00:00Many people can stay in front of Brandon Williams.
00:04Looking to beat the buzzer.
00:06It's Jaron Jackson Jr.
00:07Gathers himself with a one-bounce dribble for a three,
00:10and it's off target.
00:12Some heavy lifting is what Dallas will need in the second half.
00:16We've reached halftime at Memphis at FedEx Forum
00:18in this NBA Cup group stage game,
00:21and point differential, remember, is a big part of that,
00:24and there's a bad differential right now
00:25with Dallas down by 23.
00:30Rooms to go.
00:31By the piece, save a little.
00:33By the room, save a lot.
00:35By your North Texas Chevy dealers.
00:38And by Grey Goose, make time wait.
00:45We are back in Memphis with our Rooms to Go recap.
00:48The Mavs have a steep hill to climb here.
00:50Assistant coach Josh Brokamer told me in order to do that,
00:53but defensively there has got to be a lot more communication
00:56and a lot more physicality.
00:58Really encourage the players at halftime.
01:00To be more physical, put more pressure on them.
01:02Offensively, they are getting to the paint.
01:04They are kicking it out.
01:06They are just not making shots, guys.
01:07We've heard them say this.
01:09They're hoping that they will start to fall
01:10because they like the looks they're getting.
01:12But that was it in a nutshell from Brokhammer.
01:14Yeah, the points in the paint are good for Dallas in the first half.
01:17They went 16 of 23 in the paint for 32 paint points,
01:20but when they kicked it out, the three-point shooting has been bad.
01:24Four of 17.
01:26And then you combine that with the Grizzlies going 10 of 21 on threes in the first half,
01:30and you've got to tighten that up defensively.
01:32Yeah, I just talked to you about that.
01:34That three-pointers are the difference.
01:36You can take them, but the team that makes them,
01:39the team that's going to be in position to be successful.
01:42And I agree with what the assistant coach said.
01:46You've got to be more physical against this team.
01:49Make them feel you a little better.
01:50Memphis settled into a comfort zone early in the game.
01:56Hadn't looked back.
01:57Their floor general, Ja Moran,
01:59had a first-half double-double of 12 points and 10 assists.
02:03Second double-double of the year for Moran.
02:06There's a baseline jumper by Contavious Caldwell-Poke.
02:09He's been outstanding this evening.
02:12And there's a steal by Moran and a pass by D'Lo,
02:20and Moran will have an easy score.
02:24And it's the biggest Grizzlies lead of the game at 27 points.
02:35You know, I always, as part of prep,
02:37like to look at trends as Washington misses,
02:40and I'm talking about player trends.
02:41You know, the thing about this league,
02:45as we've talked about many times before,
02:47is that you've got to be able to shake off bad games.
02:51Moran misses a three.
02:52Even if you've been struggling with your shot,
02:54you've still got to be, if that's your role,
02:55like a guy like Contavious Caldwell-Poke
02:57is where I'm going with this, as Cooper Flagg lays it in.
03:00And, again, I want to reiterate this.
03:03I brought it up for the first half.
03:05Caldwell-Poke is 4-for-25 on shots in his last three games.
03:08Right.
03:09And to your point, Harp,
03:10he obviously has been in the lab
03:12because he's gone 5-for-6 the last,
03:14or in this game tonight.
03:16Well, he's been in the lab,
03:17but he's also a veteran
03:20and has a very short memory.
03:22Yes, which you have to have,
03:23and he's a veteran with championship rings,
03:25two of them.
03:25Jalen Wells, the offensive rebound,
03:30and a lead,
03:31so what does a long two-point make for Moran's?
03:38Up to 16 points now for Jaw.
03:42Five Grizzlies in double figures.
03:45Here's a turnaround shot by Washington,
03:47and it does everything but go in.
03:48Off the glass, around the rim, and out.
03:50Ultimately, though, on the rebound,
03:52the foul was called on Jock Landale.
04:01Caleb Martin is going in.
04:03Daniel Gafford is going out.
04:04Two points.
04:07Gafford had 15 points and eight rebounds,
04:09two blocks as well on Wednesday.
04:12Had a 14-point game on Monday in Houston.
04:16Christie with the three that's missed,
04:18and Jaron Jackson Jr. with the rebound,
04:20and then the lost ball by Moran,
04:22a save in,
04:23and it's a backcourt violation.
04:25Backcourt violation.
04:30Turnover for Memphis.
