What the hell happened to the Lakers in Memphis to close out the road trip plus that JJ Reddick mic drop moment?

So today I do want to get into JJ getting upset,

storming out of the press room and explain my side of that story. I'm going to get to that in

just a bit. First, I want to get into what happened against the Memphis Grizzlies and why this

went on the way that it did. It was a frustrating night, certainly for the Lakers, and definitely not

Part of it is they're one of the faster-paced teams in the NBA they absolutely fly up and on the floor but we're seeing multiple teams do this now word is out all you have to do if you get a stop with the Lakers run they will
