The Grizzlies faltered down the stretch once again and lost their 5th straight game. Cedric Coward led the team with 19 points and 11 rebounds, and the defense looked improved with Zach Edey, but a weak 4th quarter and Harrison Barnes outplaying Jaren Jackson Jr was too much to overcome.To discuss this loss, and the overall state of the Grizzlies, including Tuomas Iisalo's shaky record, the attitude of Ja Morant, and the goals of this team, Keith is joined by Chris Herrington of The Daily Memphian.Also covered: Dillon Brooks and Marcus Smart sound off about the Grizzlies!To join the listener slack and support the creation of this show, please sign-up at Patreon.com/FastbreakBreakfastUse promo code FBBF and get up to $1000 in bonus cash at Underdog Fantasy: play.underdogfantasy.com/p-fastbreak-breakfastCheck out the NBA and Grizzlies merchandise at teepublic.com/stores/fastbreak-breakfastGet $20 off your first purchase at SeatGeek with promo code: FASTBREAKBREAK
