Slow start, too many turnovers did in Mavs
MEMPHIS – Over and over again, members of the Dallas Mavericks kept saying Memphis kept speeding them up during the Grizzlies’ 120-106 win over the Mavs in a Western Conference tournament play-in game on Friday night at FedEx Forum.
It was a recurring theme coming from the Mavs, whose season ended prematurely during that unfortunate loss to the Grizzlies.
“They just sped us up and turned us over,” guard Klay Thompson said. “We dug ourselves too big of a hole.
“It sucks. It’s a one-game elimination, there’s no adjustments you can make, there’s no game to look forward to again. It just stinks.”
