Catch the Memphis Grizzlies

You know what makes lions so deadly as animals?

Once they see that their prey is in a weakened state, they will stop at nothing to make sure that their target is eliminated. Lions hunt with the type of ferocity and hunger that other animals can’t match. It’s that type of effort and passion that the Jazz need to play with if they want to make the playoffs.

Currently, the Memphis Grizzlies are sitting in the fifth spot in the Western Confernce and they are holding on by a thread to stay in the playoff race. With the departure of Jeff Green and Courtney Lee, and the season-ending injury to Marc Gasol, all of the writing is on the wall for them to miss the playoffs.

If Utah wants to make the playoffs, they’re going to have to catch Memphis and take their playoff spot because the Houston Rockets and Portland Trail Blazers will each make the playoffs as well.
