As Memphis’ least favorite team, the Los Angeles Clippers face the Grizzlies, I spoke with Clipperholics’ Ryan Snellings for his thoughts on this matchup.

The Grizzlies are currently riding a three-game losing streak into this game. In addition, they’ve lost four of the past six contests.

Coach Dave Fizdale is in the midst of making some lineup adjustments. In their last game against Brooklyn, he replaced Tony Allen and JaMychal Green with Andrew Harrison and Brandan Wright.

The Grizzly fanbase may be critical and confused about Fizdale’s decision, but he doesn’t seem to care.

The lineup drama needs to be out of their heads. They’re two games behind the Los Angeles Clippers for the fifth seed in the West. A win here could make the playoff race even more interesting.
