The Last Three and Half Minutes


Last night Memphis (3-9) lost to San Antonio (11-2) 101-88, who remain undefeated in Houston. Juan Carlos Navarro played as starter and led Memphis with 16 points, four rebounds and four assists in 35 minutes, while Pau Gasol added 12 and six boards. This is the second game where Navarro leads in points Memphis. The first one was against New Orleans

The last three and half minutes of the 4th quarter were pretty, pretty good for Navarro. He scored 10 points (4-4 from the floor, 1-1 from 3-pt range and 1-1 from the free throw line) and dished-out two assists.

By the way, Navarro has returned to the top 10 rookie ranking. Currently, he ranks as the 8th rookie at si.com and as the 9th at nba.com, where he is mentioned as the Line of the Week player. Good news for him.
