As far as I know, there’s no Tyreke. Brooks will probably look to have a big game on home soil.

Watching the end of the Warriors/Nuggets game and Jokic is getting the JV treatment - guards dribbling around the perimeter and not getting the ball inside to Jokic where he has an an obvious advantage. Nuggets still win

As games go this one is pretty mundane. For me as a fan though I'm really frustrated with the Raps following dominant performances with clunkers. If they can come out and control Memphis from the opening tip on it will make me sleep better before Tuesday. It would be nice to give the starters (especially Kyle and Serge) some extra rest but really I just want to see the new system employed for 48 minutes, 3 pointers falling at a 36%+ clip and Norm having another solid game. Not too much to ask for.

DeMar DeRozan scored 26 points along with 7 rebounds and 6 assists, Serge Ibaka matched his season high with 21 and the Toronto Raptors pulled away in the fourth quarter to beat the Memphis Grizzlies. Kyle Lowry finished with 16 points, eight assists, six rebounds and two steals for the Raptors. The Raptors shot 47.4 percent from the floor and went 13 of 31 from 3-point range for 41.9 percent. Memphis shot 50 percent from the field while going 9 of 27 from distance for 33.3 percent. Toronto beat Memphis 41-14 on fast-break points. The Grizzlies led 62-57 at halftime, but Ibaka paced the individual scoring with 18 points.
Keys To The Game
1) Prevent Gasol from getting hot who is actually the only player on the team who is a legalized threat to scoring. No one else on the team averages more than 10 points a game.
2) Have to play high tempo, Memphis prefers a slow pace in order to play through Marc Gasol.
3) Demar and Kyle can be the best backcourt by a mile. They can easily put the game away if both get going early.
Let's Go Raptors!!!Tags: None
