Grayson Allen was very good for the Memphis Grizzlies and deserved his extension.
The Grizzlies are better off now and in the future with Grayson Allen gone to Milwaukee.
Desmond Bane and De’Anthony Melton raise the floor and ceiling of Memphis.

Spurs and Bucks went a long way to a 32-all tie after 1Q. Those who paid for the Doug McDermott (11 points) vs. Giannis (8 points) duel are getting their money’s worth so far. – 9:04 PM

Again, it’s early but that felt like a significant momentum swing. Jones swatted on a layup attempt that would have put Spurs up eight, MIL counters with a Robinson jumper, then Bryn Forbes airballs a wide-open 3. – 8:59 PM

This was noticeable yesterday, but the Spurs have gone to Keldon twice in the post now (team leader) in the halfcourt.
