David Roddy answering the question “What if a tank could shoot three-pointers?” – 10:59 PM

Kevin Pelton @kpelton
Grizzlies rookie David Roddy is 6-of-27 from 3-point range after making his first two attempts tonight in Portland and I swear I’ve seen all six of his makes. – 10:58 PM

Wrote that the Houston game was Nurkic’s best of the season. That might be subject to change. He’s been phenomenal tonight. – 10:53 PM

Nurkic is dominating out there.
We asked this on the radio today. Who else comes to mind that seems or seemed to always play well against the Grizzlies? – 10:49 PM

Grizzlies 30, Blazers 23: end of first quarter. 10 points, 2 rebounds for @Jusuf Nurkic. MEM shooting 50 percent from the field, POR 38 percent. – 10:41 PM

Mike Richman @mikegrich
I don’t think I understand the rule enough but Keon Johnson goaltended his own clean block? He simply jumped too high and had to be penalized. – 10:41 PM

Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
That wasn’t a goaltend, but also Brandon Clarke got the rebound under the basket and probably scored the layup anyway. – 10:41 PM

Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
David Roddy has been playing some good basketball lately. – 10:39 PM

I don’t know what Memphis did to Nurkic… – 10:27 PM

Nurk is Portland’s offense – 10:27 PM

Sean Highkin @highkin
The Blazers’ first made basket of the night, four minutes into the game, is … a Nurkic three. – 10:25 PM

Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Grizzlies out to a 12-2 lead.
Ja Morant has 6 quick points.
After all that talk about the Memphis defense the past two days, they’ve held Portland without a field goal on eight shots. – 10:22 PM

Memphis Grizzlies @memgrizz
10-2 run to get the party started pic.twitter.com/ZVjqhwLM4m – 10:21 PM

Damichael Cole @DamichaelC
That zone has been very effective for Portland this season, but a lineup with Ja Morant coming downhill and guys cutting off Steven Adams is the type of offense that could expose that defense. – 10:19 PM

Casey Holdahl @CHold
A less than ideal start here for Portland – 10:18 PM

Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Great start for Santi Aldama, rebounding, cutting, scoring. – 10:17 PM

Kyrie Irving, @Brooklyn Nets y @ADL publican una declaración conjunta en la que Irving nunca ofrece disculpas a los que injurió, tras una reunión entre las partes a la cual no asistió. Dejó que su padre y madrastra (representante) hablaran y escucharan por él. @CoachCMorales pic.twitter.com/ulgPU1dehs – 7:56 PM
