1st slot National TV game. Return of Ja Morant. Divisional rivalry game. Safe to say this is a big one.
4 game winning streak is exactly how we needed to roll into this game. I expect a LOT of energy from Memphis tonight with Ja back – honestly really happy this game is in New Orleans and not Memphis.
Memphis had a game last night but they punted it. Bane and JJJ barely played 25+ minutes so dont expect much rest advantage. Memphis also has a lack of quality bigs so do expect a JV and Zion advantage.
Hyped for this game.
Normally I’d be pretty confident in playing a 6 win team not named the Utah Jazz, but this game is kind of an anomaly because we don’t know what they’ll look like with Ja. I expect Ja to come out with something to prove, but his conditioning will also be pretty far behind. I’ll be interested to see how the Pels match up defensively. I’d put CJ on Ja and just dare him to shoot threes. Then you can have Herb on Bane who is a better all around scorer. Put Zion on JJJ and just park Jonas on their other non-shooter.
We have to destroy temetrius mormon
