The Memphis Grizzlies need a wing and a prayer after loss to Miami Heat



The now 1-7 Memphis Grizzlies saw an undrafted combo forward in Haywood Highsmith outplay two 1st round picks, and a third who didn’t even make the rotation for a banged up Memphis roster, in their home loss to the Miami Heat. While the struggles of Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart offensively didn’t help, it was the absence of any consistent wing contribution that made this defeat all the more sour. host Joe Mullinax ponders this difficult situation and gives Jaren Jackson Jr. some flowers for his showing against Bam Adebayo on this episode of Locked on Grizzlies!

  1. That (New Offense) looks like 1 play ran continuously. Maybe we don't have the right peices to the puzzle to make it look right yet. Either way that game was as close to a Rock Em Sock Em Robot game as I could see. Dam near a 3 hour foul fest!

  2. I hate to feel like a whiner, but does it seem like we don’t get calls like any other team we play?

    It’s totally possible I am just so biased I’m not seeing clearly. And I’m not saying we would have won, nothing like that, but I definitely feel like there is a noticeable difference in foul thresholds. I’m talking most games.

    Again, I think we did a lot of things horribly. But I swear I almost always notice a discernible difference in the threshold of calls. Every play has a foul in the nba, I’m talking about a difference of the threshold.

  3. It’s like the other players beside Bismack, Smart , Bane and Triple J we’re watching the ball, no rebounds beside Bis and JJJ. It’s like they forgot fundamental basketball. One game I get, but they have been playing like this since the season started. It’s like they don’t know how to make things happen. They refuse to shoot mid range shots, it’s like the goal is 3 or drive. They missed layups etc.

    Joe is like they forgot how to score, make plays and defend the 3. Why are we shooting more threes? We’re not hitting them!!!

  4. Kelly Oubre was sitting out there for so long this summer signed for the minimum now starting for Philly Grizz could have brought him in and they would have had a starting sf FO needs to stop pretending to be so smart
