    Calkins: Draymond Green is Memphis’ No. 1 villain. (If only he would stop saying such nice things.)

    Memphis fans are duty bound to loathe Draymond Green for the rest of the series. Which would be easier if Green didn’t love Xavier Tillman Sr., Jaren Jackson Jr., Young Dolph and Memphis music generally.

    Calkins: It wasn’t just a missed shot for the Grizzlies. It was a missed opportunity.

    Draymond Green was tossed from the game. Ja Morant had a last-second shot to win. So it’s a good thing the Grizzlies don’t let anything bother them. Because Game 1 would be easy to regret.