04:31Here's the play.
04:42That didn't look like a backcourt violation.
04:45They miss him sometimes, you know that.
04:48I do.
04:48I do.
04:49That's very true.
04:51Max Christie with it.
04:52A three-pointer over Landale is good.
04:55Put some plays in for Christie.
05:0215 points tonight.
05:03Leading score in the game for the Mavs.
05:05Inefficient 15.
05:07Take a look at him.
05:08Triple threat position.
05:10Backs the defense off.
05:12Pulls the trigger.
05:13And knocks it in.
05:17Little jab step.
05:18And then a rise and fire.
05:22See the number for Max Christie on the screen,
05:25the 15 points.
05:27In his first two seasons in the NBA,
05:29he never had a game of 15 or more points.
05:33And then last year,
05:35scored 15 or more 17 times.
05:39And he's now done it three times this season.
05:41Landale tipped in a missed shot by Moran.
05:47And now you've got a foul called on Max Christie.
05:50Trying to fight over the top.
05:54Hopefully his energy becomes contagious.
05:57Oh, ball quickly into Landale.
06:02I say it often.
06:04In the NBA, in this league,
06:05I don't know what goes on overseas
06:07in different places I've never played over there.
06:09Sure.
06:10But you can't
06:11be getting ready to play basketball in this league.
06:15Correct.
06:15You have to be ready.
06:16And I know I've said it before,
06:18but it's really important,
06:21Jason going to his bench a little bit,
06:24that you don't fall prey to where you are record-wise
06:27in the league.
06:29You know, you can ignore your record,
06:31get one win,
06:32and things turn around for you.
06:34So my point is that you've got to fight your way
06:36out of a situation like the Mavericks in right now
06:39where nothing seems to be going right for him.
06:43Nobody's going to fight
06:44your way out of it for you.
06:46No.
06:46Yeah.
06:47It's all on your shoulders to do it.
06:49Like I said, maybe overseas somewhere.
06:51Got a trip here as Brandon Williams goes down.
06:54The Grizzlies are not happy about this call.
06:57The call went against Ja Morant.
06:59There were a lot of players who were upset about it.
07:02The player who is
07:04in now worst foul trouble
07:06is Morant at four.
07:07A couple of fouls for Morant tonight have been
07:16because of the defensive pressure
07:19that Brandon Williams has applied.
07:22going to exchange here to Marshall.
07:28And it's hard-noted.
07:29Mavericks go to their bench.
07:30Hardy and Williams just went in.
07:32Williams got the fourth foul there on Morant.
07:35Here's an end of the shot clock situation.
07:37It's late.
07:37Mavs turned it over
07:42for the ninth time in the game.
07:49Morant in the paint shorts.
07:52Ball's tipped out to Caldwell Pope.
07:54So an offensive rebound
07:56leads to Jalen Wells
07:58putting up a three.
07:59And Dallas closes off the boards that time.
08:04Mavs have had
08:05a big guy injury certainly a part of it.
08:07They've had a rough time on the
08:08boards this year.
08:10Last in the NBA in a rebounding margin
08:12getting outboarded by an average of seven per game.
08:16And here's an attack
08:18and score by Morant
08:18with a foul too.
08:21With 8-0-1 left in the third quarter.
08:24Memphis is up by 30.
08:28It's just an attack mode.
08:29Doing what Ja does.
08:31Welles and Jackson have gone out.
08:37Cedric Coward and Santi Aldama have gone in.
08:41And the Mavericks fortunes have not changed here
08:44in the first four minutes of the third quarter.
08:46Even with Morant picking up
08:50three fouls in the second quarter.
08:53A fourth foul here in the third quarter.
08:56Morant has not been deterred by that
08:58and deterred by his
08:59recent struggles
09:01and the feelings about
09:03that he has about
09:05what his state of mind is
09:07with regard to the game right now.
09:09There's been some joy
09:10back in his game tonight.
09:11Yeah, he just came back
09:12and is playing his game.
09:14Got into a good rhythm
09:15early.
09:19Against the Dallas zone
09:21you can see they're trying to get Landale
09:22matched up and seal
09:23a smaller defender inside.
09:25But they focus so much on that
09:27they end up turning the ball over
09:29and then Hardy brings it up the floor
09:31and a foul's called on Memphis.
09:33On Contabious Caldwell-Pope.
