Right now, the Grizz have a strong lead over Charlotte 77-62 in the mid fourth quarter.

Missed this game. What was the story here? It's a nice road win if we can hold on, as Charlotte is much improved.

Tough game. We looked gassed - reeling from the back-to-back with a late game last night plus losing an hour in travel I'd guess. Credit to the Bobcats though, they're scrappy and never quit - much improved from last year.

Pretty much what you said jefe. I watched the game and Charlotte did what they had to do by playing a scrappy game and trying to put enough pressure on the Grizzlies to tire them out on a back to back.

But Memphis looks better on the road than in past years and kept their poise just enough to keep the Bobcats at bay. No fourth quarter meltdown even though you could see them looking a little tired towards the end.

But I also have to give Charlotte credit. Their new coach has them looking much better and playing as a team, so much more than last season. Given they have a good GM in Rich Cho who doesn't make desperation moves I think there's a good future for that team.

I am dissapointed in Biyumbo though. He isn't showing me much improvement from his rookie season. I think it might take a couple more years for him to fulfil his resume.

Byron Mullens shoots the ball way too much.
