Mike Conley's 11 points in the fourth quarter were not enough to stop the Charlotte Bobcats in Memphis tonight.
Stephen Jackson scored 32 points to lead all scorers in the game.
Conley hit 3 3-pointers and a pair of free throws in the fourth quarter to make it a one-point game. Jackson and Raymond Felton hit a pair of shots in the closing seconds to make it a four point game.
The Grizzlies were led in scoring by Zach Randolph, who had 24, and Rudy Gay, who chipped in 20. Randolph recorded another double-double by grabbing 10 rebounds.
Rudy Gay and O.J. Mayo both had shots at a 3-pointer in the final 10 seconds, but both were off the mark.
Marc Gasol fouled out of the game in the fourth quarter after posting a six-point, seven-rebound effort.
O.J. Mayo finished with 14 points after scoring the team's first 12 of the game.
Hamed Haddadi saw seven minutes of action tonight. He tallied zero points, two rebounds, one assist and an impressive blocked shot.
It was thought Haddadi may see more playing time because he is playing the minutes that rookie Hasheem Thabeet normally would be playing. Thabeet was recently sent back to the NBA's D-League for a 10-day stint in hopes that he would refine his game with more playing time.
The Bobcats sweep the series with the Grizzlies this season, 2-0. The Bobcats had lost three games in a row prior to tonight's victory. This was the fourth game of a four-game road trip for Charlotte.