09:38Memphis committing
09:42their third team foul
09:44of this third quarter
09:46and in the act of shooting
09:48it sends Jaden Hardy
09:50to the free throw line.
09:53They're going to challenge this.
09:57Memphis uses their coaches' challenge
09:59with 727 left in the third quarter.

10:08Must be 21 or older
10:09to participate.
10:11All right, Mark.
10:11What was the call?
10:12The call was that the
10:14foul will remain in place.
10:17It is an unsuccessful
10:18coach's challenge
10:19for the Memphis Grizzlies.
10:21The foul called on
10:22Contabious Caldwell-Pope
10:23on the floor stands.
10:25All I can see is that
10:27he just wasn't in position
10:30to draw the call.
10:32Yep.
10:32To get the call.
10:33Looks like Jaden
10:34was losing the ball somewhat,
10:37but the defense still not set
10:39in spite of.
10:41Since Hardy to the free throw line.
10:45Well, that's one thing
10:46that has gone wrong
10:47for Caldwell-Pope tonight
10:49on a night
10:50when very little
10:51has gone wrong for him.
10:53He has 12 points
10:55on five of six shooting.
10:56But you brought up
10:57an excellent point
10:58just playing tonight
11:00like a veteran player
11:01who knows that his job
11:03is to shoot,
11:05win, open, and defend.
11:06And has come out tonight
11:08and put his
11:08three-game struggles
11:10of 425
11:11in the last three games.
11:12He's made it,
11:13as we like to say,
11:14a distant memory.
11:14Absolutely.
11:16And, you know,
11:17just love him.
11:20Some guys,
11:20you forget how to shoot
11:21sometimes.
11:22You just say,
11:22I don't know about
11:24how to be shot.
11:24That would really be bad.
11:27I forgot how to shoot.
11:29I'll rephrase it.
11:31Oh, he's a nice finish.
11:32You forget how to make shots.
11:33How about that?
11:35That's worse.
11:39Well, another easy basket
11:41surrendered inside.
11:42Here's Marshall
11:43missing on a three.
11:44Memphis' bench,
11:48the best-scoring bench
11:49in the league.
11:50They've been playing
11:50very well tonight.
11:51A lot of that is
11:52Aldama and Coward
11:54who have the last two
11:55baskets in succession
11:56for Memphis
11:57and both of them
11:58in the paint.
11:59Bench punts
12:00being dominated
12:01by Memphis.
12:02Yes.
12:03And the scoreboard
12:04being dominated
12:05by Memphis tonight
12:06as Cooper Flagg
12:07misses inside.
12:08Landale
12:08is there for the rebound.
12:11Talk about Caldwell-Pope,
12:13how long has he been around?
12:14This is season 13
12:16in the NBA
12:16for him
12:17from Georgia.
12:21Jock Landale
12:22is fouled
12:23by Brandon Williams.
12:26You know,
12:27and all of this happens
12:28against the backdrop
12:29again of
12:30Memphis having
12:32lost four straight.
12:33Morant's been suspended
12:34for a game
12:35recently.
12:36And they have played
12:38all year long.
12:40They have not seen
12:41pre-agent acquisition
12:43Ty Jerome
12:43from the offseason
12:45who was very,
12:45very good,
12:46of course,
12:46for an outstanding
12:47Cavaliers team
12:47last year.
12:49Scotty Pippen Jr.
12:50is out.
12:51Ty Jerome,
12:52by the way,
12:52calf strain.
12:53Scotty Pippen Jr.
12:55Big toe surgery.
12:57And that's a notable loss.
12:59Big toe on his left foot.
13:01Brandon Clark
13:01hasn't played this year.
13:03Right knee surgery recovery.
13:05And Zach Eady
13:05hasn't played this year.
13:06Left ankle surgery recovery.
13:08Now he has started
13:09to practice
13:10with their G League team,
13:11the Memphis Hustle.
13:12So it seems that
13:13Eady's return
13:14is not very far away.
13:16They can use him.
13:17Yes.
13:18But Landale has
13:19very capably
13:20held down the board
13:21as the starting center.
13:22Nice attack that time.
13:25Landale,
13:25who was just
13:26on the free throw line,
13:27is averaging 11 points
13:28and 5 rebounds a game.
13:30And he's been
13:31even better lately.
13:3213 and a half points
13:33a game
13:33on the last four.
13:35And he's doing
13:36things like that.
13:37He's shooting 66%
13:38for the floor.
