk to John Mor personally I talked to him personally on the like got said this but J said listen man this is about

And I congratulated him on winning Western Conference player of the week let’s let’s make sure we point that out John Mor Grizzlies a 4-0 now with the reigning Western Conference player of the week and Josh 30 game 30 point games in three of the four games that he’s

Been back and Jos said the thing that that Thrills him the most right now is the fact that his teammates are just as happy to have him back and make him feel comfortable as he is coming back to lead them no what I’m saying it could be uncomfortable though because of what

They’ve been through and the injuries and everything there’s he he just feels the joy that he’s his presence is bringing so he wants to bring that to the team every single night man so I’m looking forward to seeing how far the gries can take this I know you are too
