On March 27, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season continued. In today's focus game, the Grizzlies host a challenge from defending champion Bucks. Although Alphabet Brother made a comeback today, the Grizzlies still held their opponents steady, and finally defeated the Bucks 127:102.
Against the formidable Bucks, the Grizzlies played extremely well today. They overpowered the Bucks across the board in four quarters, outcoring by 4, 9, 6 and 6 points, respectively. It is no exaggeration to say that the Bucks have nothing to do against the Grizzlies today. Throughout the game, the Grizzlies Bain had 20 points and five assists, Melton had 24 points, Dillon had 19 points, Jaren had 16 points and six rebounds, and Jones had 13 points and 10 rebounds.
After today's win, the Grizzlies have won four straight games, and the record has become 52-23, continuing to rank second in the West and 3.5 wins ahead of the Warriors. With the playoffs locked up, and considering there is little left in the regular season, the Grizzlies are getting closer to finishing no. 2 in the West.
It is worth mentioning that today's victory was still won without Morant. Morant has missed 19 games this season, and in those 19 games, the Grizzlies have a record of 17 wins and 2 losses, with a horribly winning percentage of 89.5%! That win rate rises above the Bulls in 1995-96 (72-10, 87.8 percent) and the 2015-16 Warriors (73-9, 89 percent)!
Because of this, this result made Morant slightly embarrassed. In a previous interview about this phenomenon, Morant replied: "Please respect my teammates! According to the schedule, the Grizzlies will play the Warriors at home on March 29, and they will continue to strive to win to secure the No. 2 position in the West.