13:399 of 11 on threes.
13:40Yeah,
13:40took advantage
13:41of that nice.
13:43Landale.
13:44He plays hard.
13:46And he's played
13:47a lot of minutes.
13:50Great effort
13:50that time
13:51by Morant.
13:53Whole bench is up.
13:55Saluting the effort.
14:03Well,
14:04we have said it many times.
14:06You brought it up.
14:07One of my favorite
14:07sayings of yours
14:09over the years.
14:09And I'm sorry.
14:11I have to apologize
14:12because I do go out
14:13and then I do
14:13these other soccer games
14:14and football games
14:15and I steal your stuff
14:16and use it for those sports.
14:18You know,
14:19everybody uses everybody.
14:20I told you that
14:21a long time ago.
14:22But you can't
14:23be getting ready.
14:24Oh,
14:24big block by Cissé.
14:25He was ready
14:26to challenge
14:27that Jalen Wells shot
14:28as Cissé
14:29then runs the floor.
14:30And when the dog
14:31guards the yard,
14:32you've got to
14:32throw him a bone.
14:34That's the kind
14:34of energy you need
14:35right now
14:36when you're down
14:3625 plus points.
14:38You've got to
14:39go for it.
14:40And there's
14:43a tough shot
14:43made by
14:44Jaron Jackson Jr.
14:46On a two-way contract,
14:48Moussa Cissé
14:49tonight appearing
14:50in his fifth game
14:52of the season.
14:52He's had
14:53rotation of minutes
14:55in each of the last
14:55two games.
14:58Hit one.
14:59Marshall.
15:00He needs one.
15:01It's off target.
15:02It's off target.
15:02Under five left
15:14in the third quarter.
15:15And again,
15:16remember that
15:17in this cup group stage,
15:19point differential
15:19is a factor.
15:21And it is not good
15:23from the Mavs side.
15:24And Memphis obviously
15:25getting a big lift
15:26tonight.
15:26Tonight's Whataburger
15:27what a play.
15:29And it goes to
15:29Moussa Cissé
15:30for the block
15:30on one end
15:31and the alley-oop
15:32finish on the other.
15:32That's your energy
15:34right there for Cissé.
15:38Ball in to Jackson.
15:39Got to the body
15:40of the defender
15:41and then spin cycle
15:42off the defender
15:43to score.
15:44Things are coming
15:44a little bit too easy
15:45now
15:46for the Grizzlies.
15:49Well,
15:49now they're adding
15:50a lot of paint baskets
15:51here in the third quarter
15:53to go with
15:53the threes.
15:54Yeah,
15:54the plethora of threes
15:55that they had
15:56in the first half.
15:57They made ten
15:57in the first half alone.
15:59Williams,
15:59nice bounce.
16:00like that attack
16:02aggressive
16:02regardless of
16:06to what
16:07the score is.
16:09You got to continue
16:09to go
16:10and Brandon
16:11Brandon is one
16:12of those guys.
16:13He knows one speed
16:15and that's all out.
16:19Looking for a three-point
16:20play here with
16:21423 left in the third.
16:23Wim Hart is going to get
16:24to run.
16:27Well,
16:28this is the front end
16:28of a back-to-back
16:29for Dallas.
16:30Yes.
16:30And it's a difficult
16:31back-to-back
16:32from a standpoint
16:33of going east,
16:34losing an hour.
16:36You drive a long way
16:37in from the airport
16:38into D.C.
16:39and so it's going
16:41to be a late night
16:42for the Mavs.
16:43Now,
16:43Washington is playing
16:44tonight as well.
16:46They have a home game
16:47with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
16:49Both teams will be
16:50on the back-to-back.
16:51Obviously,
16:52it's just a big travel
16:53situation
16:54for the Mavs.
16:55And Washington
16:59got belted
17:00by the Cavaliers
17:01tonight.
17:02The final margin
17:03of that game
17:04is pretty close
17:05to what the current
17:06margin of this game
17:07is.
17:08The Wizards
17:08lost by 34
17:09in their game
17:11with the Cavaliers.
17:12The Mavs,
17:13I'm sad to report,
17:14are down by 32
17:15right now
17:16in the third.
17:18This is Marshall
17:19inside.
17:21Hart mentioned
17:22Ryan Nembhard
17:22is in the game.
17:23Nembhard
17:24was the first guard
17:25off the bench
17:25in the opening
17:27game of the season.
