Before the game against the Bulls, the Grizzlies' previous 11-game winning streak had just ended with the Lone Rangers, and it seemed to the outside world that the Grizzlies would not have so much momentum after the end of the game, and the team could lose consecutive games. However, from this game, it turns out that the Grizzlies can still play at a very high level after the winning streak is ended, and against a team like the Bulls in the top of the East, the Grizzlies play very easily, suppressing opponents in almost all aspects of the offensive and defensive ends, and soon achieved a double-digit lead. The Grizzlies were able to respond when facing the Bulls' counterattack, and in the end they also managed to win a big win at home.
The Grizzlies' Morant was average in the first three quarters of the game, but in the final quarter, when the Bulls chased the points, he stepped forward and scored consecutive points to help the team stabilize the lead. Morant had 25 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists on 9-of-17 shooting, and his personal performance was still very stable. As for the rest of the Grizzlies, Bane scored 25 points, while Players such as Clark, Melton, Jalan Jackson and Jones also had very good performances on the court. The team scored in double figures with 6 players in this game, and the overall performance was excellent, and in the face of the incomplete Bulls, the Grizzlies continued their strong performance and successfully won a big victory.
On the Bulls side, the team's current situation is very unsatisfactory, they have suffered a very serious injury problem, the team's starting lineup, except for DeRozan and Vucevic, other players can not play, the team lineup is incomplete, which also led to their recent record crotch. In this game, DeRozan scored 24 points, and Vucevic played a crotch, he only had 7 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists on 2-of-13 shooting.
After losing this game, the Bulls have suffered four straight losses, and three of these four games have suffered a crushing loss, with a particularly large net loss, and consecutive losses have also put the Bulls' first place in the East in jeopardy.
The Bulls are a newly formed team, the team tactical system is not perfect, when a core player in the team lineup is absent, then this will affect the team's overall tactical system. And now the Bulls, not only missed one, their core LaVine and Ball and other players can not play, the team can play very few players, and this is the main reason for the Bulls' recent poor performance. For now, if the Bulls can't get their injured back as soon as possible, the team's losing streak may continue.
