DAMN this dude represents SC so well...he's humble and respects his coaches and mentors. He will have a legendary career when it's all said and done because he wants to be iconic and he's doing it the right way. He not just hearing but he listens!!
My two favorite teams in the NBA. Wolves get the edge for me cuz I'm a MN native but hard to not root for Memphis cuz of how they play and also cuz Tyus from here too.
@@jboyd3915 I’ve been a Wolves fan all my life even before KG got there. And Memphis since the gritty Conley and Gasol days. Ain’t no fair weather fan.
I can tell you right now, their game plan is going to be to try to take Towns out, Town's better be ready for next game because they're going to try to take him out exactly like the way the Clippers did, so Edwards and Russell are going to have to Star again if we're going to win, I have that sneaking suspicion....
That’s been the game plan for opposing teams all year, ain’t nothing new for KAT the main thing is execution and kat can’t force things just let the reads come to him like he did this game
That gameplan will work if Towns doesn’t make the right pass. Yesterday, on a majority of times they doubled him, he made the pass into open space which led to 4 on 3 and an open lane or shot. KAT adjusted since the Clippers game.
I think Memphis is the better team. Out of all these playoffs games this was the one that I was very excited to watch because these two teams match up well if both bring it. Wolves brought it but Memphis need more out of Jackson and Adams. Ja, Dez and Brooks can hold their own along with Clark. But Memphis needs more out of the BIGS to make shots very tough for KAT. Good win Wolves. Grizzles you all have homework tonight.
Memphis n 7..n I'm a heat fan they got that underdog grind sort reminds me of South beach ⛱ plus my second favorite team when there not playing miami..
@@RIZZGAWD n umm hate make ya nutts little I'm all woman..my man did good job schooling me the game I mean that's all we do go games n watch football n basketball ..I never played a sport n my life my man's was former all American football safety in high school..but yeah he schooled me good on sports..sorry make ya nutts small ..but it's all good what sports do bring people together..
Ja is a good dude. He just has to share the ball more down the stretch and not turn it to hero ball. Too much high flying. He should be concerned about getting a career ending injury. Play smarter bro!
I told people Adams will get exposed. He said he just stand there and the ball comes to him, that's how he get all the rebounds. How that work out for you tonight Adams? I wish I could revisit my statement when I said if he doesn't play Tillman we will lose this series. Adams have to sit. Give Adams minutes to Tillman and Clarke
I said the same exact thing on Twitter, Adams can't play minutes against Minnesota because they're fast and athletic, the opposite to Adams, he is strong and has good game IQ but today he got exposed by almost every single player from Minnesota. Edwards always hunted the matchup against him because it was basically a free bucket. Every single time Clarke entered the game we just played so much better because he is athletic and fast enough to matchup with the Minnesota guards and not getting exposed. I really hope Jenkins learns from this game and change the lineup for the next game. Morant, Bane, Brooks, Clarke and Jaren from the start, Tyus, Melton, Ziaire, Kyle and Tillman from the bench.
@@Diego-wb9mt I've been peeping him all year. The coach is in love with him. He has no trust in Clark or Tillman. I would've put one of them in early on when Adams was being handled. He keeps him in and they just kept putting him on skates
The problem with going with Tillman and Clarke is KAT will kill them on the block. So it’s basically pick your poison with that one but at least they would be faster and more athletic with them out there
@Jacinta Moniz He needs to learn to pass the ball, its not a coincidence his team ball movement got better when he sat. When he sat, the grizzlies got a lead
I think he can get a little better passing out after breaking down the defense .. the way he throw his body in the air, regardless of how many defenders are there … I’m worried he gonna turn into derek rose ,Brandon Roy,dwade and decline early.. he hit the ground hard like 4 times this game..
