2021 Western Conference Round 1: (1) Utah Jazz vs. (8) Memphis Grizzlies

[Xiao Yao You]

Great series for O'Neale, Conley and Gobert. Mitchell finally stepped up tonite. Too many turnovers. Too bad he can't play like that all the time. Clarkson still sucks. 30 minutes COTY! Not looking good going forward. Conley hurt hamstring which has bothered him the past two seasons. No chance without him

Eric Walden: Mike Conley: “End of 1Q, I felt a little tug in my hammy, came to the bench, made the staff aware, told them I’d try to play through it. It just kept getting sorer. … Seeing how the game was going, and that we might have some days off coming up, pulled the plug tonight.”

Justin Kubatko: Rudy Gobert last night: 23 PTS 15 REB 3 BLK 10-13 FG Gobert is just the second player in NBA history to average at least 15 PPG and 10 RPG while shooting 75% or better from the field in a best-of-seven playoff series. pic.twitter.com/tgcPUkrIKE

"There's no definitive diagnosis right now," Conley said. "I think that we'll wait for tomorrow (Thursday) and reassess and see where we're at and go from there. Obviously, it's the playoff so my mindset is I'm gonna be ready to play. So that's kind of the visual I put in front of myself that I'm gonna be ready, but at the same time we're gonna see what happens in the next few days."

was fun while it lasted. Can only expect Gobert to carry you so far by himself

At least one fan joined the Utah Jazz bandwagon after their five-game series win in the first round: Tee Morant, the father of Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant. Moments after top-seeded Utah ended the series with a 126-110 win Wednesday night, Tee Morant told Donovan Mitchell that he’d be rooting for the Jazz the rest of the playoffs. He said it was because of the way the organization responded to three fans directing racist and vulgar taunts toward Morant’s parents earlier in the series.

“Hey yo, I’m going for y’all right now,” Tee Morant told Mitchell in a brief courtside conversation on the Vivint Arena court. “Why? Y’all didn’t have to do that. Y’all didn’t have to show love to us like that. “This is what I’m saying: When s— goes bad and then you reach out, that’s how you bridge the gap. Most people don’t realize that. That’s why I appreciate you, and that’s why I hope the Jazz win the championship.”

On Thursday morning, Conley underwent an MRI to determine the significance of the injury. And on Thursday evening, the Jazz spilled the beans: The exam revealed a mild right hamstring strain, and the veteran point guard will be re-evaluated before Game 1 of the team’s second-round series.

I am don’t know many people know this but Gobert isn’t just a great rebounder today, he’s one of the best rebounders in NBA history. Now entering his eighth season in the NBA, Gobert has the fifth-highest career rebounding percentage in league history. Not just this season, but all time. He trails only Andre Drummond, Dennis Rodman, Reggie Evans, and DeAndre Jordan all time.
