0:00.0	This is the daymore NBA podcast brought to you by Blue Wire Podcasts.
0:18.0	Coming at a Thursday night from Memphis, where I just watched the wolves lose to the
0:22.8	Grizzlies by eight.
0:24.3	Final score 116 to 108.
0:27.5	The wolves definitely fumbled this one away late in the game.
0:30.3	You saw that if you watched it, but I do got to say, I think the wolves match up well
0:34.6	with the Grizzlies.
0:35.4	I really do think if these two teams play 10 times

1:12.6	The wolves were up by seven at halftime tonight, and they really should have won this game if they hadn't blown their execution down the stretch.
1:21.4	If the wolves do somehow get the sixth seed, I think you'd love to be, you'd love Memphis to be the three seed,
1:29.1	you know,
1:29.3	far more than a matchup against Phoenix or Golden State
1:32.6	who are the one and two right now.
1:33.9	And I think far more than you'd like a matchup against Utah or even Denver.
