Re: Game 15: Grizzlies @ Clippers - 11/29/06
Fourth quarter was full of plays that crystalize our season so far.
Stromile Swift tracks down an offensive rebound on the baseline, but gets stripped from behind by (IIRC) Quinton Ross, who saves it in bounds right next to Stro. Instead of grabbing the live damn ball, Stro goes into his Eeyore "Aww, why'd I not get a foul call? Why do the refs not like me? Why does no one like me? I'm Stromile Swift. I used to dunk." routine. He just...stood there...looking at the ball and Ross dives on it and calls a timeout before Swift can even react. Just a pathetic display.
Mike Miller goes to double Elton Brand facing up 20 feet from the basket and just ditches Quinton Ross on the baseline, the only spot on the court Ross can consistently hit a shot. He just straight up leaves him. Ross buries it. Miller is a tool again.
Stromile shoots a 22-footer.
Down 14 with five minutes left, Mike Miller has the ball and...defers to Dahntay Jones? Huh?
Chucky airballs a three-pointer with the defender so far away, you can't even see him over the horizon.