17:28Had eight points
17:28and five assists
17:29in 16 minutes.
17:31But he has
17:32been out of the rotation,
17:33played a little bit
17:34in that Washington game,
17:35the second game
17:36of the year.
17:37Cissé going down
17:37the lane
17:38and will head
17:38to the free throw line.
17:43353 to go
17:44in the third quarter.
17:45Cissé,
17:45who played
17:46collegiately twice
17:47his first year
17:48of college
17:49and his last year
17:50of five years
17:50in college
17:51at the University
17:51of Memphis
17:52is on the line.
17:53And let's get more
17:53from Leslie.
17:54Yeah, exactly.
17:54Leslie has friends
17:55here tonight
17:56at the game.
17:56A couple of teachers
17:57actually said
17:58one of them
17:58is going to bring
17:59him his diploma
18:00because he hadn't
18:01received it yet.
18:02It's pretty cool
18:02that they played
18:03their home games here.
18:04Yes.
18:04So obviously
18:05he's very comfortable
18:06out there
18:07even though the court
18:07looks a little bit
18:08different tonight.
18:09He played
18:10high school basketball
18:11in Memphis as well.
18:14When Cissé
18:15moved from Guinea,
18:17was born there,
18:19grew up there
18:20and then moved over
18:20to the States
18:21to play high school
18:22basketball.
18:23The third
18:23of the three
18:24high schools
18:24he played at
18:25was here in Memphis.
18:27All I know
18:27is that he plays
18:28like a hungry guy
18:29and ultimately
18:32that'll get you
18:32on the floor.
18:34First year
18:34at Memphis,
18:35he was the
18:35American Athletic
18:36Conference
18:36freshman of the year
18:37and then as many
18:40players do,
18:41they hit the portal,
18:42went to Oklahoma
18:43State for two years,
18:44Ole Miss for a year
18:45and then back to
18:46Memphis for his
18:48fifth and final
18:49season of eligibility.
18:53Foul was called
18:53on the Grizzlies
18:54which will lead
18:55to a trip to the line
18:56for Marshall.
18:58Cedric Coward
18:59is called
18:59for his second foul.
19:00TXU Energy
19:11Ultimate Season Pass.
19:1250% off
19:13during peak winter
19:14and summer
19:14plus more months
19:15of savings.
19:21Still waiting
19:22for the big
19:23breakout game
19:23of the season
19:24offensively
19:25for Marshall.
19:26His season high
19:26is 12.
19:28Had a nice
19:29assist game
19:29to go with
19:30seven points.
19:31He had a season high
19:32tying five dimes
19:33against the Pelicans
19:34on Wednesday.
19:35The player
19:36who averaged
19:3613 a game
19:37last year,
19:3818 a game
19:39in the last
19:3920 games
19:40of the season
19:41including
19:42a big game
19:43late in the season
19:44against the
19:44Memphis Grizzlies.
19:45He's had some moments
19:47there's no doubt
19:47about it.
19:49Seven points
19:50per game this year
19:50for Marshall.
19:51Three and a half
19:51boards to assist
19:53in 23 minutes a game.
19:55Klay Thompson
19:55way off.
19:56Marshall tipped it out.
19:57Hardy has it.
19:58Puts it up.
19:58Hits it.
19:59Three-pointer.
20:08Important minutes
20:09for guys like
20:10Hardy who have
20:11been,
20:13he's been in
20:13and out of the
20:14rotation
20:14when he played
20:15on Wednesday
20:16didn't make any
20:16shots in the
20:1710 minutes
20:17that he played.
20:21And look,
20:22let's face it,
20:23the Mavericks
20:23are looking for
20:24answers on the
20:25offensive end
20:26of the floor.
20:26From different
20:27players.
20:27Marshall in the
20:30paint with the
20:31basket as we
20:31go under two
20:32and a half
20:32to play in
20:33the third
20:33quarter.
20:34Try to cut
20:35into this
20:35lead before
20:36the fourth
20:38quarter.
20:40Now Dama's
20:41had a really
20:41good night
20:42off the bench
20:43but as he
20:44slings that
20:44ball out of
20:45the post
20:45it's stolen
20:46by Hardy.
20:48Hardy leads
20:48it for Thompson
20:49way upstairs
20:50and another
20:50alley-oop
20:50finish for
20:51Cissé.
20:53Athleticism
20:54comes into
20:55play there.
