Dubs slowed down the scoring and pulled within 4 in the 3rd Quarter but that was it.
Fourth quarter was all Memphis and the Warriors looked old and couldn't match the Grizzlies energy in the final frame. They looked slow and gave plenty of cause for Brooks to yap - but that's OK and his team earned it. For the Warriors turnovers (including four possessions in a row!), reach defense, over reliance on 3s, and slow defensive rotations that left open threes doomed them to play from behind most of the game. If you were hoping, like me, that the team would catch fire again in the play-offs this game should give you pause.
Final score 131-110 Grizzlies without Morant and Adams.
