The Utah Jazz and the Memphis Grizzlies played a game of chicken on Saturday that made fans on both sides wonder if they were going to have heart failure. For a large portion of the fourth quarter the two teams traded baskets in what seemed like would continue until the very last possession and the team with the ball last would be the winner. The Jazz pulled away in the end though and won by a more comfortable final score of 121-111.
Give credit to the Memphis Grizzlies. Fans and pundits in general like to talk about the fact that young teams almost never go far in the playoffs and that youth and inexperience usually become a huge weakness for teams once they do make the postseason.
