It could be a preview of a first round matchup, or hopefully a playoff preview of some type.

Especially since the basketball gods always assign them to Clippers, Spurs, and/or Thunder for the playoffs.

Yeah. I am strongly considering it because of the form the Grizzlies are in at the moment. Could make for a good game.

Another win. Grizzlies looking good.

Mike Conley ankle sprain could be pretty costly.

I would be surprised if he plays tomorrow against the Bucks.
It might make them less likely to drop a game they should win.



6 straight road wins, all opponents at 90 or less.

Right now, Grizzlies in 8th place (although if Mavs beat Kings, they go back into 8th).

Back to 9th in the West, but their record is good enough for 3rd in the East.

3rd.

And I'm sure whatever WC team ends up in 9th, they are going to have the same complaints.

I am not worried about were the Grizzlies are in the standings right now. They are playing as good as the best teams in the league. If they keep playing how they are they will make at least 6th.

If they make it to 6th, it means the Clippers will finish 3rd.


If Conley's ankle is serious, that could be a problem.

Report is he could be out for February.

Another win. This team is on a roll right now. Unfortunately due to mother nature there is no way I will be going to the game on Monday night in OKC.

Didn't look real good until they had to start playing.

All-Star break is good timing for the Conley injury.

Lackluster showing tonight. Hoped they could steal a win but they were playing OKC.

Interesting match up tonight, and I always find it interesting on how they match up with Dirk. I could see Gasol on Dirk, and vice versa because Gasol is such a non threat on offense.

Delambert will match on Zach and give him some problems because of his length.


Monta loves to play against the home town Grizzlies.

Could be not good.

Shooting 50% from the field and down by 13.

1 ft attempt all game but still eek out a win against the Hawks.

And the free throw was on an illegal defense call.

First game in shot clock era to have that.

3 very winnable games before the All Star Break.

Lost to the Cavs.
Gigem Trevas

Barely got the win.

and picked up game on Mavs and Suns.

Need to win at Orlando tomorrow, hope for a Mavs loss tomorrow against Pacers, and could really get help from Heat over Warriors.

Come back with a healthy Conley after ASG.
Gigem Trevas

Another close win to go into the All Star Break. Hopefully when Conley returns the team will make a push for the playoffs.

According to Woj, T'Wolves and Grizzlies discussing deal that includes JJ Barea and Chase Budinger for Tayshaun Prince and Tony Allen.

That would be pretty ballsy to unload Tony Allen, a huge fan favorite, but would love the two they would be adding. Good riddance to Tayshaun.

Missing the game tonight. I was given tickets to Dallas vs Miami. Excited to see LeBron play for the first time. The greatest players I have personally seen in my 22 years so far are Kobe, Shaq, Nash, Dirk, Durant, Duncan, Parker, Ginobli, McGrady, Pierce, Allen, and Garnett.

Lots of broskis here donning Carmelo and Jr Smith jerseys, complete with hat on backwards or stocking cap.

Sunglasses on of course. Chains or tattoos optional

Just saw John Starks jersey girl sitting by guy wearing Allen Houston Jersey.

Did you wear your LeBron Jersey to the game to fit in with the heat fans?

Exciting win in Memphis.

Enjoyed an entertaining game between Dallas and Miami. Grizzlies won as well.
Gigem Trevas
How long do you want to ignore this user?
No, I did not Iowa. They were everywhere though. Whenever LeBron would make a shot or dunk the "Miami fans" went bezerk.

Got another win tonight.

Another big win, but no ground made up really.

James Johnson had some outstanding dunks.
Hoping they can retain him this passion.

Tony hada nice return game

If they can stay healthy I like Their chances to win enough games for what would traditionally would be good enough for the playoffs, but I don't know if even 50 wins is enough or even 51.

The Suns keep winning, amazingly.

I think it is the Warriors that can be caught.

Effin Double post.

I'll use this one to say that I'm happy neither Ken Mauer nor that Benny guy are reefing tonight's Lakers game.

Rodney Mott
David Jones
Eli Roe

Apparently Grizz claimed Beno Udrih off of waivers after NY waived him, which I believe is different from picking him up as a free agent.

Not sure how that matters for his contract.