20:57Well,
20:57as you said
20:58earlier,
20:58playing like
20:59a hungry
20:59guy.
21:01Moussa
21:01Cissé,
21:02NBA game
21:03number five
21:04and way
21:05upstairs
21:06to catch
21:07and finish.
21:10NBA Cup
21:11group stage
21:12game,
21:12the first one
21:13for Dallas
21:13has it gone
21:14well for them
21:14tonight in
21:15Memphis at FedEx
21:16for them
21:16down 101-75.
21:18We bring you
21:18the Baylor
21:19Scott and White
21:20health pulse
21:20check and this
21:22is what's
21:22happened in the
21:23game tonight.
21:23The Grizzlies
21:23have shot 56%.
21:25They've gone
21:26to the free throw
21:26line more than
21:27Dallas.
21:28They've had a lot
21:28of opportunities
21:29inside.
21:30The Mavericks
21:30have a good
21:31overall shooting
21:32percentage but
21:32look at the
21:33gulf in three-point
21:34shooting in this
21:35game.
21:36I'll continue
21:37to say that's
21:37been the
21:38difference in
21:38this game.
21:40Memphis'
21:40ability to make
21:41their threes
21:42have taken
21:44quite a few
21:44but
21:44haven't found
21:47a way to
21:47get them
21:47to go.
21:52Memphis started
21:52the game
21:5310 of 20.
21:54They've missed
21:54their last
21:55four threes
21:55but made
21:5610 of 20
21:57prior to
21:58their last
21:59shot attempt
22:00of the
22:01second quarter.
22:03And here
22:03in the third
22:03quarter it's
22:04been going
22:05inside to
22:06score or
22:07going to
22:07the free
22:08throw line.
22:09Dallas is
22:10on a 13-4
22:11run over
22:12the last
22:12two minutes,
22:13two and a
22:14half minutes
22:14or so.
22:15Yeah,
22:15called a
22:15mismatch
22:16that time.
22:18Now it's
22:19defense.
22:23Dallas has
22:24gone over
22:24the limit
22:24here with
22:25five fouls
22:26in the
22:26third quarter.
22:27Lindell's
22:27going to
22:28shoot two.
22:34Vandale
22:35is one
22:35of six
22:35players
22:36in double
22:36figures
22:36tonight
22:37for the
22:37Grizzlies.
22:39They've
22:40put the
22:40102 points
22:42on the
22:42board
22:42here late
22:43in the
22:43third quarter
22:44on the
22:45scoreboard
22:45with balance.
22:46It hasn't
22:47been one
22:47individual
22:48who's doing
22:48a ton of
22:49scoring,
22:50but as
22:52Coward comes
22:52away with
22:53the rebound,
22:55Morant certainly
22:55created a lot
22:56of points because
22:57he's got 11
22:58assists to go
22:58with 19 points.
22:59This is the
23:00best he's
23:01played in
23:01I would
23:02say all
23:03year.
23:03Yes,
23:03I would
23:03agree.
23:04Absolutely.
23:05He's had
23:06some bigger
23:06scoring games,
23:07but the
23:08floor game
23:08tonight has
23:09been very
23:10good for
23:10Morant as
23:10Nimhard drives
23:12and draws a
23:13foul as he
23:13finishes.
23:15Trying to
23:15make a
23:17little move
23:17here.
23:18He has
23:23a chance
23:23for a
23:24three-point
23:24play with
23:24127 left
23:26in the
23:26third and
23:26the drive
23:27around
23:27Cam
23:27Spencer.
23:29He's a
23:30pure point
23:30guard.
23:30That's for
23:31sure.
23:31Knows when to
23:32go,
23:32when to
23:32slow.
23:33And just
23:36a little
23:36crafty
23:37young man.
23:38Led
23:38Division
23:381
23:38basketball
23:39in
23:39assists
23:39last
23:40year
23:40at
23:40Gonzaga.
23:41Averaging
23:42almost 10
23:43per game.
23:46That
23:47passed by
23:47Morant off
23:48Landale's
23:48hand and
23:49out of
23:49bounds.
23:51It's been
23:52a low
23:52turnover
23:52game
23:52tonight
23:53for
23:53Memphis.
23:54That
23:55is just
23:55their
23:55night.
24:01Memphis
24:01plus
24:02nine
24:02on the
24:03boards
24:03tonight.
24:05Here's
24:05Hardy
24:05at three
24:06from the
24:06corner.
