They played well obviously, but LMA and Lillard aren't going to be this bad most of the time. That said, Grizz D was really, really good against those guys tonight. If everybody is playing, Memphis is a handful. Just need Conley and Allen to stay reasonably healthy.
Portland on the other hand clearly behind the 8 ball without Matthews. His ability to play D and stretch the floor on offense completes that team.
I'm happy about the Grizz performance, but long series. Grizz need to win Game 2 to feel good about things. Winning in the Rose Garden is really tough to do.