So I wrote this whole paragraph about ja passing out after breaking down defense … then I heard the end of the interview and he said it … whoa respect he recognizes what he can do to improve team after one game, unlike Westbrook lol 😂
@@YungGroveBoss it’s confusing to me because Ja isn’t an average passer, he’s an elite passer. him forcing things out there yesterday was so uncharacteristic and frankly disappointing. gotta trust your teammates
Different circumstance. Steph was playing with a far worse supporting cast than the Grizzlies last year and the Wolves this year. Ja’s definitely gonna adjust bc he’s incredible, but he has his hands full this series for sure if he doesn’t tweak his playstyle a bit to match what the team needs in this matchup.
Of course Game 1 is a feel out game. I like how Wolves defended, but on offense they relied too much on the three ball. Don´t think they gonna make so many threes again. Easy win for Memphis on Tuesday.
Ironically, I think the Grizzlies best gameplan is to take the 3 ball away bc the Wolves have more than capable shooters. Make them play in the paint where Grizzlies defense excels (albeit JJJ can’t stay out of foul trouble). The problem is is that Memphis perimeter team D is eh. They defend on the ball pretty well but when the Wolves were swinging the ball, Memphis guards looked lost.
Tell me you don't watch basketball. Minnesota is 1st in the NBA with made 3's. Also Minnesota is 1st in the NBA with most points per game. So what are you babbling about?
@@Ben-ho7lp You clownass need to sit down 😄 I watch Basketball since the early 90s and I bet I know more than you will ever know. Just cause you looked up some stats about the T-Wolves doesn't mean you an expert. By the way Minnesota averaged 115.9 and Memphis 115.6 per game, so that's more or less the same. If you had watched Playoff Basketball the past years, you would know the 3ball doesn't fall well every game. So if I'm the Wolves I wouldn't rely too much on it, that's all I said.
Y’all let the city of Memphis down. To get beat by double digits on home court playoff game 1 says a lot I was def expecting it the other way around gawd lee Memphis can’t ever go all the way🫣
I feel ya but I think they will regroup if you go back and watch that game over most of the shots Minnesota hit were wide open like we weren't playing defense at all and the refs calling 50 something foul calls geesh
Memphis is to cocky they talk too much like they have won something in the past ja always running his mouth after every basket he he running his mouth like bro win something first they haven’t even won a playoff series yet lmao hell the Memphis organization as a whole have never won anythin I think they need to humble themselves lol
They can't hang with the wolves. If it wasn't Morant running to the hoop getting fouls they wouldn't have scored 90. This series is going to be watching this guy run to the hoop and the wolves hitting 3' s
Have you watched any basketball prior to this game? He had a bad shooting night. Happens to literally everybody. Ja’s issue always was his shot but, had you watched him this season, you would have seen that he improved immensely.
@@stresmaldonado sounds like Ben Simmons. "One day he'll be able to shoot. You'll see see 😢" "B-B-BUT he's shooting better than last year." He needs to know how to shoot mow, and he can't. Simple as.
Yea, he scored 32pts, so let's? His shooting ability?. That's so lame. I get your new to playoffs, you'll get better. Its game 1 fellows & the playoffs. Have to take one game at a time, game 5 is when things get serious!
I knew Memphis will get bounce even before the regular season ended... They too inexperienced plus they play better without Ja... Now Ja gonna be ball hogging and bricking all series... What a fraud... 🤣
It’s different when you’re the hunted. The expectations just weigh more. I think Memphis will still prevail though. I just hope we get 7 games.
DAMN this dude represents SC so well...he's humble and respects his coaches and mentors. He will have a legendary career when it's all said and done because he wants to be iconic and he's doing it the right way. He not just hearing but he listens!!
Far from humble, easy to be humble after a loss. Hes usually very cocky and arrogant and hasn't accomplished anything in the league

Wolves won cuz they’re the better team and they tired harder it’s that’s simple
He's in trouble 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Morant is a one level scorer, take away the easy layup and he becomes a non factor in the game
thank you for announcing to everyone that you don’t know shit about basketball 👍
The wolves putting Edwards on him changed the whole game. Much like Lebron on Rose.