24:07And way
24:08off it's
24:08Cissé
24:09with an
24:09offensive
24:09rebound.
24:10And he
24:11looks for
24:11Christie here.
24:13Max
24:13gathered in
24:13the tough
24:14pass and
24:14that one
24:15is on
24:15the money
24:15for
24:16Hardy.
24:18You know
24:18teams come
24:19back sometimes
24:20you know.
24:21It has
24:22been known
24:23to happen.
24:24It would
24:24be
24:25historic
24:26levels if
24:27Dallas
24:28were to
24:28do something
24:30like that
24:30tonight.
24:31But
24:31they certainly
24:32have played
24:33a lot
24:33better
24:34here in
24:34the last
24:34four or
24:35five minutes
24:35of the
24:35third
24:35quarter.
24:38Here
24:38is
24:39Morant.
24:40And that
24:40one is
24:41no good.
24:42And Dallas
24:42with the
24:43rebound and
24:43they look
24:43to run.
24:44Conchar
24:44tries to
24:45poke it
24:45away.
24:46Hardy
24:47just made
24:47a three
24:48from the
24:48wing.
24:48This
24:48one from
24:49the
24:49corner
24:49is
24:49no
24:50good.
24:50Cissé
24:50battling.
24:51Coward
24:51has it.
24:52And we're
24:52in the
24:52last
24:5320
24:53seconds.
24:53Shot
24:53clock
24:54has
24:54gone
24:54off.
24:54Steele
24:59Klay
24:59Thompson.
25:01Morant
25:01tried to
25:01force the
25:02issue
25:02inside.
25:03Up
25:03ahead to
25:03Hardy.
25:04And he
25:04lost it.
25:07Had a
25:08chance
25:08to cut
25:10it to
25:1020.
25:12And a bit
25:13overzealous
25:13on the pass
25:14and it
25:15ends up
25:15out of
25:15bounds.

26:42really well
26:43tonight.
26:43Scoring well
26:44is kind of
26:44dried up
26:45for him
26:46but has it
26:48deterred at
26:48Memphis from
26:49maintaining a
26:50healthy advantage
26:51and he has
26:51built it up
26:52to 35 as I
26:53mentioned in
26:54the third
26:54quarter.
26:55They get a
26:55Cam Spencer
26:56three right
26:56now.
26:58Yeah,

27:04first half too.
27:05He
27:08shot it
27:08efficiently

27:11strong
27:12offensive rebound
27:13there's

27:15He's
27:15trying to
27:15protect
27:16the ball
27:16and finally
27:18lost it.
27:20Not
27:20because of
27:21the effort.
27:26Cisse is
27:26on a
27:27two-way
27:27contract.
27:28He
27:28came to
27:28camp
27:29on
27:29an
27:30exhibit
27:3010
27:31contract.
27:32His
27:32play
27:32in
27:32preseason
27:33earned
27:34himself
27:34the
27:35open
27:35two-way
27:36spot.
27:36The
27:36remaining
27:36open
27:37two-way
27:37spot
27:37that
27:38the
27:38Mariners
27:38had
27:38having
27:39already
27:40signed
27:40Ryan
27:40Nimhard
27:41and
27:41Miles
27:41Kelly
27:42to
27:42two-way
27:42contracts
27:42in the
27:43offseason.
27:48Missed
27:48earlier that
27:49Musa is
27:50from
27:50Guinea
27:51as he
27:52just
27:52scores
27:52and
27:52draws
27:53a
27:53foul
27:53hits
27:53the
27:54deck
27:54hard.
27:57And
27:57there
27:57may be
27:58a
27:58replay.
27:59Yeah.
27:59Just
27:59see.
28:02If it
28:02airs on
28:03the side
28:03of a
28:04flagrant.
28:06Morant's
28:07fifth foul
28:08of the
28:08game.
28:15So there
28:15will be
28:16a review
28:16for a
28:16potential
28:17flagrant
28:17foul
28:18here.
28:21That
28:22hasn't
28:22been announced
28:22in the
28:23arena
28:23but you
28:24would
28:24surmise
28:24that's
28:24the only
28:25thing
28:25you
28:25could
28:25be
28:25looking
28:25at
28:26here.
28:26See if
28:31this
28:31meets
28:32the
28:32flagrant
28:33foul.
28:33Let's do it
28:34that time.
