Hopes for the game:
1. Klay, Poole and Steph realize they can open their eyes when shooting.
2. I know Kuminga has been poor overall, but I still want to see him some. With a 3-1 lead, we can afford to toss him 5 minutes. Will help us in the next round.
3. Poole goes for an F-you 35 in front of a booing Grizzlies crowd.
4. In desperation, the Grizz go to hack-a-Looney, and he calmly makes 5-8 from the line. After the game, he smiles his toothy grin and announces his name change to Wardell Looney.
