The Memphis Grizzlies fed off the choice words of their coach and a fired-up home crowd to get their first series win. Now things get tougher.
"It gets harder and harder as you go along, so, yes, Game 4 will be our toughest game we've played this year," Memphis veteran Vince Carter said after Friday's practice, as the Grizzlies prepare for Saturday's game with the San Antonio Spurs at FedEx Forum in Memphis.
Although the Spurs had more attempts (28, to Memphis' 20) from the free throw line in Game 3 on Thursday, two days after an anti-officials tirade from Grizzlies coach David Fizdale, Memphis was able to limit San Antonio star Kawhi Leonard and beat the Spurs 105-94.