28:37That would
28:38surprise me
28:39if it were
28:40a
28:40flagrant
28:40foul.
28:41Put it
28:41that way.
28:43I mean
28:43obviously
28:43you had a
28:44player in a
28:44vulnerable
28:45position
28:45being hit
28:47in the
28:47body.
28:47but there's
28:50he says
28:50so strong
28:51he thought
28:53it was
28:53a mat
28:53up under
28:54he didn't
28:54he didn't
28:57feel
28:57it
28:57he was
28:59too busy
28:59dunking.
29:00He was
29:01one of
29:03three NBA
29:04players
29:05born in
29:06the West
29:07African
29:07nation
29:08of
29:08Guinea
29:09Sekou
29:10Dumbuya
29:11who you may
29:11remember as a
29:12first round draft
29:13pick of the
29:13Detroit Pistons a
29:14few years ago
29:15and
29:16Mamadi Diakite
29:17who won a
29:18national championship
29:19at Virginia
29:20before playing a few
29:22games in the league
29:23with the
29:24Bucks
29:25and Thunder
29:26and Cavs
29:27and Spurs
29:27and Knicks
29:28the
29:30defender does not make
29:31it play on the ball
29:32and makes illegal
29:34contact on a defensive
29:35player.
29:36We will upgrade this to a
29:36flagrant one.
29:38He will have two to make
29:38one and then it will
29:40place the ball side out
29:41with 24 on the shot clock
29:4210 39 on the game clock.
29:44I'm not doing very well
29:45on my review guesses.
29:47That's yeah.
29:48That's disturbing to me
29:49too because normally
29:50normally you have it all
29:53right.
29:54Well look
29:55and I joined in
29:56I joined you on that one.
29:57Cissé was in a
29:58defenseless position
30:00and
30:00just the
30:02the amount of
30:02contact
30:03I expected
30:05a different call
30:06out of that.
30:10But Cissé will
30:11as stated a moment ago
30:12by referee
30:13Sean Wright
30:14you can't
30:15make four points
30:17on a made two point
30:18you can't have a four point
30:19play on a made two point
30:20basket.
30:22So that's why
30:22it's going to be
30:23the two to make one
30:24so he'll still have
30:25another free throw
30:26opportunity here.
30:27And then the Mavs
30:29get it on the front.
30:30Cissé in his time
30:31in college
30:32between the three places
30:33that he played
30:34Memphis, Old Miss
30:35and Oklahoma State
30:36he struggled with
30:37free throws
30:3844% was his
30:40collegiate number
30:41he did have the two
30:43to make one
30:44and hit the second
30:45yeah that's good
30:46rotation on the shot
30:47I just like stories
30:50like that
30:51you know
30:52where guys
30:53work and work
30:54and never give up
30:55here is

31:07pass by Clay Thompson

48:44well I just looked down on the floor and saw Morant looking back at a couple of guys who are going to check into the game three guys you're going to check into the game and saw him smile and obviously he had talked earlier this week about having lost his joy
48:58always find it yes when you've lost it yes when you've lost it that doesn't mean it's irretrievably lost as Marshall with the burst of the basket
49:17was a

49:47there you go second sevens Javon small goes in along with PJ Hall and our buddy
49:55Olivier Mexels prosper in a Ross and roster maneuvers GG Jackson goes in as
50:02well in roster maneuvers this summer prosper was a stretch and wave player by
50:08Dallas after two years with the Mavericks and then he signed a two-way
50:11contract with the Memphis Grizzlies Omax has played in seven games now this
50:18season he's averaged eight minutes a game
50:22obviously that number will go down for him tonight but Omax trying to carve out a
50:28new path in his career the native of Montreal and getting an opportunity to
50:32develop with the group here in Memphis and obviously a super nice guy and love
50:40getting to know him a little bit in the two years he was with Dallas and hoping
50:43for the best for him GG Jackson will shoot it at the buzzer and that's the end of
50:47the night it's a 118-104 win for the Grizzlies over the Mavs well the Grizzlies three-point shooting was the difference in this contest they were down and out you have to remember that so they were hungry as a unit and found a way to get out the snide
51:03they end their four-game losing streak and they put Dallas in a four-game losing streak with what transpired tonight tomorrow the Mavericks play the Wizards game time at six Mavs center court starts us at 530 for Derek Harper Leslie McCaslin and our whole crew in Memphis Tennessee I'm Mark
