The Triple Team: Jazz defense subpar again as Grizzlies slice and dice Jazz interior for win

The Grizzlies are the worst offensive team in the league. They’re 30th in points per game, 30th in offensive rating, and 30th in pace. So the Jazz, usually an elite defensive team, should have made life even tougher on the Grizzlies.

They did not. Memphis had a 120 offensive rating tonight, scoring 114 points in 95 possessions. That’s simply not good enough from the Jazz’s defense.

Ingles struggled badly. Some of that was because he had to guard Mike Conley at times because the Jazz are out of healthy point guards. This is just a blowby out of nothing, then Ingles compounds his mistake by committing a foul.
