    Ariza just isn't getting the same wide open looks he had with James AND Dwight. He'll get through this, calm down children of the knee jerk reactions

    Can't McHale draw a decoy play that will get the ball to a player not named Harden? Everyone knew we wanted to give the ball to James. wth

    Glad to see the Refs not blowing the whistle in that last play. Rockets have gotten their share of calls going against them, it evens out.

    He still plays good defense and does other things.

    You can't blame him for shooting open shots, eventually they'll start falling.

    If we want to keep the lead, we can start by not passing it to Ariza unless on fastbreaks.

    Expect grizz to come out of Half time a team possessed.

    They did it last time. We need to out effort their attempt to out effort.

    D-Mo keeps this up and maybe we won't be lacking at the 4 spot.
    Putting it to Boogie and then hopefully continuing a huge game against The Gasol-ZBo Hydra!

    Good thing about Ariza is he steps up not down during the playoffs.
    Opposite for some SFs in this league.

    It's not like we have a bunch of guys on the floor to take shots. He's no our 2/3rd option which means more shots will be taken. Simple basketball

    he's not forcing shots, most of the shots he takes are good looks, they're just not falling

    Stop it. Ariza has been shooting like a jackass but he is doing some great things out there. Ariza Willike have awful shooting games but his +/- is always positive. Its sucks that he is struggling so much but that defense is great.

    You know what James Harden is? Tough. And there's a whole bunch of tough rockets around him. That's why we are winning.

    Refs calling fouls on literally every Grizzlies post up. Doesn't help either.

    Anyone in the lower bowl want to help me move down? It's empty down there and I'm in the 400s with my girlfriend....
