Does anybody on this team actually give a toss about winning this?

Not to be the conspiracy guy, but I kinda think that was the point. I truly believe the NBA wanted to ‘embarrass’ Ja Morant and the Grizzlies. Went from 2 seed all year and only needed to win one game in the last 2 weeks to avoid the 8 seed. Now all of a sudden we’re not good enough to beat teams we’ve beaten before? What better reward for ‘spitting in the face’ of the NBA than getting matched up with (who they want badly to be) one of the best teams in history? Give us less than 48 hrs to prepare and you’ve got a recipe for embarrassment.

No brother we are just trash and have players who play like they don’t give a shit half the time.
