The Clippers beat the Grizzlies on Monday in one of the ugliest close games you'll ever see. It was classic Grizzlies style, except Memphis didn't actually end up pulling out the victory.

By the end, any great plays were forgotten, wiped out by the hideousness of the worst good game of the year—except for this one from Jeff Green.

Paul Pierce gets the ball on a fast break, takes off, goes for a layup, but apparently, his legs don't work quite as well as they used to:

Ten years ago, Pierce beats Green down the floor and finishes high enough to the rim that he can at least lay it in. Now, that's not the case anymore. And Green owned him.
