Cautious Grizzlies know what its like to be 'owned'

The Grizzlies would be lying if they didn't acknowledge knowing how this feels.

One team just can't seem to beat the other.

It's a matchup problem of the worst kind.

Healthy. Injured. Regulation. Overtime.

The Portland Trail Blazers have more All-Stars on their roster and still can't get enough basketball brilliance to align for a win against the Grizzlies. Memphis not only holds a 2-0 lead as it enters Game 3 of a first-round playoff series against Portland, but the Griz have won the teams' past six meetings and 11 of 12 in the series.
