What does the public think about this game?
Memphis has found an up-tempo style without Marc Gasol. They’ve won four of their last five games, including beating the Lakers, 112-95 on Friday night. P.J. Hairston scored 21 points to lead the Grizzlies, who is now getting a chance with Courtney Lee. Even Lance Stephenson contributed 14 points off the bench and might be a factor for this team coming from the Clippers. The Suns have now lost 13 straight so a coaching change didn’t exactly change their fortunes.
