Grizzlies have played with a lot of confidence. Anything less than our best effort will be disappointing.
Use that Laker win to motivate!
Hoping JB is good to go.
Marcus Smart guarding Morant?
Ja would murder Smart tbh, I hope Jaylen can play.
What would you think that?
Morant murders pretty much everybody lately, but I expect the comment is based on some of the quicker guards being able to get by Smart. Smart is more exceptional in his strength than his lateral movement.
That said, I think "murder" is too strong a word, and especially in crunch time. Smart's too crafty; he watches a guy, learns his tendencies, picks his spots. So I don't think Smart would go all out on Ja all game long, but if we need a cobra strike at the end of a close game, in Marcus I trust. I actually also think Kemba could do better on the rookie than people expect.
